Features

Go for an all-day adventure in the plush Altra Olympus 5.

Altra’s premium Compression Molded EVA foam gives you light and luxurious performance with a little extra bounce and durability.

The Olympus is built with Altra’s Original FootShape™ Fit, which is the most voluminous of Altra’s shoes. It also has their signature wide toe box so your toes can splay naturally. Like all Altra shoes, the Olympus has a Balanced Cushioned™ platform that positions your heel and forefoot at equal distances from the ground (or zero heel-to-toe drop), which encourages better alignment and form.

Altra redesigned the outsole to make it even easier to run on uneven terrain. The Olympus 5 has the grip and traction to take on any terrain thanks to its Vibram® Megagrip™, which is a durable and sticky high-performance rubber that works great on both wet and dry surfaces.

A breathable engineered mesh upper is comfortable to wear all day long and Altra refined the sidewalls to increase stability while you are on uneven terrain. The premium collar has been redesigned for added comfort and keeps your heel locked in and secure.

Whether you are hiking or running an ultra-marathon, do it in comfort with the Altra Olympus 5.

Fantastic shoes

Mary 1 year ago Verified Purchase

These shoes are the best I've ever owned. They are stable supportive and well-cushioned for log walks or hikes. The soles provide excellent traction. And they are great for people who like a big toe box e.g. for bunions. An improvement over this model from a couple of years ago is the higher tongue also better laces. I've tried other Altra and competitor shoes and these are my runaway favorites.
