I have had one run in these shoes, which were delivered a couple of days ago.
First impressions:
- Well made.
- a unique wide toe box. This shoe seems designed for the toes to splay out when you land on your forefoot.
- size runs small. I would order a whole size larger than usual. In my case I already do this because I can never find a toe box which does not squish my toes... these are perfect.
- not a plush ride, not the shoe I would use for running long distances on a flat, hard surface such as a road. But perfect for trail running on uneven and varied ground.
Overall I am thrilled. I can highly recommend these, especially at this price.

Worked out great on a challenging 7 mile hike last weekend. Gripped great on rocks and felt nice on the compacted trail. I wear a 9 and didn't have any issues ordering a 9. I have switched to Altras a couple of months ago after having crazy toe pain in other brands. These look and feel very durable. I enjoy the open feeling I am giving my toes and they are not on fire.
I have anklosing spondylitis, not sure if it is effecting my foot joints but having a wide toe box definitely helps.

I'm 9.5 (size :) and they fit well. "Foot shaped" is great, Hokas caused blisters between toes by jamming them together (crazy to have shoes not shaped like feet.) Like soft back (no sharp plastic heel cup.)
Best soles. Wore out Olympus which also say Vibram Megagrip. King's have deeper lugs, mid foot has hard rubber, feel stickier, better on wet rocks, logs.
I prefer more cush and had small sharp pressure, thought from plastic buckle. It was from unnecessary tongue gusset bunched up under strap. Smoothing gusset and not tightening strap much prevents that.

Great price but these run so small I feel they need a caveat in the description. I am an 8.5 or 9 in every shoe I have ever owned. I’ve never needed a 9.5 in any shoe... until these. I hope I am able to exchange the 9s.

Great grip even on tricky terrain. Have held up well for a few years of light use.

Perfect for OCR!
Bought these for Spartan Races. Had to size up half size larger. I like the velcro on the top, and they are fantastic with grip and durability. Definitely recommend for trail running and races.

I love the wide toe box as this is specifically what my foot needs. It's so hard to find good trail runners with this feature. However, this shoe did not fit to size for me. Every shoe that I have purchased over the last 40 years has been 10.5. I need at least an 11 in this shoe so I am stuck with a shoe that is too small. My initial research indicated that this shoe fits to size. However, currently I see some advice that indicating that Altras run a 1/2 size small. Be warned!!

Good for a casual walk.
Like other Altras, this shoe has a large toe box that allows your toes to spread out. The down fall I've found with this shoe is the design and composition of the sole. I live in VT and spend a lot of time hiking in the Green Mts. The Green Mts are green because they get a fair amount of rain. This means the trails are often wet. My experience with these shoes is that they are fine walking along, but put them on a wet rock, especially going down hill, and they slip too often for my liking. I understand Altra trying to find a balance between durability and traction, but I don't think they've found it with this shoe for these conditions. I think these shoes would do well out west where the trails tend to be dryer.
