MIDSOLE Altra EGO™ Midsole Foam: Provides a soft, bouncy, and luxurious ride that maintains its lively responsiveness even after heavy mileage. Signature FootShape Fit: Features an anatomically shaped toe box that gives your toes ample room to splay naturally—offering welcome relief for runners with wider forefeet, bunions, or Morton's neuroma. Balanced Zero-Drop Platform: Keeps your heel and forefoot at equal distance from the ground, promoting correct spinal alignment, natural posture, and efficient midfoot striking. OUTSOLE Reinforced Rubber Outsole: Redesigned outsole layout enhances traction and durability across road surfaces without adding bulk or stiffness.
