These have quickly become my favorite walking shoes--one of the only pairs of shoes I can walk in for miles without pain. They are amazingly comfortable, even for my flat and often achey feet. I am usually a size 6, often take a wide size but in Altras I can do regular width because of the roomy toe box, and in these shoes size 6.5 was perfect. I am so happy that Altra is making these low drop shoes, which for me are much more approachable than zero drop shoes. They aren't the most stylish sneakers EVER but they are cute enough, and they make my feet extremely happy.

These shoes are AWESOME. I'd been training for my first half marathon with another brand whose shoes were really hurting my toes. The wide tie box on these shoes is a game changer and I wore them for the first time on my race... no issues at all!

Perfect shoes for 5K, 10k, and 1/2 marathon races. Very comfortable and the bright blue color is very eye catching. I have been wearing Altas since running my first 5k back in 2017.

So happy to see Altra with a 4 mm drop. It's such a nice ride with the rocker and a nice roomier toe box. I will definitely stick with this shoe for a long time to come. Thanks Altra!

Love these, so comfy and with a plush out the box! I am an Altra fan because of the footshape and room I have for my toes. I changed the laces and now they are exactly what I was looking for!!

I bought a blue pair they were wonderful !
Wear them 3-4 times a week no issues . Bought the white ones horrible ! My feet hurt on the top under the tongue my quads ached so bad I had to walk ! Thought it was just me . Went back to the blue ones no issues put the white ones back on and all the pains came back . Upsetting to say the least . They just sit on my shelf now

The most comfortable shoes I own. I have flat feet that often hurt, but I have zero pain after walking for miles in these. They're so fantastic that I started using them as my everyday shoes, and I got a second pair in black to be able to wear with work clothes as well. I usually take a 6 wide, but I got a 6.5 regular in these and they fit perfectly. I hope Altra continues to make non-zero drop shoes like this!

I have arthritis in my toes and need a wide toe box and support. These are very comfortable and don't feel like they look huge on my feet. I high recommend!

I absolutely adore my experience flows. They're so cushiony and supportive but incredibly light weight. I have wide and flat feet and these huh enough to provide support but do not pinch or cause hot spots. I would recommend to anyone for a mid- long distance shoe for training.

Nice wide toe box. Wish the sole was a little more cushy.

I have no doubt that these shoes will be super comfy when my new pair of laces come from [Big Online Retailer] but the laces that came with the shoes are pretty small for a bow + double knot and waaaaay too small for a heel locked bow + double knot. Went out for the run anyways and it was pretty uncomfortable with how tightly I had to tie to make the laces work, but like I said, I'm sure they will be a dream once I get new laces! The feel of the shoe itself was light, responsive, and supportive where it matters! I'm looking forward to long runs in these.

I am a nurse and work 12 hours shifts, so I need shoes that are super comfy. I had the paradigm 6 before these, but I wanted something with a little less padding. I went to a local running store and tried these on and was immediately hooked. With both pairs of Altras that I've owned I have had to order a half size bigger than any other sneakers I've bought, but this was explained to me by the shoe shop I bought my first pair from, so I knew right out of the gate to order an 8 instead of a 7.5. I also wear these shoes at the gym, and just as an everyday sneaker. They're so comfy, and so durable.. seriously you can't go wrong with Altras. I do recommend that if you haven't ever worn them to find a local retailer and go try on some different styles to figure out which one will suit your needs. Once you do that, you're set.

I love these shoes. With a history of bunions and hammertoe in my family, it is imperative that I find shoes with wide toe boxes to help prevent both. These shoes are phenomenal. They are so comfortable and even with bad feet and bone spurs, I can walk all day in these. Thank you Altra for making phenomenal shoes!

I didn't have high expectations for this shoe but decided to give it a try. First run, I was sold! Perfect amount of cushion and great bounce/responsiveness without being too stiff. Love the rocker- a smooth fun ride! Toe box is perfectly wide for me. Ordering another pair soon!

I usually wear a size 8, occasionally a size 7.5. These are as cozy as they are cute.

I just started jogging, I had such horrible foot pain, until I started wearing Altras! I am now comfortable and am able to up my game so much! I've now purchased 2 pairs.

I'll never wear anything else! I am a new runner and was recommended these at FF when I started training for the NYC marathon this summer. They were a dream through training! I had different shoes for race day but made a game time decision to race in these instead. Didn't get a single blister and exceeded my expectations! I have a wide foot and they fit perfectly! Can't wait to try the carbon plated ones!

First time wearing Altras and I am surprised they look so good on the feet and are so comfortable for running . I thought I would loose the heel support that I had on my previous running shoes but it actually is more comfortable than my Brooks. I need the wide toe box to help with plantar fasciitis, and I think this shoe will help me keep running!

About 100 miles in on these and loving them. Excellent combination of cushion and responsiveness that works for most road runs. Have not yet tested beyond half marathon distance.
