The North Face Altamesa 500 V2 Men's Trail Running Shoes

The Altamesa 500 V2 Trail Running Shoes are everyday trail shoes for runners of all levels and abilities. Show the trail who is boss.

Engineered Mesh Upper

The upper has been constructed from seamless engineered mesh for highly ventilated, chafe-free comfort. The plush heel cup and collar provide high-level comfort and heel lockdown, working in conjunction with the lacing system (with serrated racing laces) to securely anchor the shoe to your foot. Further enhancing the fit, a comfortable padded tongue with internal wings also aids in lockdown and is integrated into the internal dust liner to keep out debris. A reinforced and protective toe cap and dual midfoot webbing reinforcements keep feet shielded and supported. The pull-tab at the heel allows for ease of entry.

DREAM Foam Midsole

DREAM midsole foam is an innovative cushioning technology that offers an incredibly lightweight, soft and bouncy underfoot experience with great resiliency throughout the life of the shoe. It cushions your joints as you strike down and converts the energy into rebounds to propel you forward, allowing you to run further, faster, using less energy. This is combined with the dynamic stability zone in the forefoot, which is designed to provide inherent stability on the trail, allowing you greater confidence out on the trail. Broad base nets further assist stability.

SURFACE CTRL Rubber Outsole

Designed to be hardwearing and grippy, the Altamesa 500 V2s have been developed using the signature SURFACE CTRL Rubber Outsole. This bio-based outsole rubber compound has been specially designed to ensure superior traction on both wet and dry surfaces. Not only this, but it also works to ensure multi-directional traction on a wide range of surfaces and will withstand even the toughest trails yet, whilst being flexible enough to adapt to multiple terrains, providing you with complete control. The durable rubber works to protect itself from damage and protect users from losing control and slipping and has been designed to hold firm on uneven terrain so you can have complete confidence on the toughest terrains. 4mm lugs further bite into the earth, helping you with those quick, decisive moves when hurtling up and down hill and turning at speed.
