"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""After logging miles on rocky singletrack and gravel service roads, I’m blown away by how stable and cushioned the Altamesa 500 feels. The DREAM midsole has incredible rebound without feeling too soft, and the fit holds tight without hot spots—even on long days.""We trust the Altamesa 500 Trail Running shoe when our training routes take us from smooth gravel paths to rugged switchbacks. Designed in collaboration with The North Face athlete team, this shoe delivers the responsive support and soft landing we need to go the distance. The ultralight DREAM foam midsole cushions our stride while returning energy with every step, while the padded collar and tongue lock down the fit without adding bulk. The engineered mesh upper keeps things breathable while offering support with strategic overlays and a reinforced toe cap. Underfoot, the SURFACE CTRL™ rubber outsole is optimized with grippy 4mm lugs and made from 20% rubber sourced from smallholder farmers using regenerative practices. From neighborhood loops to alpine ridgelines, the Altamesa 500 keeps us moving forward with confidence and comfort."
