RIVERA 2 PRESS RELEASE - MARCH 2022

中文版在英文版之後 

For the past two decades, leisure running has become increasingly popular, and urban runners have continuously expected improved standards and functionality from their running shoes. Not do they want a fashionable appearance, but also durability, comfort, and the highest protection for the feet during exercise.

Last year, in response this, Altra launched a brand new ultra-lightweight shoe, the Rivera to popular acclaim winning the Runners World Award for “The Best Lightweight Shoe”. It immediately became popular among leisure runners.

Today, ALTRA announces the global launch of the second generation of the Rivera, The Rivera 2.

Rivera was positioned as a daily trainer, for easy long runs and leisure wear. Inheriting the features of the previous version, the Rivera 2 is built with ALTRA’s responsive and resilient EGO midsole providing runners for a light, soft and comfortable foot feeling.

Rivera 2 also has ALTRA’s slimmest Foot shape™️ design which is known as slim fit. Of course, it also has Balanced Cushioning™️, which means equal cushioning under the heel and forefoot designed to reduce potential injuries.

For female runners, the female models utilise the Fit4Her™️ design concept which means it is specially designed for female feet. ALTRA is one of the few brands to make adaptions like this for female feet.

The shoe has a highly breathable mesh upper, and version 2 has detail improvements around the collar which makes for a comfortable heel position and provides good foot support. The aim is to bring ultimate comfort to runners every time they train.

Whether it's a daily practice session, a long training session, or a post-workout coffee break, Rivera 2 would be a great partner.

Technical Details

• BALANCED CUSHIONING™️. Designed zero difference in the cushioning under the heel and forefoot which encourages runners to adopt a natural running posture to reduce the chance of injury.

• FOOTSHAPE™️ The toe box design is made according to the shape of the human foot, providing sufficient space in the shoe to allow the toes to spread naturally, improving balance and comfort. The Rivera 2 is ALTRA's first shoe to use the Slim FootShape Fit. Compared with the previous FootShape™️ shoes, the Slim Fit toe box is slightly narrowed, and fits more closely to the foot providing support.

• Fit4Her™️ ALTRA has adapted 4 aspects of the shoes design to specifically match the specific differences in the female foot

In addition

• ALTRA’s EGO Midsole offering great cushioning and energy return
• Light mesh upper for breathability and style.
