Customer Reviews Altra Torin 7

Love the toe box, feel and look, but after purchasing 3 pair that developed holes in less than 6 months, I'm hesitant to purchase another pair of Altras.

I wear these shoes indoors for work and they are comfortable. However, when worn outside on wet pavement, they are dangerous, with no traction at all. I wore them outside in San Antonio on the Riverwalk, with every step sliding.

Less than 150 road miles. Already have holes in multiple places & the logos are peeling off. Going through something similar with my Experience Flows. Big bummer, because the Altra toe box is great.

Despite coming to really love Altras, especially the roominess in the toe box, I was surprised and bummed to find this shoe much tighter across the width of my toe area than the Torin 6, which was a great fit!

I love the torin 7's for their style and cushion. The one problem I have though is that they tear along the top where it folds when I walk. this was my first pair of altras and I have bought more of the same shoe to try to see if it was just the one shoe I bought. turns out it is not just the one shoe. i have had 5 pairs and they have all done the same thing and torn in the same way. my friend has a ton of 7's and has not had a single problem out of them (I don't understand why that is. we both walk a lot in them). I use it for running and weight lifting. I also have the Paradigms and they are ok but I really like the torins better. Altra needs to fix the top tearing and it would improve this shoe and make it tens times better.

These shoes rub outside of my ankles. Too late to return. The guy at store said same thing happened to him but after a while you don't notice it. I still do! It is bothersome. I do like the amount of cushion though.

I was so excited to buy this shoe for the minimal drop and width. I was sized at a shoe store. I tried them out on a stationary bike and my feet fell asleep on the first workout. They are far too tight vertically, there is not enough space in them. No amount of re-lacing fixed this. I returned them and the shoe stores solution was to upsize me into a man's shoe for greater vertical depth. The man's Torin is ndeed wider and has more depth, but is too high in the heel and too large overall.

The lacing comes down too far and puts pressure on my big toe. The toe box is not "high" enough so it puts a lot of pressure on my toes. The cushioning is amazing but won't be able to use these shoes because of how tight it is and how it puts pressure on my toes.

I have another pair of ultras that are perfect. These are too tight across the top front of my foot. I can't wear them too long or they really hurt. They are beautiful and I just wish they were wider. Won't buy again to be honest.

I think they took the man's wide and slapped it with a women's wide. Fit is just like men's. Heal is to high. Hit ankle bone. Sure hate this. Been wearing Torin for years. But not sure on this one. Cushion is better but that's it.

Have been really disappointed lately with what was my favorite brand. This shoe was hard and didn't have much cushion. Also, just like three other pairs, the new ankle support hurts and hubs against the outside of my ankle bone. This pair was literally the third pair/style I tried.

loved this shoe initially. very comfortable in store. right shoe never felt right -- shoe hits my ankle bone during walking stride; inside heel of right shoe developed a large hole. would not re-purchase and am looking for a replacement shoe after just 6 weeks of 5-mile a day walking use.

I've had Altras for the last 3-4 pairs and love them because they fit wide. Now, they have made them too narrow.......

Purchased regular width but too narrow so switched for wide. Width good. Upper has nice feel when you slip it on. However after that it's terrible. The foam is so dense and heavy feels like a piece of plywood. Lots of heel slippage. Over all clunky and not a fun ride. I really don't look forward to wearing this shoe but kept it a few too many days to return. Don't recommend at all for running.

I've had these for about 4 months now and am so disappointed. The uppers are so thin they're torn along stress lines and heels and barely wearable. I only wear them for work so it's not overuse

I have worn the Torin for years. Torin 6 wide was not wide. This Torin 7 wide feels like they took the men's and put a ladies size on it. So dissatisfied with this shoe.

I bought hoping they would be as comfortable as my previous pairs, they've discontinued wides in every style in my size so bought the regular. Super sad they are uncomfortable. I hope they bring back wides.

I worn Torins for years, & love the fit, but I'm looking for something else? I've gone thru 3 pairs in a year mostly walking. The uppers are so thin they wore out in few weeks. The soles wear out just as fast.

Ouch! As soon as I put them on the tongue rubbed on the top of my foot before I even stood up! The tongue is so narrow, but it is sewn in so oddly. I put them on, wore them a bit and my feet hated them even just sitting here. I had to put on my ancient ghost 15's to let them relax. I would try wide, but none are availablelike ZERO IN MY SIZE! This is a weird company who obviously cannot keep up with demand. I'm going to try Topos, they have my size in stock and hopefully my feet won't freak in the first 2 seconds of sliding my feet in. I gave two stars, because so many shoes are SO UGLY! Only the black are a little stylish. Horrible colors, but it doesn't matter, because my size and the sizes above and below are ALL OUT OF STOCK! The other styles are UGLY, and I am annoyed, so even if I could try another style, I'm too annoyed by the immediate pain I got from these on top of my foot (with laces totally spread out and I do not have thick feet), and the fact that I cannot even try to order my size in wide. Lost a customer almost immediately!

What a bummer! These are my fourth Torins. I am so sad because they definitely don't fit like the others. They feel like a half size too big, but it took me awhile to figure out that was the problem because the toe box is so narrow. It pushes my foot back so that I have to do the forward push stomp to jam my toes forward. I always have to put some miles on a pair of shoes to break them in, but I'm at 50 miles and I just want to cry every time I put them on to go running because wasting money makes me sad so I feel obligated to tough it out.

These were an instant return for me. These shoes just felt way to narrow and I don't normally have to order narrow shoes. Maybe it's for the best since my husband has been wearing these and they triggered Plantar Fasciitis for him.

I am in love with my torin 7 wide womens. These are discontinued? The rounded toe and deep box with the other standard features make this the most comfortable running shoe I've had. Now I must switch brands. I wish I'd bought multiple pairs. I hope they bring back the WIDE DEEP TOE BOX. People admired them and asked what make they were. All of us ladies are having toe trouble bring back the wide!

I like everything about these, except for the heels. After a month of wear, the inside of the heels have developed holes in the fabric, which has given me blisters. No response from cust serv

I love the wide toe box. Was told the soles of these shoes last forever. Unfortunately, that's all that will be left of the shoes after only 4.5 months of wear just for going on daily walks. For the price, I expected a longer lasting shoe! The fabric parts are totally worn out and have holes and disintegration all over. Sad.
