Customer reviews
This appears to be a great shoe, but is very narrow and will have to be returned.
My third pair, great approach and day hiking shoe. Zero break in--take off right out of the box. Sturdy enough to support carrying overnight pack yet light and comfortable. Need to orde 1/2 size up to fit. I wear 10.5, need an 11.
I also have the non-GTX Wildcat and wear them all the time, but wanted something more suitable for winter and so far they've been great.
The 11's that I received are a normal fit 10-10.5 according to my feet. The shoe feels like a substantial crossover hiking shoe which is why I'm returning and ordering a half size up.
The only thing wrong with the Wildcat was that the side of the shoe cut sharply into my ankle
I have a narrow heel and the way this shoe holds the heel in absolutely secure and perfect. The grip is incredible. The shoes will take a little breaking in. Insole is perfect as-is.
Fit was okay but there seemed to be a wrinkle inside in the lining that I felt along my foot. That's why they were returned.
The La Sportiva Wildcat is one of the best running/hiking shoes out there. I have large feet for a woman (I normally wear a women's 11) and ordering these in a men's size was necessary after they made the women's sizes smaller. I have these same shoes in an earlier version in the women's 11 (a 43) and they fit nicely. To update, I had to go up to a 44 and order a men's version. These shoes are light, very stable and supportive, and snug through the heel and arch with a wide roomy toe box. Exactly what I want in a trail shoe. I can fully spread my toes while the rear of the shoe is snug and very stable. I used these shoes for backpacking, running and trail running and they do well for all three. I just took them for a run/walk in deep, wet slush and my feet were warm and dry. And absolutely GREAT all-around shoe.
These ran a bit small and didn't have as much arch support as my son needs. They also have a fairly thick heel that he didn't like the feel of.
