ALTRA Women's Olympus 5 Mid GTX Trail Running Shoe

Altra Running was founded on an innovative approach to running shoes - an approach that took the brand from the back room of a specialty running store to the forefront of roads and trails across the world. With innovation at the core, the brand's founders created their first shoe with the help of a toaster oven, marking the start of Altra's signature shoe construction to promote natural movement, a design that has kept the brand thriving for over a decade.

Unleashing human potential by inspiring the world to move naturally is what Altra Running is all about. The brand's purpose is built around discovery, joy, responsibility, natural movement, and helping individuals find their full potential. Altra's wide-lacing system gave rise to the brand's signature FootShape design, which encourages natural foot movement. While a household toaster oven inspired the founders, FootShape and Balanced Cushioning have since inspired thousands to unleash their human potential - this is the foundation of Altra Running's innovative, disruptive thinking.

The Olympus 5 Hike Mid GTX is Altra's latest offering, designed to keep adventurers protected and comfortable on all-terrain hikes. Featuring a waterproof GORE-TEX construction guaranteed to keep the elements at bay, the Olympus 5 also boasts Vibram's Megagrip outsole, providing unparalleled grip on both wet and dry surfaces. Altra's Original FootShape Fit gives the wearer's feet ample room to spread out and move naturally, ensuring all-day comfort during extended outdoor excursions.

Altra's Balanced Cushioning platform positions the heel and forefoot at an equal distance from the ground, promoting better alignment, form, and a low-impact landing. The brand's signature FootShape design addresses the biological differences between men's and women's feet, providing a more customized fit and feel.

Alongside the Olympus 5 Hike Mid GTX, Altra offers a range of versatile footwear options, including the Lone Peak ALL-WTHR 2 Low, Lone Peak Hiker 2, Lone Peak ALL-WTHR 2 Mid, and the Olympus 5 Low GTX. Each model features unique outsole technologies, cushioning levels, and waterproofing capabilities to suit a variety of outdoor pursuits.

Whether tackling rugged trails or navigating city streets, Altra Running's innovative footwear solutions are designed to unleash the human potential in every step. From the brand's humble beginnings in a specialty running store to its current position as a leader in natural movement and performance footwear, Altra's commitment to discovery, joy, and responsibility continues to inspire athletes and adventurers alike to explore the world on their own terms.
