Altra - Men's Mont Blanc

Altra Footwear was launched in 2009, from Utah , America and . The name Altra based on the Latin word “ALTERA”, which means “ to fix or mend something that is broken”

ALTRA has developed many technology over the years, besides core 3, the Maxtrac™ outsole and TrailClaw™ lugs pattern which makes Trail shoes such as Lone Peak 5 has a great grip over different terrain. For the Midsole, the premium EGO™ midsole which creates a lightweight , high responsive and durable midsole. In 2001, the upgrade version of EGO™ –EGO™ Max launched with Torin 5 which brings EGO™ Midsole to another level.

ALTRA have developed the Mont Blanc, a brand-new trail racing shoe. The functional design is based on the brand's concept of the“Fastest Known Trail (FKT) running shoe". The exceptional performance of the mid sole, its light weight, and the combination with Vibram Litebase Megagrip are this shoe’s greatest features.

The midsole is made of ALTRAs most advanced EGO™ MAX foam to ensure lightness, durability, and resilience comparable to road racing shoes. 

The outsole has Vibram’s lightweight version of Megagrip,  Litebase combined with a multi-directional lug design, which means this outsole can handle slippery and rough terrain in wet conditions with ease.

The upper is made of an ultra-lightweight and breathable material, which reduces the weight significantly while maintaining protection and comfort.

ALTRA originated in Utah, USA. All ALTRA trail running shoes were traditionally named after the mountains in Utah. Now 10 years later, it finally broke this tradition and picked the iconic Mont Blanc, Europe's highest peak.  Mont Blanc of course is also synonymous with the world-renowned Ultrarunning event "Ultra Trail de Mont Blanc" (UTMB).

The ALTRA Mont Blanc gives Trail and Ultra runners the to conquer mountains around the world, and promotes ALTRA as a truly international brand.
