Had these for 4 weeks now, and although the fit is fine, there are some cons. First of all the toe box is quite wide, which for me, is a good thing, however size wise, it's a bit small. I normally use 42½ (EU - New Balance, Nike), but I feel my big toe rubbing against the front of the shoe, so I would go for a ½ size larger than normal. One annoying thing is the tongue, which is very stiff and the edge is cutting into the skin when wearing ankle socks. It might soften up over time, but I hope Altra will change the design/material of the tongue.

The size 46.5 that I usually take is a bit insufficient. I had to take a size 47. For those who are interested, the weight of the shoes received is as follows: Size 46.5: left shoe of 283g and right shoe of 278g Size 47: left shoe of 282g and right shoe of 279g Unequal weight between the 2 shoes that I did not find on the black Rivera (size 46.5: 278g for 2 shoes, size 47: 285g for 2 shoes). I haven´t used the shoes enough yet to give a final rating. Anyway, very nice product.

La taille 46,5 que je prends en général, est un peu insuffisante. J'ai du prendre une taille 47. Pour ceux que ça intéresse, le poids des chaussures reçues est le suivant : Taille 46,5: chaussure gauche de 283g et chaussure droite de 278g Taille 47: chaussure gauche de 282g et chaussure droite de 279g Une inégalité des poids entre les 2 chaussures que je n'ai pas retrouvé sur la Rivera noire (taille 46,5: 278g les 2 chaussures, taille 47: 285g les 2 chaussures). Je n'ai pas encore assez utilisé les chaussures pour émettre une note finale. En tout cas très beau produit.

Compared to the 4.5 Plush shoe a hair shorter (maybe half a number more does not hurt). Soft, comfortable, and still quite responsive. Pay attention to the upper part of the tongue, if you run with short socks it can be annoying

Rispetto alle 4.5 Plush scarpa un pelo più corta (forse mezzo numero in più non fa male). Morbida, comoda, e comunque abbastanza reattiva. Occhio alla parte superiore della linguetta, se correte con calze corte può dare fastidio
