+ Expert opinion
ALTRA is making a statement with
the VANISH CARBON. Visually pleasing, very well made, with a great fit and very
good ventilation, it offers several innovations.
With its FOOTSHAPE TOE box, it
offers maximum freedom for the toes and allows them to spread and relax. The
VANISH thus ensures an extremely natural rolling motion with increased support
from the big toe.
This comfort advantage can be
felt and experienced directly.
This is flanked by the so-called
Balanced Cushioning (Zero Drop), which positions the heel and forefoot at the
same level to the ground and makes the running experience more
natural.
The EGO PRO foam generates a
comfortable cushioning with good energy return, which is effectively supported
by the Carbitex half plate and the Active Stance Rocker. The overall performance
is at a very good level
+ Description
Altra Vanish Carbon with the first carbon fiber Propel plate promotes natural propulsion. Altra EGO PRO midsole, Altra's lightest and most energy efficient foam. Active Stance Rockers are 65% at the front of the foot, measured from the heel (the furthest back area in all Altra shoes), to promote more efficient toe-off.
FootShape Toe Box
Traditional running shoes feature pointed toe boxes that push toes out of their
natural position - an increased risk for bunions, hammertoes and plantar
fasciitis. With Altra's FootShape toe box, toes can relax and spread naturally
and the big toe stays in a straight position. This reduces overpronation,
increases stability and provides a powerful propulsion to maximize running
performance.
Balanced Cushioning Platform
Places your heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground to ensure
proper and gentle posture during your trail run.
Altra EGO
Dual-nature midsole compound with a responsive yet soft feel for increased
energy return.
Propel Plate
The Propel Plate push-off feature is made of springy EVA and causes increased
energy return with each step for added momentum.
