Customer Reviews Altra Provision 7

The top fabric feels like it's cut too short. The spot where the lacing begins, just behind my toes, is really tight. Even with laces completely removed. I walked a little over 30 miles in them two weeks ago and the tops of my feet still feel bruised. The rest of the fit is fine and I like the colors.

I've been having achilles issues and thought these would help. They have not. It helps to have the zero drop, but the minimal arch support causes too much shear stress on my achilles.

I was so excited to give these shoes a try they felt amazing when I tried them on and even running. After about a month they got a hole in the inside heel super disappointed.

I wanted something with more cushion for all the running on pavement I have to do and so decided to give these a try. I was an avid fan of the one, but haven't really found a pair since that I love to run in. These are very cushioned, but I consistently get a blister on the side of my right heel where the insole and shoe meet. I've tried many different socks to no avail. I can't even relegate them to a walking shoe, because the moment I take more 20 steps, I feel it starting to rub. I've owned many Altra's over the years, and I have never once gotten a blister from any of them. Super disappointed, and of course I missed the return window.

What is going on with ALTRA? You guys are making your shoes more narrow and you're going to lose your original market. These shoes are way too narrow. These are supposed to be standard but they feel like the narrow shoes I avoid from other shoe companies. My new blisters tell the story. I really hope I don't need to find another shoe company.

I want to like Altras but have yet to find a model that fits my high instep. My feet aren't particularly wide, but these were so narrow, even though the toe box is supposed to wider than other brands. They also cut into the top of my foot and were pretty painful.

I bought the Provision 7 back in September when it was on sale, but continued wearing my Provision 6 (my favorite shoes) until they wore out. I went on one 5k walk and had blisters on the back of both ankles from the heel tab being too high and facing inward. The Provision 6 had a much better heel tab that flared away from ankle and were so comfy! I wish they didn't change them. Now I'm past the return period and really frustrated. Read reviews before buying and make sure to try them out before 30 days is up.

I don't have wide feet and I don't have a high arch but these shoes are so uncomfortable because they have absolutely no arch support and they feel like they are cupping my foot and pushing the outer part inward. This is the third style of Altra I've tried and I hate them all.

At this point after SO many failed Altra sneakers post 4.5 Torins, I've come to the conclusion that Hoka has infiltrated this company and purposely tanking them. There is absolutely no way a company would continuously ignore feedback from their customers and repeatedly put out terrible product. I have SHIN splints since I bought this sneaker after giving Altra another chance. Unbelievable since I walk 6 miles every day for years with no issue until this sneaker. You're failing miserably and stopped listening to this consumer years ago.

I love these shoes. I went to buy 2 more pairs and you don't have my size!!!! Bring them back. Fit is great, wears well and the color works with different outfits. Please restock these!

Super great daily trainers! I've been marathon training with these as my daily miles though they've got enough pep for some of my faster paces. 200 miles in and they look almost exactly like when I first got them. Even in rainy weather their traction is great and the upper still looks fresh (I have the teal colorway). These were my first zero drop shoes so at first I was nervous since I've got very flat feet. Fast forward and they've helped my form tremendously! The cushion is just the right amount. I prefer firmer shoes so these fit my preferences. Fair warning that they took maybe 10 miles initially to soften up to the right firmness for me. I've heard the 8s aren't great so I'm tempted to buy a few more of these...

Comfortable right out of the box. Supports my foot completely and is still nice and roomy in the toe box. I love the colors too..I wear these mainly on my long walks with my dog. These are the best sneakers I have ever tried. I can't see myself going with another brand after this.

I have a hard time finding the perfect fit in walking/running shoes. Until Now!! I absolutely love these shoes and have recommended them to family and friends.

These are my first pair of running shoes, or rather, my second, as they are replacing this exact model I purchased 6 months ago. They are very comfortable. You see, I live in Birkenstocks, so I'm used to comfort and room to let me feet and toes move. I would say these are the Birkenstocks of running shoes!

Recommended by Orthopedist, Great support , comfort for my healing broken toe. Needed wide foot bed

Footbox continues to be comfortable. Enough support for longer runs. Of course with the zero drop my foot/calves work harder.
