Altra Timp 5 BOA - Men's

If you want a trail shoe that’s all about comfort + control without slowing you down, the Altra Timp 5 BOA is built to handle long miles and unpredictable terrain without fuss.

The standout here is the BOA® Fit System a dial-based closure that lets you micro-adjust your fit instantly, even mid-run. No laces, no loosening just twist and go for a locked-in feel when the trail gets rough. 

Underfoot, you’re getting a cushioned Altra EGO™ MAX midsole, giving you a soft but stable ride that absorbs impact without feeling sloppy. It’s paired with a Vibram® Megagrip outsole, which delivers serious traction on rocks, dirt, and wet terrain one of the biggest upgrades in this model. 

Like all Altras, it sticks to a zero-drop platform, keeping your heel and forefoot level for a more natural stride. Add in the FootShape™ toe box, and you’ve got room for your toes to spread out—huge for comfort on long runs or hikes.

This shoe leans toward long-distance comfort and moderate terrain, making it ideal for trail runners, hikers, or anyone spending full days on their feet rather than chasing speed records.

Why you’ll love it:

• BOA® dial system = fast, precise fit adjustments
• Cushioned EGO™ MAX midsole for long-mile comfort
• Vibram® Megagrip outsole for reliable trail traction
• Zero-drop platform for natural movement
• Wide toe box for all-day comfort and stability
