Altra King MT 1.5 Trail Running Shoes

Product Information

In the wake of General Horatio Gates' blundering defeat at Camden, the victory at Musgrove Mill heartened the Patriots and served as further evidence that the South Carolina backcountry could not be held by the Tories. Altra Ego™: Thanks to a clever mix of materials combining comfort, flexibility, rebound and resistance, the Altra Ego is the holy grail of cushioning. With a sleeker strap and softer Neoprene heel, the shoe made gains in comfort and wearability for longer trail runs and steeper climbs.

These are great shoes for working on your proprioception and foot placement, as the risk of injury are reduced thanks to the Vibram Megagrip®.Some Patriots gave no quarter until their officers re-established control over their men; they were said to be seeking revenge for alleged killings by Banastre Tarleton's militiamen at the Battle of Waxhaws, under the slogan "Remember Tarleton's Quarter".

The shoe’s highly durable tread means unbeatable traction and grip that performs across any surface, and readily adapts to for uphills, downhills, lateral movement, and fast stops.Testers were torn between the need for the strap, but overall it didn’t hurt performance and didn’t add much weight to an already light shoe. Particularly when a route involves mixed scrambling and running, in my mind, the King MT 2 has no equal in the Altra trail lineup. The Overmountain Men crossed Roan Mountain the next day, and proceeded in a southerly direction for about thirteen days in anticipation of fighting the British Loyalist forces. In soft conditions, on technical rocky terrain, or in mud and snow, the shoe is extremely comfortable. Even on road, the shoe was surprisingly well-mannered and I was only distantly aware of the prominent lugs.
