Altra
Timp 6
A mid-cushioned, zero-drop trail shoe with EGO MAX foam and a Vibram Megagrip outsole. Comfortable and protective for long days on moderate trails, with plenty of room up front.
What's new: Softer, more responsive EGO MAX foam, a wider toebox, thicker tongue and Vibram Megagrip outsole, but it is about 20 g heavier and $10 dearer than the Timp 5.
