text: Bought a pair of GTX to run in the rain during winter, mainly because my Peregrine trail shoes are a bit too rigid for long distances on paved roads (unless there is snow) and nothing will wear down the upper mesh of regular sports shoes like rain and mud.<br />The GTX will keep your feet dry, but grip could have been improved vs. normal Kinvara on wet roads. Performance on muddy stretches is not good.<br />If Saucony were to release a pair in between the GTX and Peregrine, I would probably go for those instead.
