Introducing the Altra Men's Paradigm 6 in Navy/Light Blue, a pioneering shoe that combines sleek support with unmatched comfort for road running and walking. This model stands out as Altra's first collaboration with an athlete, benefiting from the insight of two-time Olympian Kara Goucher. Her experience has significantly influenced the design and functionality of the Paradigm 6, resulting in a shoe that expertly balances the demands of a support shoe with the versatility of an everyday trainer. Its slimmed-down, lighter, and sleeker profile does not compromise on support, offering an ideal blend of responsiveness and plushness.
Engineered for Comfort and Precision
At the core of the Paradigm 6 is the innovative Altra EGO MAX midsole foam, providing a light and luxurious performance that delivers an extra bounce and added durability. This technology, combined with the shoe's zero-drop platform and spacious toe box, allows for a natural and comfortable movement, letting your feet spread out naturally with each step. The engineered mesh upper ensures breathability, keeping your feet cool and comfortable over any distance.
