Jeanette Brass's review
Jack of All Trade! True to size. The lugs and outsole is solid in the snow and mud, and rocky trails and boulders. Very comfortable to run ultras in. My go to trail and ultra shoe! The drainage feature is amazing in foot care. After submerging in river crossings, my feet dry within 15-20 minutes.

New version of GS:TAM, the 2 has a sleek low profile that I'm mildly obsessed with when it comes to quick, confident movement on less technical trails or softer surfaces like dirt and sand. The lugs give a high amount of security when moving quicky on trail, especially on fast ascents and descents. Fits like a glove, without feeling tight, in all the right places.
