This is the men's Altra Via Olympus, a max cushion road running shoe that combines popular features of the Olympus 5 to produce a comfortable, higher stack height, yet light cushioned road running shoe. The Altra Via Olympus has the original FootShape Fit, which is the most roomy rounded toe box in the Altra road running shoes range. The VIA Olympus has Zero Drop heel to forefoot, encouraging a better posture and a midfoot landing for an all-round better running form.
Altra describe the men's VIA Olympus as: "Make every stride more comfortable than the last in the VIA Olympus. Take on any road run in 33 mm of Altra EGO™ MAX midsole, our highest stack height yet. This luxurious, lightweight foam is designed specifically for a plush ride, no matter the distance. Our Original FootShape™ Fit gives you the space you need for natural movement while rocker shape encourages propulsion and a more efficient toe-off. Running the road may not be easy but the VIA Olympus can make it comfortable."
