Designed for your hiking sessions of all distances, the Altra Olympus 5 Hike Mid Gore-Tex shoe for men facilitates your progress on the trails.
Particularly plush, the new EGO MAX midsole offers superior cushioning and perfect shock absorption. You also benefit from significant energy return to easily cover the miles.

Foot-Shaped Toe Box

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.
