Altra says:
When you’ve got confidence and durability underfoot, no terrain is off-limits. So hit the trail hard in a shoe with an outsole redesigned to be even stickier and a soft rolled mesh upper. This redesigned Vibram® Megagrip outsole is made to give you traction on any terrain while a premium upper combines with precisely updated fit construction to help deliver an elevated step-in feel, durability, and comfort. We added overlays for protection but made sure you’ve still got a comfortable flex for the ups and downs.
And our Altra EGO™ MAX midsole foam delivers light and luxurious performance with a little bounce. Space out with a roomy toe box, with plenty of room for your toes to move freely and a secure midfoot. Grip? Durability? And comfort? Looks like the Timp 6 has all the makings of your new favorite trail running shoe.
