Men's Altra, FWD VIA 2 Running Shoe

Forward Motion, Effortlessly Achieved

The Altra FWD VIA 2 is built around a single idea - making every stride feel smoother and more propulsive than the last. A nitrogen-infused Altra EGO FLO midsole pairs with rocker shape geometry to create a rolling, forward-momentum sensation that takes the effort out of turnover on long road runs. The roomiest FootShape toe box in the Altra lineup and a breathable spacer mesh upper round out a max-cushion shoe that never feels like it's slowing you down.

Key Features

• Engineered spacer mesh upper for exceptional breathability and a streamlined fit
• Roomiest FootShape toe box in the Altra lineup - generous through the toe and midfoot for natural movement

• Rocker shape geometry promotes smooth forward momentum and efficient transitions
• 4mm drop offers a subtle heel-to-toe gradient for a natural yet cushioned stride
