Altra Experience Wild 2: Trail Comfort Meets Everyday Versatility

The Altra Experience Wild 2 is your invitation to roam wild terrain with ease and confidence. Whether you're new to trail running or simply looking for a durable, go-to workhorse in your rotation, the Wild 2 delivers comfort, adaptability, and a forgiving ride across a variety of trails — all while keeping that signature Altra foot-shaped feel.

Version 2 builds on the quiet success of the original with thoughtful upper updates that improve fit, durability, and breathability. The engineered mesh upper now features a reinforced TPU toe bumper for added protection, an additional lacing eyelet for a more dialed-in midfoot fit, and a streamlined D-ring gaiter attachment to better secure debris-blocking gaiters on rugged days.

Underfoot, the smooth-rolling CMEVA midsole and 4 mm drop deliver a natural-yet-stable ride that feels familiar to both zero-drop fans and traditional shoe users alike. The rocker geometry encourages efficient forward motion, while the MaxTrac™ outsole supplies grippy traction across a variety of surfaces — from mellow fireroads to light technical trails.

With its balanced cushioning, approachable drop, and trail-ready features, the Experience Wild 2 is a true all-around trail trainer — ready for exploration, adventure, and everything in between.

Best For

• Runners looking for a trail shoe with balanced cushioning and a slight drop

• New trail runners or road runners transitioning to trail shoes
