Altra FWD VIA 2 - Men

Altra Footwear brings a fresh feel to the FWD VIA 2, pairing plush cushioning with a lively ride for road running and everyday walking. An all-new midsole, refined upper, and softer tongue work together to create easy comfort from the first step to the final stretch. The result is a smooth, efficient shoe that keeps pace with daily kilometres and longer training efforts alike.

Soft Cushioning With A More Responsive Road Ride

At the heart of this update is the new Altra EGO™ P35 midsole, tuned to feel lighter, softer, and more energetic than the original version. That balance of comfort and snap helps the FWD VIA 2 feel steady on relaxed runs while still bringing enough pop for upbeat miles. The rocker shape geometry supports a fluid forward roll, giving each stride a polished, effortless finish.

Made For Smooth Transitions

The 4mm drop keeps the platform feeling natural, while the rocker design encourages a clean toe-off without feeling forced. It is a strong match for runners who want max cushion with an easy, guided ride.

Breathable Upper And All-Day Step-In Comfort

An engineered mesh upper adds airflow where it matters, helping the shoe stay cool through longer sessions and warmer weather. The updated plush tongue brings a soft first impression and a more comfortable fit across the top of the foot. Together, these details give the FWD VIA 2 a dialled-in feel that is ready for repeated wear.

Original FootShape™ Fit For Natural Movement

Altra’s Original FootShape™ Fit leaves room through the toe box and midfoot, creating space for natural movement and a more relaxed ride. That roomy shape pairs well with the neutral platform and max cushioning, giving the shoe a stable, easygoing personality for everyday miles.
