As a long-time Altra running shoe disciple, the Via Olympus 2 is the first Altra shoe I’ve worn that’s built more for cushioning road runs or walks. This zero-drop, max-cushion Altra shoe has without a doubt provided more cushion on long, mostly-pavement walks this spring than more Spartan Altra trail shoes.
The signature wide toe box Altra is known for provides the same toe-sprawling shoe shape my feet need to comfortably pound out the miles. It’s been an ideal blend of cushy comfort and support for short runs and long walks from tarmac to trail. MSRP: $160. Altrarunning.com
