Dial Adjustable Trail Runners

Altra Unveils Its New 'Mont Blanc BOA' Hiking Sneaker

— August 8, 2022 — Lifestyle
Sport-focused running shoe brand Altra has teamed up with BOA to integrate the brand's 'Fit Lacing System' into its newest pair of trail runners called the 'Mont Blanc BOA.'

The BOA Fit System features proprietary dial-based technology that enables runners to adjust the fit of the sneaker while they are on the go, ensuring it delivers an ideal fit for their needs at all times. In addition, the sneaker comes equipped with Vibram’s Litebase compound and Altra's signature Altra EGO MAX midsole foam; together, these two features make for an incredibly lightweight and comfortable model that is still durable enough to handle tough trails.

Currently, the Mont Blanc BOA is being offered in one colorway called 'Marron Bells,' which combines a rust-colored orange with white and grey hues.
