The Altra Olympus has long been a staple among ultrarunners, known for its plush cushioning and vibram stickiness. This is the top choice for tackling long distances with comfort and confidence.

By reducing weight, increasing durability, and adding a modern upper, this version could be the perfect choice for runners looking to increase their speed and performance without sacrificing the comfort and protection they rely on.

• Stack Height: 33mm
  Heel-to-toe drop: 0 mm Weight: Approximately 10–10.5 oz (283–298 g)
• Upper: The Olympus 275 features a Matrix upper made from durable Kevlar threads. This design enhances durability and breathability while reducing weight compared to previous models.
• Midsole: This shoe retains the Olympus 6's compression-molded EVA foam midsole, which provides cushioning and a responsive ride for long trail runs.
  
• Outsole: Equipped with a Vibram® Megagrip outsole, the Olympus 275 offers the same traction of the Olympus 6, ensuring you feel confident on technical trails.
  
• Integrated gaiter: A built-in gravel gaiter helps keep debris out of the shoe, which may offer a compromise between a large over-the-ankle gaiter and a lightweight racing option.
  
• Reduced Weight: By updating the Strobel layer and upper materials, Altra has reduced the weight of the shoe by approximately 1.5 ounces compared to the Olympus 6, making it lighter and more flexible.

OLYMPUS 275 is the brand's first pair of cross-country running shoes equipped with TPEE socks, which can prevent sand and gravel from entering the shoe cage during long-distance cross-country competitions, helping you maintain a high level of performance. The tongue has been redesigned and constructed with simpler, thinner materials.
