FootShape™ Toe Box
Altra’s FootShape™ toe box allows the toes to relax and spread out naturally and the big toe to remain in a straight position for maximum stability and power.
The FootShape™ also provides more comfort and stability in uphill climbs and downhill descents.
Zero Drop
The Superior 4 is a minimalist running shoe with the Zero Drop that places your heel and forefoot the same distance from the ground to encourage proper, low-impact form throughout your trail run.
Gaiter Trap
Hook-and-loop tab allows strapless gaiter attachment that prevents debris from building up beneath the shoe.
TrailClaw™
Canted lugs positioned strategically beneath the metatarsals to provide traction at toe-off.
Balanced Cushioning™ Platform
Places your heel and forefoot the same distance from the ground to encourage proper, low-impact form throughout your trail run.
Quantic™ Midsole
The Quantic midsole foam cushioning combines responsive performance in a lightweight package.
Quantic™ was inspired by a desire to combine the plush feel of Altra EGO™ with a lightweight ride, it cushions every step and floats over any surface.
Removable StoneGuard™
To protect your feet from stone bruising, the Superior 4 also includes a removable stone guard.
This removable StoneGuard rock plate provide protection and versatility for varying terrain.
It slips underneath the sockliner to disperse shock and protect the feet.
