Mens Altra Running Shoes

Altra starts with the shape of the foot.

The brand's FootShape fit leaves more room around the toes while keeping the heel and midfoot secure. That does not mean every Altra is simply a wide shoe, and the range is much broader than the old zero-drop reputation suggests.

For road running, Torin handles everyday mileage, Escalante keeps things more flexible and stripped back, and Experience Flow brings a 4mm drop and rocker into the range.

On the trails, Lone Peak is the familiar all-rounder, Timp adds cushioning and Olympus pushes further into long-run protection.

For faster days, Vanish Carbon 3 takes Altra into full race-shoe territory with PEBA cushioning, a split carbon-fibre plate and a 4mm drop, while still keeping a recognisably Altra-shaped forefoot.

Start with the run, then choose the cushioning, drop and fit that suits it.
