Altra Timp 5 Gore-Tex, for what type of athlete, what use, what distance, and what surface?

This shoe is intended for various types of trail runners, whether they are beginners, intermediates, or advanced. For those new to the zero drop, a hallmark of Altra, it's necessary to ease into it gradually to avoid the risk of injury.

It is recommended for your regular training at a slow to moderate pace and proves effective over all distances.

Versatile, this model follows you easily on your favorite trails, from simple paths to technical terrain in the mountains.

Timp 5 Gore-Tex from Altra, what use?

+ Focused on comfort and traction, the Timp 5 promises a smooth transition from road to mountain during your trail outings across all types of terrain. Whatever your needs, it accompanies you lightly to the peaks in any weather.

Technologies

Zero Drop

Flat cushioning. The Zero Drop platform offers total cushioning and places the heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground. This natural balance helps keep the feet, back, and body posture aligned to minimize shocks. Additionally, the Achilles tendon and lower calf muscles, weakened by wearing running shoes with elevated heels, are strengthened.
Foot-Shaped Toe Box

The FootShape toe box allows the toes to spread naturally and comfortably while keeping the big toe straight. This improves stability and increases the propulsion strength of the toes, optimizing running performance.
Advantages:
- The big toe remains straight, providing greater stability and increased propulsion strength.
- The toes can spread naturally and comfortably.
- The foot naturally compensates for any excessive pronation.
Balanced Cushioning

The Balanced Cushioning platform positions the heel and forefoot at the same height from the ground. This natural base helps to properly align the body, maintain better form, and promote low-impact ground contact.
Vibram Megagrip

The Vibram MEGAGRIP sole provides excellent grip properties on all types of terrain, especially on slippery surfaces, and high durability.
Altra EGO MAX

The new Altra EGO MAX foam ensures superior performance with an extra touch of bounce. New premium lightweight foam for optimal cushioning.
FootShape Medium Fit / Standard Fit

Shape and design halfway between a classic fit and a tailored fit.
Gore-Tex

Waterproof, windproof, and breathable properties tested and proven over time.
