Timp 6

TrailRelease date 2026-01-09JP

Timp 6 is an all-around trail shoe for races, long trail days, and hikes. It keeps the line’s balance of grip, cushioning, and fit while raising the platform to 30 mm and revising the Vibram Megagrip lug layout. Internal volume improves step-in comfort without losing midfoot hold. An 85% recycled-PET Soft Rolled Mesh upper, revised overlays, Altra EGO MAX, zero drop, and GaiterTrap compatibility complete the build.

Intended uses:
Trail, Long run, Walking
