Women’s Smooth Trail Shoes

Catamount Agil

Cruise up, down, and over technical trails at top speed. Nitro-infused cushioning, agile & responsive design and a locked-in fit deliver distraction-free performance so you can focus on pushing your limits.

Catamount Agil features

The new SpeedVault Trail Plate is designed to propel you to top speeds on race day. It also works with nitrogen-infused DNA FLASH v2 midsole technology to create a lightweight, responsive ride.

The midsole and outsole are precision engineered for speed — lower stack height and responsive underfoot feel allow you to remain agile at top speeds and tackle dynamic terrain. The articulated SpeedVault Trail Plate responds to you and helps you maintain your footing.

Lightweight mesh upper contours to foot for second-skin feel and can be cinched down for a fine-tuned fit.

Light and springy cushioning that propels you forward.

Go fast on the trails in the Catamount 4. Designed for all-terrain traction and agility, the shoe also has a plate to aid in uphill running — so you can gain elevation without losing speed.
