Altra Running was founded on an innovative
approach to running shoes.

An approach that was born in a running store and
took us to the front of the pack on roads and
trails across the world.
An approach that aims to keep you
running for a lifetime.

That approach to innovation propels us into
the future as we explore and
expand into new categories of product solutions.



WELCOME TO
PROJECT 275

OUR INNOVATION SPACE WHERE ENGINEERS,
DESIGNERS AND ATHLETES CONVERGE TO
STUDY AND UNDERSTAND HOW OUR BODIES
WORK IN HARMONY WITH OUR PRODUCTS
ON THE ROAD AND THE TRAIL.



INNOVATION AT
OUR CORE


We are committed to the study of human
biomechanics and physiology and
using that information to help improve
the way our bodies move and
perform in harmony with our products.
Our engineers and designers work with
elite athletes and state-of-the-art
research and development technology to provide
data and analytics that provide the foundation
for innovation within Altra Running.



OBSESSED WITH
PERFORMANCE


We have an obsessive drive to constantly
discover new and innovative solutions to
augmenting and improving human performance.
We explore how a precise shoe fit
can potentially improve speed and agility.
We approach carbon-plated shoes,
not as fundamentally altering the natural
running movement, but working in harmony
with how bodies were designed to run.
We’ve created three innovative foam compounds
that offer different levels of responsiveness and
return that can impact performance
on the road or the trail.



NEVER SACRIFICING
FOOTSHAPE™
COMFORT


FootShape™ is in the DNA of Altra Running...
and it will be in the DNA of every Altra shoe.
We understand there are different types of
performance needs that require different types of fits.
All Altra Running® shoes feature one of
our three signature FootShape™ Fits.
Designed to address fit from heel to toe box,
this allows your toes to relax and sit naturally,
giving you a more comfortable run.
