AltraTorin 2.5
The distinctive foot-shaped toe box on Altra running shoes truly sets them apart from traditional running shoes. The Altra line was designed to allow the toes to relax and spread out naturally, while the big toe remains in a straight position. The Torin 2.5 features a fully cushioned zero dropplatform that places the heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground. If zero drop is a new concept for you, I suggest heading to your local running store and learning more about the pros and cons of zero drop for your specific foot type.
