Altra Experience Flow
Altra's 4mm-drop rockered daily trainer that evolved from the FWD Experience, pairing a light EGO midsole with the roomy FootShape fit. A gateway shoe for runners who want Altra's toe box without committing to zero drop. Zero-drop purists and runners wanting maximum cushion should look elsewhere.
