Redefining what a daily trainer with a natural foot shape design means, the AltraFWD Experience is the first Altra shoe without the signature zero-drop offset, bringing the brand's natural running philosophies and foot-shaped toebox to a whole new audience. Pairing a rocker midsole geometry with an all-new 4 mm heel-toe offset, the AltraFWD Experience delivers a smooth ride that effortlessly rolls the runner forward through their stride. The well-cushioned midsole features a compression-molded EVA foam that offers a comfortable and responsive underfoot feel without adding unnecessary weight. Meanwhile, the rubber outsole is designed with a flex groove pattern that offers versatile grip and added flexibility.
First impressions review: Picked up at a re-supply spot at REI for 60 bucks. New version out (Flow), but little change from this model. A light, nicely rockered and transition running shoe. Only concern is Altra outsole durability.
