The North Face Womens Altamesa 500 V2 Gore-tex
The North Face Women's Altamesa 500 V2 Gore-Tex are the ideal companions for demanding female runners and speed hikers. These shoes stand out for their outstanding features, which make them perfect for use in a wide variety of weather conditions. Thanks to the waterproof and windproof Gore-Tex® membrane, your feet stay dry and warm even in rain and snow, while the wind chill effect is effectively reduced.
The innovative SURFACE CTRL™ rubber outsole offers outstanding grip and traction on slippery surfaces, ensuring safety with every step. The ultra-lightweight DREAMBOUND™ midsole, made of nitrogen-infused TPU foam, guarantees soft cushioning and high energy return, enhancing comfort during long runs. TPU overlays and a reinforced toe box ensure durability and protection in high-wear areas.
A special highlight is the gaiter-compatible attachment, which—combined with the serrated racing laces and the integrated lace cover—offers additional protection and comfort. The wider sole platform and the 6-mm heel-to-toe drop ensure stability and a natural roll, making running even more comfortable. The ripstop upper and the PFC-free, durable water-repellent (DWR) coating round out the high-quality design.
