From Backcountry.com:
"For the wet, uneven trail conditions of late fall, mid-winter, and early spring, the La Sportiva Men's Wildcat GTX Trail Running Shoe gives you full waterproof breathable protection on a stable cushioned platform. The supportive yet flexible Airmesh upper features a TPU film to resist moisture and a Gore-Tex membrane to ensure it stays out. A molded nylon shank stabilizes your foot over rough terrain, and the single-density midsole adds cushioning for long days. La Sportiva finished off the Wildcat with a Frixion sticky rubber outsole and its Impact Brake System, which uses opposing lugs to slow your speed on steep descents."

"Very nice shoe. Very cushioned as stated. I had been running in a La Sportiva Fireblade during the summer. These shoes are more bulky for sure, but they are a better everyday shoe.

I would race in the Fireblades, but use the Wildcats everyday."
