Launched in 2009 in Utah, USA, Altra Footwear was born out of a desire to "fix or mend" broken conventions in running shoes, as its name is inspired by the Latin word "ALTERA." Over the years, Altra has introduced numerous innovations, including its core technologies and advanced features designed to enhance both road and trail running experiences.
Among these technologies are the Maxtrac™ outsole and TrailClaw™ lugs, which deliver exceptional traction and grip across varying terrains, making shoes like the Lone Peak 5 a go-to choice for trail enthusiasts. Altra’s midsole advancements are headlined by the Altra EGO™ midsole, known for its lightweight, highly responsive, and durable properties. This was further elevated with the introduction of the EGO™ MAX in 2021, starting with the Torin 5, offering an even lighter, more resilient, and energetic ride.
One standout in Altra's trail line-up is the Altra Timp 4, a lightweight, versatile shoe engineered for multi-terrain performance. Whether you're tackling rugged trails or enjoying a leisurely hike, the Timp 4 ensures a comfortable ride with superior energy return. This updated version features a fully enhanced midsole with EGO™ MAX foam, combining durability, lightness, and responsiveness comparable to road racing shoes, all while maintaining a soft, plush feel underfoot.
For added durability and protection, the Timp 4 sports a new breathable mesh upper and reinforced collar, providing a secure, snug fit. The outsole continues to deliver top-notch grip, thanks to its MaxTrac™ compound and redesigned multi-directional lugs, making it suitable for cross-country trails and maintaining excellent wear resistance.
