## Description

Product Description VIA OLYMPUS The Altra VIA Olympus men’s running shoe offers max cushion for comfort, Original FootShape Fit for natural movement, and rocker shape for propulsion. BALANCED CUSHIONING Our Balanced Cushioning platform positions your heel and forefoot at an equal distance from the ground, encouraging better alignment, better form, and a low impact landing. PERFORMANCE MINDED Our rocker shape geometry is designed to give the feeling of being propelled forward with each step and provides an efficient toe-off without taking away from your natural stride. FOOTSHAPE Our signature FootShape comfort gives your feet more space to sit naturally and is designed to address biological differences in men's and women's feet. OUR BRAND Altra Running was founded on an innovative approach to running shoes. An approach that took us from the back room of a specialty running store to the front of the pack on roads and trails across the world. With innovation at our forefront, our founders created our first shoe with the help of a toaster oven. This was the start of our signature shoe construction to help you move naturally and has kept our brand going for a decade while aiming to keep you running. OUR PURPOSE Unleashing human potential by inspiring the world to move naturally is what Altra Running is all about. Our purpose is built around discovery, joy, responsibility, natural movement, and finding your potential. OUR INNOVATION Our wide-lacing system inspired our signature FootShape design to encourage natural movement. While a household toaster oven inspired our founders, FootShape and Balanced Cushioning has inspired thousands of people to unleash their human potential. That’s the foundation of Altra Running: innovative, disruptive thinking.

Review: Plenty of firm cushioning and still stable for walking and running - I have been recovering from plantar fasciitis and needed a shoe that was neutral, stable, zero drop, and cushioned. After reading lots of reviews and based upon my own experience with Altra shoes, I chose this Via Olympus for a great price on desertcart. I read lots of reviews claiming the shoe ran small, ran narrow or had a big arch support, and yet I still ordered my usual size 9 Medium width. I can attest that the shoe fits perfectly with thin or lightly cushioned socks. It's no more or less narrow than the several other pairs of Altra shoes I've had over the years. In fact, it might be a tad roomier. I can't understand the arch support claim, as there is actually very little arch support in these shoes or the inserts that come with them (I use a PowerStep orthotic in mine new Altra shoes, which provides me with just the right support for helping with the plantar fasciitis problem). These shoes have lots of stack height, yet the cushioning is firm while still being comfortable, and the shoe is stable. It claims to have a "rocker" design, encouraging good toe-off, and it does that, too, although it's not terribly noticeable. The shoes fit very comfortably for all-day wear. I loosen up the laces near the bottom a lot, then tie a half not around the tongue loop that the laces pass through. This isolates the forefoot of the shoe from getting tighter, so I can tighten the top of the shoe snugly (see attached photo). Lacing the shoe this way allows for free toe movement, while retaining overall stability. Great shoe!
Review: Altra for the HUSBAND WIN - I bought the Altra Men’s Via Olympus for my husband, and he hasn’t stopped raving about them. He says they’re incredibly comfortable right out of the box—no break-in period needed—and they provide excellent support for his feet and ankles, especially on long walks and hikes. The cushioning is top-notch, yet the shoes still feel responsive and not bulky. He also loves the wide toe box, which gives his feet plenty of room to move naturally without feeling cramped. The grip on the soles is great too; he’s worn them on trails, pavement, and even some slippery surfaces, and they’ve handled everything well. Durability seems solid so far, and they still look great after months of use. These shoes have quickly become his go-to pair for everyday wear, running, and outdoor adventures. Highly recommend for anyone who values comfort, support, and performance in a quality shoe!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Order a size up! Comfortable sneakers.
*by O***A on June 2, 2024*

I had to order a size up for the men's Altra Olympus. These are very comfortable for walking if you have plantar fasciitis. I also have osteoarthritis and wear inserts. These shoes have more cushioning than some other models and the wide toe box is good for my toes. They are a bit wider than I need and my heel slips a bit, but still comfortable to wear.
