Fit Footshape™ Toe Box
Allows your toes to relax and spread out naturally, giving you even more comfort and stability on both ascents and descents.

Balanced Cushioning™
The Balanced Cushioning™ platform allows the heel and forefoot to be placed at an equidistant level from the ground to improve positioning and alignment and cushion ground impact.

Altra EGO™ PRO
Altra EGO™ foam has been a loveable staple of the Altra line. Altra EGO™ PRO is the lightest foam midsole, designed for long distance running and providing cushioning with every step, mile after mile. You no longer have to choose between cushioning and responsiveness: this lightweight foam gives you both.

Active stance rocker
Measuring the foot from heel to forefoot, the rocker is positioned at 65% of the length of the sole, making it the most extended rocker model in the Altra collection. A specially designed profile to ensure an efficient take-off with every step.

Propel Carbon half-plate
The exclusive carbon fibre Propel Plate is designed to flex naturally along with the foot, ensuring greater thrust and propulsion with every stride.
