The Alma Cruise is engineered for athletes who want cushioning that stays responsive without feeling overly soft or unstable. It&';s a dependable daily trainer that still prioritizes protection over the long haul. 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 Cruise pairs a full-length Pebax plate with our softest supercritical foam to create a smooth, steady ride that supports sustained mileage. The Pebax plate sits between the foams, slowing compression on landing and creating efficient propulsion as you roll forward.
