The Timp 5 Mens is built to grip hard and stay light, ready to tackle any trail with fearless energy. We trimmed the weight while keeping the comfort you expect, pairing a stickier Vibram® Megagrip outsole for unbeatable traction on wet or dry ground. The updated Altra EGO™ MAX midsole delivers a lively, durable ride with extra bounce. With a roomy toe box and zero drop, this shoe lets your feet move naturally as you charge through rugged terrain, leap over rocks, and push your limits all day long.

SIZING TIPS
- Altras usually run true to size (i.e. if you usually wear a size 10 running shoe, you'll likely be a size 10 in these).
- All Altras have a wider toe box than other brands on the market. The width of the toe box does not affect the sizing - you can still order your regular size and enjoy extra toe space!
- If you happen to order the wrong size, don't worry! We have an easy, quick and FREE size exchange process to get you sorted out.
