About Altra
Altra was founded in 2009 by runners who believed running should be about relieving stress, not adding more to your body. What started in the back room of a specialty running store has grown into a revolutionary footwear company that challenges industry conventions. Altra's signature FootShape™ comfort and ZeroDrop™ platform designs allow feet to move naturally, helping runners run healthier, go further, and keep running for a lifetime.
Since 2018, Altra has been part of VF Corporation's portfolio of iconic brands, yet it maintains its core mission: unleashing human potential by inspiring the world to move naturally. From humble beginnings testing shoes in the Wasatch Mountains to becoming a top-ranked brand in run specialty and trail running, Altra continues to build shoes for every type of runner - whether on road, trail, or anywhere your feet take you. The company exists because runners deserved a shoe that could help them run healthier and stronger.
