Altra

Relative newcomer Altra broke through a saturated market by introducing three radical design changes to traditional running shoes: 1) a Footshape™ toe box to accommodate the natural shape of the foot; 2) Fit4Her™ technology tailored to the unique anatomy of the female foot; and 3) a ZeroDrop™ platform that keeps a runner's heel and toes even with the ground.

Altra's most common Footshape™ Fit, right in the middle of Original and Slim.

Find It In: A range of shoes including road and trail.

The FootShape™ Fit that started it all, Original is the roomiest of Altra's three options.

Find It In: Road shoes and classic trail models.

Altra's slimmest-fitting option still allows room for your toes to spread out naturally.

Find It In: The Rivera.
