Altra Timp 5 GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes
Perfect for trail runners and hikers alike, this stable, waterproof trail running shoe is a dependable choice that keeps feet dry during challenging trail adventures.
GORE-TEX Upper
Providing your feet with optimised comfort across changing terrains and adventurous trails, the Timp 5 GORE-TEX utilise a GORE-TEX upper. The materials are highly breathable to prevent overheating and allow a constant supply of airflow to travel through the shoes, reducing the risks of sweat and moisture build-up. Alongside this, the materials work to keep feet dry from wet and changing weather, by preventing water from entering the garment, therefore helping to reduce the risks of wet, soggy feet. Altra's Standard FootShape toe box encourages the toes to relax and spread naturally, whilst allowing the big toe to remain in a straight position. This construction also enhances stability during uphill ascents and downhill descents when traversing the trails. The shoes have abrasion-resistant overlays that are placed in high-wearing areas, particularly across the toes, to prevent damage during knocks and bumps. A traditional lace-up construction, for a close, locked-in fit, preventing in-shoe slipping from occurring. Working alongside this is a cushioned tongue and collar which reduces the risks of irritation or chafing.
Altra EGO MAX Midsole
The Timp 5 GORE-TEX utilises Altra's own EGO MAX midsole compound to ensure an extremely lightweight, luxurious level of performance, with added bounce for outstanding cushioning and in-shoe comfort. This soft compound prevents the risks of distraction or discomfort alongside a Balanced Cushioning that places your forefoot and heel at the same distance from the ground, therefore keeping your foot in a natural position and providing a low-impact landing, to protect your joints.
Vibram Megagrip Outsole
To ensure unparalleled grip and traction across a variety of surfaces and multiple terrains, the Timp 5 GORE-TEX utilises a Vibram Megagrip outsole compound. This is a high-performing rubber outsole which adapts well to the ground you're traversing across, and works to form a solid bond with the surface below, to keep you in control of your adventures, and keeping things as lightweight as possible. Adorning the outsole are deep lugs that provide an optimised grip, ensuring a stable base even in muddy conditions.
