I recently used mine for a 50 mile event over the South Downs and although I never had any issues with heel slippage the issue I had was the aggressive rocker. It felt like it was digging up into the arches of my feet. I'll continue to use them but probably for shorter events in the future

Definitely feels like it's made for speed over comfort. I just finished a 100 mile race in them, and if I could do it again I would probably switch to a more comfortable shoe in the 2nd half.

Great overview, thank you! Loved your video on the Catamount 3 too. Is the Adidas as good at uphills as the Catamount? I love uphill running in the Catamounts but could use more cushion for longer distance and downhills. Thanks!

I put in tongue pads to prevent lace bite. Helps with lockdown as well. These are now my go-to trail shoe.

[@seekingultra4333]

I will have to look into those!

I have the non ultra variant for now, but got blister on the heel after few runs, I really hope they add some padding for their future line of shoe, else I doubt I will go for the ultra variant

[@seekingultra4333]

It's annoying isn't it? Have you tried a runners knot? It tightened up the heel a bit for me.

[@TeoElryns]

@@seekingultra4333 yes I've done my last run in the runners knot, I got bandaid on the back, I think the skin will get used to it with time, just need to give it time, but I do believe the value of the shoe would've been much better with 2grams cushion on heel. Also I am not sure if the normal is just as wide as ultra, I measured 4.5 inches widest forefoot area, but it doesn't have that line in the middle between the lugs, so I believe ultra is slightly wider.
