The Altra Timp 4 is built to handle almost any distance on the trails. With a new EgoMax midsole, the Timp now has a premium foam compound underfoot that not only protects the legs but also helps to efficiently bounce runners through any trail. The MaxTrac outsole offers claw-like grip on a variety of surfaces, and the flex grooves carved into the rubber give this shoe an adaptable ride on everything from rocky trails to smooth fire roads. Finished off with a breathable knit upper, the Timp 4 features a "Standard" foot shape which is right in the middle of the "Original" and "Slim" options for a secure midfoot fit with a slightly roomier toe box. The significant changes to the Altra Timp 4 increase the shoe's comfort over longer distances and make it an even more reliable daily trainer that any trail runner can love.

Previous Feedback
Comments: If you're a runner that requires extra stability and you're looking for a light, supportive, and soft shoe then these are for you. I normally rotate Hoka, NB, and Saucony. The GTS 22's provide the best support, cushion, and response than any other pair in my rotation. They literally disappear on my feet. Very addicting shoe to run in. I've logged multi-hour runs and never felt the road beneath me. I can pick up the pace when I need to. I can't find anything to complain about. As always, Running Warehouse provides the best customer service.

Comments: I'm really liking this shoe - more than I expected. I don't usually run in a stability shoe but wanted something that provided ankle stability and a higher drop while rehabbing a lower leg injury. The fit is really dialed in and is true to running shoe size for me. Secure in all the right places with plenty of toe room. I also have the Ghost 14. Even though these share the same midsole material, the Adrenaline 22 feels denser, rides firmer, and is snappier. I enjoy both models but find myself reaching for the Adrenaline's more and more. Wasn't sure about the guide rails at first, but after 25-30 miles I don't notice them (much) anymore. Overall, well done Brooks.
