Right now, you can grab the highly-rated Altra Olympus 5 trail running shoes for as low as $118.73 at REI. You don't have to be a trail runner to want to get your hands on these coveted shoes – a 2023 survey by The Trek found them to be the second-most popular model among Appalachian Trail thru-hikers last year, who love their high cushion for long distances combined with a zero drop design.
The Olympus 5 is ready for rough trails no matter what speed you're going at, with a premium collar design for tailored locked-in feel and a wide toe box that lets your toes spread out naturally. Even though these shoes have zero drop for a more natural walking and running experience, they boast 5 mm contour insoles to provide additional support and a hefty 33 mm stack in the midsoles.
