Compression resistant heel counters maintain shape through impacts

Although many enthusiasts know them for zero-drop minimalist styles, recent times have seen them exploring new territory. One such instance is the Olympus trail runner, now in a fifth generation. With this silhouette; 'maximalism' is the mantra the Olympus 5 comes packing plenty of everything.

The compression moulded midsole is stacked with 30mm of foam under-foot, but still maintains the zero-drop ethos Altra is known for. The upper is constructed on the Original Footshape last, providing maximum toebox room for your battered toes. This roomy fit corresponds to a wide outsole equipped with Vibram Megagrip rubber moulded with Trailclaw canted lugs for max traction.

At-home hiking all day or running through the wilderness, the Olympus 5 is a game changer if you haven't experienced the Cadillac-like room of Altra Footshape.

Rounded toes give extra space for comfort
