The North Face Altamesa 500 v2 is a specialized off-road running shoe designed for adult female runners who frequent forest trails, rocky ridgelines, and uneven terrain. This shoe offers superior traction and underfoot protection to keep you stable on unpredictable ground, though its rugged construction makes it less suitable for long-distance road running where a smoother, lighter ride is preferred.

The Altamesa 500 v2 focuses on breathability and durability for trail use; they are not inherently waterproof.
While you can run on roads in them, the lugged outsole will wear down faster on pavement and feel less responsive than dedicated road shoes.
These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. We recommend measuring your feet while wearing the socks you typically use for running.
The midsole is designed for stability and protection. If you require specific orthotics, the factory insoles are removable.
Air dry them at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators or heaters as this can warp the shoe shape.
Adjust your lacing pattern to be looser across the midfoot or try a 'window' lacing technique to relieve tension.
Consider pairing the trainers with trail-running gaiters to seal the collar area against dust and gravel.
Ensure that the outsole lugs are clear of packed mud and debris; use a stiff brush to clean out the grooves after each run.
To ensure proper performance, ensure you are wearing the correct size for your foot shape; the Altamesa 500 v2 features a secure fit, so consider the thickness of your trail socks. When cleaning your shoes after a muddy run, remove the insoles and wash them separately. Use a soft brush to remove dried mud from the outsole, and wipe the upper with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can compromise the integrity of the materials and glue adhesives.
