Altra was founded on the belief that running was for relieving stress, not putting more stress on your body. That runners deserved a shoe that could help them run healthier, run further, run faster, and run for a lifetime.
From humble beginnings in the back of a running store, they were tested and refined in running’s toughest conditions. Now, Altra can be seen at every level across the globe. To us, running has never just been running. It’s an escape, a challenge, a community… it’s a slingshot for the rest of your life. Runners didn’t need another running shoe. What they needed was so much bigger, so we built it.
ALTRA’S NATURAL FIT
All of our shoes are made with room for your toes, so they’re free to move naturally. With room for your toes, you get a comfortable running experience. Allowing your toes to spread gives you confidence in every strike. Why confine your toes?
Our zero to low drop shoes are built to place your foot in a natural position. We give you a stable and confident foundation to run on. Why run in heels?
