Double Tap to Zoom

The long awaited, highly anticipated release of the ROA x Altra trail runner is finally upon us. As we wrap up 2024, this insanely stylish, hyper technical footwear launch feels like the year's farewell – a year that was not, mind you, without its fair share of previous, heavyweight sneaker collaborations.

Nonetheless, this is a launch of particular gravitas, where excellent materials and exquisite design collided. Something of what Gorpcore dreams are made of, this shoe is bound to give you a hard time – over deciding on whether to wear it solely for its outdoorsy, athletic purposes, or to style it as the centerpiece of a standout everyday 'fit.

Enveloped in waterproof GORE-TEX lining, and standing tall atop grippy Vibram soles, your feet'll be Fort Knox'd from whatever weather or terrain hazards your trekking and alpine adventures may have in store.
