## Overview

The ALTRA Men's Impulse Flash Sneaker is a high-performance running shoe designed with a 100% fabric upper, a lightweight construction of just 8.6 oz, and advanced technologies like StabiliPod and FootPod for optimal support and comfort. Ideal for runners seeking to enhance their form and experience versatile performance across various activities.

## Description

The Altra impulse flash is a perfect blend of flashy reflectivity and lightweight dynamic support. Like the original impulse, the impulse flash features inner flex™ and stabilipod™ technologies to give you flexible support where you need it, but the upper is made of an entirely new, fully reflective material for style and safety in low-light situations. The friction-free, lightweight upper and footshape™ toe box keep your feet comfortable whether you are running, working out at the gym or walking the dog. The fully cushioned zero drop™ platform encourages a more natural, low-impact foot strike and features a lightweight, responsive a-bound™/eva blend midsole.

Review: Happy feet! - I had a bunionectomy in February they left me with a very wide right foot. I got fitted for new running shoes at A Snail's Pace and got a pair of Altra's in men's because the width worked better for my surgical foot. Going out on a limb I purchased this pair (different style than my others) without trying them on in person...I love them! At first they were a little difficult to get used to because I found the arch area to be more narrow than my other pair however now I have no discomfort and find them quite comfortable. I wear them to work (i'm a nurse) and also to the gym. I love the reflective colors and get quite a few compliments on them. In light they reflect almost white which is great if you are running or walking at night. I haven't had any problems with the reflective covering peeling or cracking and I wear these daily so they are heavily used. The arch support is great and the shoes are super light. My feet don't sweat in them and I have plenty of room in the toe box to wiggle my little piggies around :)
Review: Love these shoes! - I love the fit. The added room for your toes and zero drop are really great. I've been taking it slow breaking them in so my muscles get used to it, but will be ramping up soon. So far they are really cool. They definitely have a "different" look with the wider toe area, reminds me of small flippers lol... but the reflectiveness is quite eye catching and they are very comfortable just wearing anytime. I'd buy again and recommend them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great shoe
*by D***C on April 12, 2018*

Altra's design solved all of my leg issues. I was using a pair of Hoka Clifton 4's. I had pain in my right hip, my right glute, my right calf (gastrocnemius) and my right tibialis (anterior). I picked up the Altra's and my right leg pain started to subside almost immediately. After a month, the pain was gone. Altra's toebox is also very accommodating. These are great shoes, especially if you are running distance.
