Canadian performance footwear brand Hettas returns this Spring with a refreshed take on its signature Alma series, unveiling a new palette that merges technical precision with an elevated, everyday aesthetic. Designed exclusively around women’s biomechanics, anatomy, and physiology, the Alma collection supports everything from daily movement to marathon training—while bringing a refined, fashion-forward sensibility to functional footwear.
The new colourways are now available for pre-order at Hettas.ca, with the Spring drop arriving mid‑April.
A Women-First Approach to Performance Design
Hettas was founded on a simple but radical premise: women deserve footwear engineered specifically for them. Every silhouette is built on a female-specific last and informed by research, data, and extensive wear testing. The result is a collection that prioritizes alignment, stability, and comfort without compromising on style.
This season, the Alma lineup expands with intentional tones and subtle detailing—each model tuned for a different kind of movement.
The Alma Collection: New Colourways for Spring
Alma Cruise — Everyday Running, Refined
Created for daily runs and versatile movement, the Alma Cruise arrives in three new shades:
- Black
- Blanc de Blanc
- Chambary Blue
A soft, muted Pink Sand will join the collection in Fall 2026.
Alma Tempo — Built for Endurance
For runners who prefer medium firmness underfoot, the Alma Tempo introduces the same trio of Spring colourways:
- Black
- Blanc de Blanc
- Chambary Blue
Pink Sand follows in Fall 2026.
Alma Speed — Strong, Fast, and Firm
Designed to round out a runner’s rotation, the Alma Speed is tuned for those who want a firmer, more propulsive ride.
New colourways include:
- Blanc de Blanc (mid‑April)
- Chambary Blue (late May 2026)
What Sets Hettas Apart
Female-Specific Fit
- Built on a women’s last for a secure heel, rounded instep, and natural toe splay
- Lightweight plated construction with VeloPropulsion™ technology tuned to female loading patterns
- Designed to support alignment and reduce slippage without unnecessary compression
Smart Heel Construction
- A narrower heel and lower ankle collar reduce pressure on the Achilles
- Nitrogen-infused foam heel pockets create a stable lockdown without added bulk
- A structure that maintains its shape over time with minimal pressure points
Impact Control + Energy Return
- A tuned Pebax® plate paired with responsive supercritical foam
- Engineered to manage landing forces and return energy efficiently
- Designed to support smoother, more stable transitions—especially important given the higher injury risk female runners face in the sacrum and hip regions
