Description

Comfort comes first. The Olympus 7 feels soft and roomy and is primarily intended for long days on the trails. The cushioning helps limit the strain on your feet and legs when you walk for hours on end.

Grip provides confidence on varying terrain. On wet stones, loose ground, and rocky paths, the shoe continues to feel controlled. You notice this especially later in a long trail run, when fatigue sets in and stable foot placement becomes more important.

Choose it for distance, not speed. The roomy fit gives your toes freedom of movement and is comfortable when your feet swell slightly during ultras or long hikes. If you are looking for a lot of ground feel or a fast shoe for short, technical races, a more direct model would be a better choice.

Sturdy for long days outdoors. Especially choose this choice if comfort, grip, and space outweigh a sharp and playful running feel.

Why Altra?

Altra was one of the first brands we added to our range. Not because it was the easiest choice, but because we believed from the start that trail runners benefit from more choice than just the traditional trail shoe.

With the signature FootShape™ fit, your toes get room to move naturally, while the Zero Drop™ philosophy provides many runners with a different, more natural running experience. That isn't the right choice for everyone, but for the right trail runner, Altra can really make a difference. Meanwhile, Altra is also making shoes with heel drop.

Bee Trail.NL That is why we sell Altra not because it is different, but because it simply works better for many runners. Especially if you run long distances, have wide feet, or consciously choose a natural way of running. That is why Altra has had a permanent place in our range from the very beginning.

Great suspension and plenty of toe room.

I use these shoes for walks on unpaved paths. I am currently traveling in the Harz (Germany). On the rocky mountain paths, the cushioning is very comfortable. For alpine trails, I prefer a high boot.
