So far been a very comfortable shoe and responsive upon impact. 55 miles on them so far and still feel great
Extremely comfortable. Feel great on my feet all day. Appreciate the wide toe box.
Perfect fit for my Flintstone feet.
I am a very long time user of Hoka shoes for training, trails and racing. I was looking for a little bit more room in the toe box. The Altras did not disappoint. Very comfortable on the long training runs.
A great fit overall. Comfortable with the wide toe box & narrow heel that I need.
I bought the shoe twice because of its durability and cushion support. It’s a great shoe when training consistently on long runs.
