Altra Running
WHO: Altra Running
WHAT: Altra makes shoes to help you move better in a more naturally way by providing a Footshape desing and Balanced Cushioning platform.
HOW: Altra was born with a precise idea: help people move better and more naturally. What we do differently? We design our shoes around human nature (and anatomy) not the other way around.
This means every Altra shoe features a Footshape™ toebox that is not necessarily wide but rather shaped like a natural foot in a sock. In addition, all Altras feature a cushioned Balanced Cushioning™ platform that places the heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground and keeps the weight balance equal heel to toe to enable more natural walking and running technique.
Lastly, Earth is our racecourse. Our trail. Ours to explore. It’s where we live, breathe, run and move. That’s why by 2030, we’re committed to making 100% of our materials regenerative, responsibly sourced, renewable or recycled. In addition, we will reach a 30% reduction in our CO2 emissions based on a 2018 baseline.

WHAT: Re-Athlete makes sport fabrics from recycled fishing nets and other nylon waste collected from the ocean and industry.
