Review: Comfortable and fast - Mesh uppers are super breathable. They wear similarly to other Altra models. Nice and light with not too much cushion. I wouldn't recommend unless you are accustomed to zero drop shoes. If you are, they are the best for racing.
Review: Great shoe! - I LOVE THESE SHOES!! The fit is perfect! My last pair of running shoes constantly gave me blisters on long runs so I was looking for a better fitting shoe. The arch support is really great! I have weird feet but these fit the bill for walking or running. I bought a second pair in anticipation of wearing the current pair out. They're super light weight and are super breathable. I think they look really good too. Will definitely be buying another pair!

## Features

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great shoe!
*by D***J on January 4, 2026*

I LOVE THESE SHOES!! The fit is perfect! My last pair of running shoes constantly gave me blisters on long runs so I was looking for a better fitting shoe. The arch support is really great! I have weird feet but these fit the bill for walking or running. I bought a second pair in anticipation of wearing the current pair out. They're super light weight and are super breathable. I think they look really good too. Will definitely be buying another pair!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One go-to daily wear shoe.
*by J***R on May 29, 2025*

I love this shoe. Super light, very breathable, nice and wide in the toe box, comfortable and easy. I do not wear it for running, however, just walking/daily wear. The overall construction is a little too loose for me for running, and the cushion/energy return is lower than I prefer for running. But daily wear, perfect.
