Altra Men's Escalante 3 Sneaker

I've been running with barefoot shoes for some time and have been very happy with them. However recently I had problems with sore ankles so decided to try these Altras with a bit more cushioning, but still with wide toe box. I'm really liking them. Just a bit easier on the ankle joints, but not these horrible super bouncy thing that feel like trying to run on a trampoline. They look good to me and seem well made. Five stars.

The Altra Men's Escalante 3 Sneaker is an outstanding choice for anyone who values comfort without compromising wideness of the toe box. From the first wear, the difference in cushioning and support was noticeable. The unique design of the foot-shaped toe box gives my feet extra space to spread out, enhancing my natural walking motion and reducing fatigue.What I love most about these sneakers is the balanced cushioning platform. It positions my heel and forefoot at an equal distance from the ground, promoting better alignment and a more natural stride. The sleek design and vibrant color options make it easy to pair them with both athletic and casual attire.Whether I'm running errands, hitting the gym, or going for a casual run, the Altra Escalante 3 has provided exceptional performance and comfort. It's truly like walking on air, and the durable build means I'll enjoy these benefits for many miles to come.Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable, stylish trainer that delivers both in performance and comfort and is barefoot-friendly with a wide toe box!

Arrived a day earlier than expected (arrived Friday 19th July 2024). Very well packed and arrived in perfect condition. I find them very comfortable for running and walking with the wide toe box. Great shoes, great price, great service, thank you! 5 stars, would give 6!

Great shoes. They don't squeeze your toes so they're very comfortable. Good spring in the step.

This is my second pair of Escalante. They are a great shoe to get started in when moving to a wide toe box, minimal shoe. I’m a UK 9.5 and bought the 10.5 and they fit great plus give me extra room.

ive gone through brooks, NB, Nike Free and many others over the years. I have had mostly success with most of these but the Altra Escalantes are just another level. Bought four pairs of this specific model in different colors so far and I can't overemphasize how comfortable they are for pretty much any activity except perhaps heavy weight training/powerlifting.Also have the Rivera 2 and that's a great running shoe as well. Altras are the best by far.

Since I’ve been wearing them they have given me blisters as you can see. Would like a refund.

I am a fitness professional who has struggled with ankle issues for some time. Altra contributed massively on overcoming the obstacle.
