Altra Timp 5 Trail Running Shoe - Women's

Run longer and land softer on any terrain in the Altra Timp 5 Trail Running Shoe

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I have been putting the Altra Timp 5 Trail Running Shoe through long mountain runs with mixed terrain including wet rock slabs, rooted singletrack, and muddy switchbacks and it handled every surface with confidence. The Vibram Megagrip outsole is noticeably stickier on wet rock than anything else I have worn at this stack height, and the EGO Max foam keeps the ride plush through the back half of a long effort when the legs are tired and every footstrike matters more. The zero drop and roomy toe box let my feet splay and settle naturally without any of the compression that traditional shoes build up over long miles."

Long trail miles have a way of finding every weakness in a shoe, and the Altra Timp 5 Trail Running Shoe was built to have none worth finding. From slick rock faces to muddy switchbacks to rooted singletrack, it keeps your footing confident and your stride natural across the full range of terrain that a serious trail run tends to cover.

Altra anchored the Timp 5 around a maximum stack of EGO Max foam that absorbs the repetitive impact of long miles while returning enough energy to keep the toe-off feeling powerful deep into a run. The Vibram Megagrip rubber compound sticks to wet rock and loose dirt with equal reliability, and the 0mm drop platform encourages the natural gait mechanics and midfoot strike pattern that reduce strain on ankles, knees, and hips over time. The roomy toe box gives toes the space to splay naturally under load, eliminating the compression that conventional trail shoes build up over distance, and the reinforced engineered mesh upper breathes freely while standing up to the abrasion and debris that technical trails put in front of every footstrike. A hook-and-loop tab at the heel accommodates Altra gaiters for days when the trail gets especially muddy or the snow starts flying, rounding out a shoe that earns its place as a go-to for serious long-distance trail running in any conditions.
