Get sleek support that guides your feet in a straight line, only when you need it. Stay comfy out there with lightweight, plush cushion and an engineered mesh upper. It’s the first Altra shoe inspired by and developed with an Altra athlete. Two-time Olympian Kara Goucher knows a thing or two about a comfortable running shoe and she gave us a hand (and her feet) when designing and testing this shoe. A shoe that blurs the line between support shoe and everyday trainer. We slimmed it down, so it’s lighter in weight and sleeker, but still supportive. Our GuideRail™ technology gives you guidance when you need it. Experience responsiveness with a side of plushness in Altra EGO™ MAX midsole foam. Invite your feet to spread out with room for your toes, and a secure midfoot, with zero drop, which lets you move the way you were designed to.

Jason ★★★★★

Been dealing with plantar fasciitis for months and these are the first pair that don't leave my heels aching after a long shift. The cushioning is surprisingly plush for how light they feel, and the straight-line guidance actually helps when I get tired and my form slips.

Ruby V. ★★★★★

The engineered mesh upper breathes really well during my morning runs, and the plush cushioning feels soft without slowing me down. I notice my stride staying straighter when I get tired, which is exactly when I used to lose form.

Christopher ★★★★★

I've been dealing with overpronation for years and these are the first shoes that guide my foot without feeling like I'm being forced into a mold. The plush cushioning is noticeable from the first step, and the engineered mesh keeps my feet from overheating on longer runs. They're noticeably lighter
