Ideal for Trail and ultra runners or long-distance hikers who want a cushioned, stable zero-drop shoe with dependable grip and all-day comfort, and who appreciate Altra's natural foot-shaped fit over a snug, race-oriented feel.
Trail shoes in NORMA's database last between 320 and 850 km across 315 models. At 570 km, the Altra Timp 6 sits in the lower half of that range.
The Altra Timp 6 is an all-round trail shoe built for long trails, ultra distances, and extended time on foot. It pairs Altra EGO MAX midsole foam at a 30mm stack with a zero-drop platform for a stable, protective ride that soaks up impact while offering enough rebound to keep moving forward. A re-tuned Vibram Megagrip outsole delivers reliable traction on wet and dry ground, from rocky, technical terrain to flat forest roads. The headline update is comfort: a revised fit locks down the midfoot and instep while leaving room inside for a roomier, less constricting feel, and the Soft Rolled Mesh upper (85% RPET) improves next-to-skin feel, breathability, and protection. GaiterTrap compatibility rounds out a shoe meant to support both running and hiking to the finish. Best for runners who want a do-it-all cushioned trail cruiser rather than a lightweight racer.
