ALTRA TIMP 5 BOA® - built for performance on the toughest trails
Following the success of athlete-favorite Mont Blanc BOA®, Altra integrates the BOA® Fit System into the popular Timp 5 to deliver a micro-adjustable, precision fit. The Altra Timp 5 BOA® also leverages a BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap upper configuration, which enhances heel lock, midfoot connection, and forefoot freedom.
Created in partnership with BOA®, the Altra Timp 5 BOA® features the BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap, upper configuration which is designed for optimal pressure distribution. Its asymmetric upper securely wraps the foot, reducing pressure points while enhancing the connection between the foot and midsole. This results in improved power transfer and a more secure heel hold for greater efficiency. Developed by BOA’s team of Ph.D. biomechanists at the cutting-edge Performance Fit Lab in BOA’s Denver, Colorado HQ, the BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap is backed by scientific research. Learn more about how BOA® redefines the limits of human performance.
The BOA® Fit System with PerformFit™ Wrap delivers scientifically proven benefits of up to 7% improved stability and control and 9% increased energy efficiency.
The Altra Timp 5 BOA® also features a Vibram® Megagrip outsole that offers unparalleled grip on both wet and dry surfaces, an updated Altra EGO™ MAX midsole foam compound, GaiterTrap™ for easy strapless gaiter attachment, a roomy toe box, and zero drop. Available in Women’s and Men’s, the Altra Timp 5 BOA® is built for performance on the toughest trails.
