Designed For Quickness and Comfort On The Trail
The Altra Superior 6 is an excellent choice if you're looking for a natural-feeling, lightweight trail running shoe. Balanced Cushioning™ positions the heel and forefoot an equal distance from the ground for optimal form and alignment while FootShape™ technology allows your foot to spread naturally in the shoe. The Superior 6 utilizes a layer of Altra's Quantic foam in the midsole and no rock plate underneath. This lightweight foam combined with the super grippy MaxTrac™ outsole offers plenty of protection on the trails while allowing you to stay light on your feet. This lightweight cushioning and the absence of a rock plate allow you to maneuver uneven terrain with ease.
