Danville Bike and Footwear is happy to announce that we are now carrying Altra Shoes as an option to our popular Asics, Brooks, and Saucony shoe lines.
Altra is a shoe that was designed by runners and is known for their roomy “toe box” coupled with their zero-to-low drop design. When you have room for your toes, they’re free to move naturally. In addition, when your big toe has space it can remain straight, which optimizes your natural stability. A roomy toe box also lets your toes splay, avoiding squished toes for more comfort and balance, helping you push forward during walking and running.
The Altra zero-to-low drop design allows their shoes to place your foot in a natural position. Balancing the weight distribution across the foot to alleviate excessive pressure on your forefoot and encourage a more efficient, functional movement pattern.
Altra’s signature FootShape shoe is not a “wide” shoe. It’s a shoe with a roomy toe box. The difference is that with a roomy toe box, your foot is still secure through the midfoot. Every Altra shoe has their signature FootShape, so you can move naturally. Altra styles are designed with three FootShape options for different experiences: Original, Standard, and Slim. Come into Danville Bike and Footwear and see which Altra Footshape is right for you!
