The Altra Olympus 5 at 2 Foot Adventures is a high-cushioned shoe specifically designed to offer unparalleled comfort on backpacking adventures, long-distance runs, and endurance activities. Here are some key features of the Altra Olympus 5:
Maximum Cushioning: The shoe boasts a substantial 33 mm stack height of Altra EGO™ MAX midsole, providing a plush and luxurious ride. This high level of cushioning helps absorb impact forces and reduces the strain on your joints during long-distance runs or extended periods of walking.
Original FootShape™ Fit: Like other Altra shoes, the Olympus 5 incorporates the Original FootShape™ Fit, allowing for natural foot movement. The shoe has a roomy toe box that lets your toes spread out and splay naturally, enhancing stability and providing added comfort during long hours on the trail.
Rocker Shape: The shoe's rocker shape promotes a more efficient and propulsive toe-off, making each stride feel smooth and effortless. This design feature aids in maintaining a natural running gait and can enhance overall running performance.
Lightweight and Breathable Upper: The Olympus 5 features an ultra-lightweight and breathable upper, keeping your feet cool and dry during intense activities. The breathable materials help to regulate temperature and prevent excessive moisture buildup, reducing the risk of discomfort and blisters.
Rubber Outsole: The shoe is equipped with a durable rubber outsole that provides excellent traction on various surfaces, ensuring stability and grip while on the road or trail. This feature enhances your confidence and allows you to tackle different terrains with ease.
Zero-Drop Platform: The Olympus 5 has a 0mm drop, meaning there is no height difference between the heel and the toe. This design promotes a more natural and low-impact stride, which can be beneficial for runners who prefer a minimalist or barefoot-like running experience.
Lightweight Design: Weighing in at just 11 oz / 312 g, the Olympus 5 is a lightweight shoe that offers a balance between cushioning and performance. This makes it suitable for a range of activities, including speed workouts, long-distance runs, and backpacking adventures.
Whether you're training for a marathon, embarking on a challenging hiking trail, or simply seeking exceptional comfort during your outdoor activities, the Altra Olympus 5 at 2 Foot Adventures aims to provide a plush and supportive experience for your feet.
