Altra shoes combine the cushioning & support of traditional shoes with the form improving, impact reducing benefits of going without a shoe. Runners think differently. Running clears the mind, rejuvenates the body, and frees the soul. We know because we RUN! From 100 meters to 100 miles we have run and raced the distance.
