Motiv FLX
Motiv FLX is a 4 mm-drop road shoe for new runners, daily jogging, run clubs, and walking. Its EVA-molded SmoothStride midsole is designed to soften landings while maintaining a responsive feel, and the rubber outsole adds traction and durability. A flexible knit upper works with Standard FootShape fit to leave toe room while securing the midfoot, making it an approachable step toward Altra’s lower-drop geometry.
