Features

The Face Masks & Gaitors is a tough trail shoe ready to take on any adventure.

Ready for any hike or trail run, the Face Masks & Gaitors features an Altra EGO™ MAX midsole, making it softer and giving you more energy return underfoot. Altra also added drainage ports in the forefoot so you can frolic through streams, creeks and puddles.

Run over technical terrain with confidence. The Timp 4 features Altra’s MaxTrac™ outsole with a new multi-directional lug pattern for grippy traction on any trail. There are modified InnerFlex grooves in the outsole so it is flexible enough to run over roots and rocks.

The updated upper features an abrasion-resistant mesh with durable overlays to keep your feet protected. Altra also updated the collar construction for a softer, more premium fit.

Plus, it has Altra’s signature gaiter traps if you want to add extra protection against dirt and debris.

The Timp 4 has all of the features Altra shoes are known for. A FootShaped™ toe box lets your toes splay as you are running across uneven ground and Altra’s Balanced Cushioning (or zero heel-to-toe drop) promotes natural running. Finally, the women’s version features Altra’s Fit4Her technology. Altra uses a separate last for their women’s shoes that take into account the differences in women’s feet which can include longer arches and narrower heels.

What’s New

The Face Masks & Gaitors got a complete overhaul to make it tougher and ready to go the distance. The midsole changed from Quantic foam to Altra’s EGO™ MAX midsole for a softer, livelier ride. They also added a MaxTrac™ outsole and changed the pattern of the lugs to give you better grip. Finally, Altra made the upper more durable and added drainage ports.

Who It’s Best For

The Face Masks & Gaitors is a great trail shoe for anyone looking for excellent cushion and extra grip on the trail. It’s just as comfortable for long trail runs and ultramarathons as it is for quick hikes and walks outside.

Happy trails

This is my second pair and are my happy shoes on the trail. Fit is great and the greater cushioning has been great.

Disappointed

KBall 9 months ago Verified Purchase

I bought these at the beginning of the summer and walked the dog 4.5 miles in them each day. I really like them and the cushion and toe box room they provide. However the tongue gave me grief from day one and wouldn't stay in the center of my foot and I'm constantly adjusting it. It's been 3 months and they have totally fallen apart. I'm definitely not an ultramarathon runner and I've got a hole in the side and the soles are completely bare causing me to skid out on rocky areas. After paying $160 for these shoes I expected them to last at least 5 months. So sad they haven't held up.
