Features

The Altra Torin 8 delivers plush comfort and a natural ride mile after mile.

Think of the comfiest running shoe you've tried, then add in the freedom of a roomy toe box and the natural feel of a zero-drop design. That's what Altra has created with the Torin 8, thanks to their plush EGO™ Max cushioning which has been tweaked to feel softer than ever without turning mushy on you.

So whether you're tackling long distances or seeking all-day comfort, the Torin 8's smooth, balanced ride and spacious fit delivers a seamless experience that moves with you through every stride.

Details:

  • Upper: A breathable jacquard mesh upper paired with a new molded heel collar gives you a premium fit and feel. The Standard FootShape™ toe box gives your toes room to splay naturally while maintaining a secure midfoot lockdown.
  • Midsole: Enhanced EGO™ Max foam provides softer, more responsive cushioning than previous versions. Plus, the zero-drop platform promotes a smooth and natural ride.
  • Outsole: Strategic rubber placement delivers durability and traction while maintaining flexibility.

From our Altra Torin 8 Review

“My favorite thing about the Torin 8 is Altra’s Standard Footshape™ Fit. The step-in feel is awesome and it translates to comfort during the run as well. Having that much room in the toebox is just another example of how the Torin 8 is a uniquely different experience from the other shoes in my lineup.”

Altra refined the Torin 8 with enhanced EGO™ Max midsole foam for a softer ride, added a breathable jacquard mesh upper for premium comfort and redesigned the heel collar for improved security and fit.

Great Running Shoe

Bobby G 1 month ago Verified Purchase

I have been wearing the Altra Torin for years. It is a great shoe, very comfortable. I needed a shoe with a wide toe box and the AT is perfect. I have never had an issue and would highly recommend.

Great shoe with great toe room

Joey B 1 month ago Verified Purchase

The Altra Torin 8 is sweet. It lives up to it's naming and is improved over the 7. The toe room continues to provide space and the cushion is on point without the stack height being too high. I am looking forward to another season with this shoe.

Great relief!

These shoes fit great and give me the wide toe box that I need. My podiatrist recommended Altra, FLeet Feet guided me to the correct model, and things have been so much better for me! I'm thankful and walking better than i have in a long time!

Great store, great people, Great Shoes!

I don't know what it's called but it fits great

I finally have a pair of shoes that fit my feet!

Best ones yet, hope they hold up

Dave C 3 months ago Verified Purchase

These give my 3E feet plenty of room to splay the toes. The sole firmness can be described as “Goldilocks “ , firm enough for support yet gives enough to allow your feet to push into it without absorbing too much energy. These Torins are only used for walking and everyday use. Past Altras all had one fatal flaw, they fell apart / wore out within weeks of purchase. That reason kept me away from the brand for years. Hopefully that issue has been resolved.

Not really wide

Susan P 3 months ago Verified Purchase

Ordered wide, but could hardly get them on.

Great running shoes with a wide toe box

Reid S 4 months ago Verified Purchase

These shoes are incredibly comfortable and have a great wide toe box for those looking to have more space for a more natural foot position.
