VIA Olympus 2

Max Cushion2023-11-02 · US · ReleaseChecked 2026-10-26

VIA Olympus 2 updates the original max-cushion road shoe with softer Altra EGO MAX foam, a new Ortholite X55 footbed, and a refined molded heel collar and plush upper. Its 33mm zero-drop platform retains rocker geometry, Original FootShape room at the toes, and a rubber outsole. Built for road miles and long walks, the second generation focuses on underfoot softness and a more secure heel fit.
