The renewed Torin 2.5 model does not lose the naturalistic essence of Altra Running with its characteristic zero drop, but guarantees good cushioning and remarkable protection against impacts, even on long runs. And of course, a more than significant lightness247 grams). So the Altra Running Torin 2.5 presents a new update with important innovations in the upper area, which brings with it a new design and more durability.

In the list of technologies used, as it could not be otherwise, the midsole of the Torin 2.5 includes the Abound system - in the format of an upper sheet combined with EVA foam. A resource that not onlyreinforces the cushioning of the model, but also provides optimal reactivity. With a medium profile, this neutral shoe has a zero drop to improve running technique and run with less impact. The result is none other than moderate cushioning.

Another technology that is not missing in the Torin 2.5 is the exclusive Toe Box Foot Shape, present in most of the models of the North American firm. Its main mission is focused on ensuring greater freedom of movement of the foot. In this sense, the FootPod system, incorporated in the outsole, is also capable of adapting to the natural movements of the foot, resulting in a libre flexion. All this results in a shoe with greater grip, protection and durability.

Redesigned upper with greater flexibility

The changes in the new Altra Running Torin 2.5 are located in its upper. Its upper incorporates a mesh, made with smaller pores. It also brings with it the Quick Dry system to make the instep area more breathable, and at the same time to favor a faster drying.

Another detail to take into account in the upper of the Altra Running Torin 2.5 is that band, right in the midfoot area, which connects with the eyelets in the middle area to improve the support of the shoe.

Strengths of the Altra Running Torin 2.5

  • NRS: The different components that shape the midsole and outsole work together so that the athlete enjoys a more natural run.
  • ABOUND: Made from recycled materials, this layer is located under the feet, and seeks to reduce the impact, and also to obtain a greater return of energy in each step.
  • ZERO DROP : By placing both the forefoot and the heel at the same distance from the ground, it favors a low-impact running, which allows to strengthen muscles and correct the body position when running.
  • INNERFLEX: This is a series of internal grooves located in the midsole. Reinforcing the flexibility of the model, and improves responsiveness and performance, but also making it an ideal model for running faster and with less weight.

From road races, to trail running events, to ultramarathons, even indoor fitness sessions. The range of possibilities of use of the Altra Running Torin 2.5 is very varied, and always maintaining good stability and comfort. In addition, the new Altra Running Torin 2.5 is available in a variety of colors.
