The Alma Speed is Hettas' race-day weapon: the firmest expression of the VeloPropulsion system, tuned for rapid rebound and a powerful, efficient toe-off. Unlike traditional carbon plates that transfer load to the metatarsals and sacrum, the Pebax plate works with your stride rather than overriding it — reducing strain while maximizing return. Female-specific geometry means a secure, locked-in fit from heel to toe box, so every watt of effort goes forward. Step to the start line in a shoe that was built for your body, your race, your finish.
Designed based on female-biomechanics
Smarter heel fit
Our nitrogen pocket heel locks the foot in place without pressing on the Achilles. By contouring the heel specifically for women’s anatomy with a lower ankle collar, we deliver a secure, stable fit that stays comfortable run after run.
Velopropulsion midsole
Layered supercritical foam paired with a Pebax plate delivers controlled impact, smooth transitions, and efficient energy return. Unlike rigid carbon plates, Pebax allows natural forefoot flexibility while still driving a powerful toe-off—reducing jarring landings and stress on joints.
Breathable upper
Women can experience toe splay, upward-angled toenails, and bunions, so we optimized the toe box through material choice. Our mesh stretches to accommodate toes—without poking through—and has memory, so it holds its shape.
What really set this shoe apart for me was the ability to reduce shin and calf fatigue during fast runs and sprints.
