SPECS

FOOTSHAPE™
Our signature FootShape™ comfort gives your feet more space to sit naturally and is designed to address biological differences in men's and women's feet.
BALANCED CUSHIONING™
Our Balanced Cushioning™ platform positions your heel and forefoot at an equal distance from the ground, encouraging better alignment and better form.
ALTRA EGO™ PRO
The best of both worlds. You no longer have to choose between cushion and response – this lightweight foam gives you both.
CARBON HALF-PLATE
We partnered with carbon fiber expert Carbitex™ to design a plate that naturally flexes with your foot, providing added boost and propulsion.
ROCKER SHAPE
Our rocker shape is designed to give the feeling of being propelled forward with each step and provides an efficient toe-off without taking away from your natural stride.
