Embrace The Space<\/h3>\n

Traditional running shoes feature pointy toe boxes that squeeze the toes out of their natural position \u2013increasing risk of bunions, hammertoes and plantar fasciitis. Personally, I suffered really painful Mortons Neuroma- <\/a>nerve damage from many years of too narrow shoes. The\u00a0 Altra’s FootShape\u2122 toe box allows the toes to relax and spread out naturally and the big toe to remain in a straight position. This enhances stability and creates a powerful toe-off to maximize running performance. We wish we could call it some scientific breakthrough, but we’re simply giving your foot the working space it needs.<\/p>\n

    Replicating Perfection<\/h3>\n

    The human foot is an anatomical masterpiece. It’s designed for stability, speed, and to get you from point A to point B. At Altra, we choose not to mess with perfection and simply let your foot do its thing. Every Altra shoe features a last that has been molded around the healthy position of a human foot. A shoe last is a 360-degree model of a foot used to create the shoe’s heel, instep, and toe box dimensions. Unlike other shoe companies that alter the last to make the shoe look more sleek and fast, we’ve chosen to let your foot decide the shape of the shoe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
