ALTRA TIMP 4: CONCLUSIONS
Now a days its clear that all trail running shoe brands are going to have at least one or two shoes in their catalogue with at least 30 mm of stack high, as we presented you some months ago here.
The key however comes with the combination of a thick “mattress” and middle/low weight, which in the case of the Altra Timp 4 is, balanced but still above the 300 grams mark, like, the INOV-8 TRAILFLY ULTRA G 300 MAX (300 grams) or the NEW BALANCE MORE TRAIL V2 (330grams).
Having a very cushioned shoe its now a days synonym of confort and in majority of the cases long durability, which in the case of this Altra, having the Vibram MegaGrip compound works as aguarantee of durability.
They are similar to their sisters, the Altra Mont Blanc but little heavier, so more a daily training shoe in comparison with the Mont Blanc, whoch might be more competition oriented.
