The Alma Tempo is designed for the demands of harder sessions-whether that&&';;s tempo runs, structured workouts, or sustained race-pace efforts. It&&';;s a shoe built for everyday training with a performance edge. The foundation is the same female-focused fit that defines all Hettas footwear: a narrowed heel that stays locked without pressure, a rounded instep, and a stretchy breathable toe box. The VeloPropulsion system in the Tempo uses a dual-density supercritical foam midsole to deliver a firmer platform that stays lively during repeated accelerations. The Pebax plate sits between the foams, slowing compression on landing and creating efficient propulsion as you roll forward. This tuned stiffness supports powerful efforts without overwhelming the foot or forcing an unnatural motion path.
