From town to trail, the Golden Gate ATR is the ideal choice for those looking for a versatile transitional shoe that is not only comfortable on paved surfaces, but also performs on park paths, gravel roads and groomed single track trails. Our most cushioned shoe to date, the ATR has superior impact absorption capabilities due to it?s iRespond Midsole System, designed to absorb and return energy efficiently. Although the brand's size chart has recommendations for how to choose your size, customer feedback suggests this shoe runs small, we would suggest sizing up if you are unused to a tight performance fit.
