Designed to offer you maximum speed during your trail sessions, the Altra Mont Blanc BOA shoe for men allows you to break records. As comfortable as it is powerful, it accompanies you at high speed on all trails.
Equipped with Altra EGO MAX foam in the midsole, it promises remarkable shock absorption. This cushioning is complemented by a dynamic energy return capable of propelling you forward and facilitating your progress.
Your posture is always perfect thanks to the Balanced Cushioning platform that keeps the forefoot and heel at an equal distance from the ground. You benefit from optimal alignment for smooth and serene strides.
Lightweight, the upper provides appreciable breathability and is very durable. The BOA lacing system allows you to precisely adjust the fit and enjoy reliable lockdown.
The Vibram Litebase outsole and its lugs provide maximum grip in addition to formidable traction on technical courses.

Technologies
-
Zero Drop
Flat cushioning. The Zero Drop platform offers total cushioning and places the heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground. This natural balance helps keep the feet, back, and body posture aligned to minimize shocks. Additionally, the Achilles tendon and lower calf muscles, weakened by wearing running shoes with elevated heels, are strengthened.
-
Foot-Shaped Toe Box
The FootShape toe box allows the toes to spread naturally and comfortably while keeping the big toe straight. This improves stability and increases the propulsion strength of the toes, optimizing running performance.
Advantages:
- The big toe remains straight, providing greater stability and increased propulsion strength.
- The toes can spread naturally and comfortably.
- The foot naturally compensates for any excessive pronation.
-
GaiterTrap
Self-gripping strap that allows for easy attachment of the gaiters to prevent debris from forming under the shoe.
-
Balanced Cushioning
The Balanced Cushioning platform positions the heel and forefoot at the same height from the ground. This natural base helps to properly align the body, maintain better form, and promote low-impact ground contact.
-
Altra EGO MAX
The new Altra EGO MAX foam ensures superior performance with an extra touch of bounce. New premium lightweight foam for optimal cushioning.
-
Vibram Litebase
Vibram Litebase is an innovative technology designed to significantly reduce the weight of the sole by decreasing the thickness of the rubber, while maintaining the same performance.
Vibram Litebase allows for a reduction of approximately 40 to 50% in thickness, from 1.7 mm to 0.5 / 0.9 mm, depending on the type of sole, resulting in a weight reduction of the tread from 25 to 30%.
This reduction in thickness does not affect the performance of the sole nor the risk of laceration. The result is a very lightweight sole, with identical patterns to those of a traditional Vibram sole and thus the same characteristics of traction, durability, and wear resistance.
