Description

The North Face Altamesa 500 V2 Men's is a cushioned everyday trail running shoe with a full-length DREAM nitrogen-TPU midsole and a 6 mm drop. It's made for runners who want soft, rebounding comfort on gravel roads and forest trails without a heavy feel. A wider platform adds stability, and Surface Ctrl rubber with 4 mm lugs bites on loose ground. This is the Black/White colourway.

Why You'll Love It
  • Soft, springy foam that bounces back step after step
  • Stable, wider platform for confident footing
  • Grippy lugs for loose gravel and dirt
  • Secure lockdown from dual midfoot webbing
  • Serrated laces that stay tied
Technical Features

  • Heel stack: 36 mm
  • Drop: 6 mm
  • Midsole: Full-length DREAM nitrogen-TPU foam
  • Outsole: Surface Ctrl SC2 rubber
  • Lug depth: 4 mm
  • Upper: Seamless engineered upper with zonal reinforcements

Perfect For
  • Daily trail kilometres on gravel, forest and farm tracks

Why We Stock It

The Altamesa 500 V2 takes The North Face's DREAM foam and puts it in a straightforward, cushioned trail trainer. It gives us a comfortable everyday option between our minimal shoes and the plated VECTIV models.
