Very comfortable, good for those who like minimalist shoes. I usually run in barefoot shoes and bought it for winter for more miles on road/hard ground. First 20km was great. Durability yet to be tested.

I love this brand mainly because of the durability, wide fit (natural fit), Zero Drop. I´ve had previously bought the Altra Escalante 2, which has been a stapple for daily runs and afterwards I´ve used it for daily walking or sportswear kind of shoes in which it had and amazing performance at. This new model seems even more realiable because the upper is more stable than I was expecting, which is a great change especialy when changing directions.

I was looking for a wide toe box shoes for every day use after my ankle fracture, with zero drop, but standard barefoot like zero the sole was to stiff and lack of stability, was too much of a stress for not yet healed bone structure. Altra Escalante 4 was a great decision, my first purchaser, of this brand, wide toe area with good stability of the midle and the ankle area.

Great shoe, unfortunately slightly less wide at the front than its predecessors, but still very comfortable.

Prima schoen, aan de voorkant helaas iets minder breed dan zijn voorgangers, maar nog steeds erg prettig.

I've been wearing minimalist shoes for years, so I was looking for a shoe with a wide toe box, the smallest possible drop, and some cushioning to give my feet a break. And these shoes have all that, plus they're very light and reasonably cool. Very comfortable and cleanly designed, without unnecessary embellishments. So far, I'm very satisfied.

Empleo calzado minimalista desde hace años, así que buscaba unas zapatillas con caja para los dedos amplia, un drop ,lo más reducido posible y algo de amortiguación para darle un respiro a mis pies. Y estas zapatillas tienen todo eso, además de ser muy ligeras y razonablemente frescas. Muy cómodas y de diseño limpio, sin adornos innecesarios. Por el momento, muy satisfecho.

Very nice

So far these get the 5 stars. The tongue on them moves about more than I like but that's not enough to drop ,a star. I'd probably give these a 4.6. Extremely comfortable, like wearing slippers except you can run in them. Sensible design, space for toes, not over designed, no stupid big heel. It's the lack of crap that makes them better. Grip seems very good on tarmac. Plus they look great, people have complemented them. Really great trainers I just wish they were cheaper!
