Description

Comfort comes first. The Olympus 7 feels soft and roomy and is mainly made for long days on the trails. The cushioning helps limit the load on your feet and legs when you're out for hours on end.

Grip gives confidence on varied terrain. On wet rocks, loose ground and rocky paths the shoe stays controlled. You notice this especially later in a long trail run, when fatigue builds and stable foot placement matters more.

Choose it for distance, not speed. The roomy fit gives your toes freedom and is pleasant when your feet swell a bit during ultras or long hikes. Looking for lots of ground feel or a fast shoe for short technical races? Then a more direct model makes more sense.

Strong for long days outdoors. Choose it when comfort, grip and room matter more than a sharp, playful ride.

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.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Olympus 7 made for?

For trail running, long days on the trail and hiking. Lots of cushioning (33 mm stack) with the Altra EGO MAX midsole and Vibram Megagrip with TractionLug lugs.

What's new on the Olympus 7?

The EGO MAX midsole is 15% lighter and 10% softer than before. Plus a softer tongue, an integrated comfort collar and molded TPU overlays.

Can I attach a gaiter?

Yes, the shoe has a GaiterTrap: a hook-and-loop tab at the heel where you attach a gaiter. Gaiters are sold separately.

How does the Olympus 7 fit?

Original FootShape fit: Altra's roomiest toe box, and zero drop. It runs slightly small, so Altra recommends going half a size up.

Fijne vering en super veel ruimte voor de tenen.

Ik gebruik deze schoenen voor wandelingen over onverharde paden. Ben op dit moment in de Harz (Duitsland) onderweg. Op de stenige bergpaden is de vering erg comfortabel. Voor alpine trajecten geef ik de voorkeur aan een hoge schoen.
