Altra Experience Form
Altra's 4mm-drop stability trainer with GuideRail-style support and a rocker, aimed at runners who need Adrenaline-like guidance in a foot-shaped package. The midsole runs notably firm, so it suits support-seekers over cushion-lovers. Reviewers found the ride harsh for daily miles.
