Try them on before trips
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hate these shoes. They look cute and are good for mountain walking but the fit is so tight. I really should have tried these on before my trip because now I can't return them and am stuck with them. This is the size I have in all my other shoes and the fit is definitely not the same. Now I know try them on as soon as I get them or go get them from a store. 😩

Sad! going back
I have had and loved all prior Catamounts, but this version hurt my heel after a 30 min break-in walk on the trail. First noticed sock slipping, then the achilles/ankle soreness started. I like a firmer ground feel, but honestly these felt stiff and tight in the forefoot. I can deal with the thin tongue, but agree with other reviewer who said it feels like stiff plastic. Boohoo, Brooks, all my favorites have disappeared from your lineup. Not sure how much longer I can keep my cat 3's going...

Beautiful, but didn’t love them…
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wanted to love them, but they are very narrow and stiff. Sticking with the Cascadias.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable except for the tongue which is made of a rubber like material and as a result it catches and grabs onto my socks, which makes it attack difficult to put on
