Features
Max out your miles with the Altra FWD Via 2.
Built for runners who want serious cushioning without feeling weighed down, this shoe delivers lightweight performance with an efficient feel. The all-new Altra EGO P35 midsole, updated engineered mesh upper and redesigned plush tongue work together to give you the comfort you need for daily road miles or epic training runs — all while letting your feet move the way they're meant to.
Details:
- Upper: The engineered mesh construction increases breathability to keep your feet comfortable mile after mile. The updated plush tongue delivers that soft feel from the moment you step in, and Altra's Original FootShape fit gives your toes plenty of room to move freely with extra space through the midfoot.
- Midsole: The new Altra EGO P35 foam is designed to be light and efficient, giving you that cushioned response without the weight. Combined with the rocker shape geometry and 4 mm drop, you get a smooth, natural toe-off that propels you forward with each step while maintaining your natural stride.
- Outsole: Durable rubber provides reliable traction for road running and walking.

Great shoes!!
I have 4 pair of Altra FWD Via 2. I absolutely LOVE these shoes. I’m not a runner although I do a few 5k’s annually. Some things are just with the money and having shoes that feel comfortable on your feet is one of them!!

Workout partner
I needed stability after a toe fracture and my doctor recommended these. The width is great and they are very comfortable. I use these to workout in at home. I do various cardio exercises and lift weights and they can handle both. I’m never going back to cheap shoes!

Every day sneaker
These sneakers are great for wide feet. I wear orthotics and normally take a wide sneaker to fit the orthotics in but these did not require wide. Can wear them almost all day with no problem.
