Sizing Notes
Altra’s unique FootShape™ toe box and zero to low shoes are built to place your foot in a natural position, with a stable and confident foundation to run on. When fitting, be sure to allow a full thumb’s width in front of your toes. If your feet are used to cramped toe boxes, Altra shoes may feel a little big at first. Give your toes some time to get used to the newfound wiggle room.
Altra offers a range of FootShape fits:
Original Fit: The fit that started it all, Original is the roomiest of the 3 options from Altra.
Standard Fit: The most common fit from Altra is right in the middle of Original and Slim.
Slim Fit: The slimmest-fitting Altra option still allows room for your toes to spread out naturally.
IS THIS SHOE TRUE TO SIZE? The product Features above will provide a suggestion if Altra advises you to size up or down in this particular shoe. If no such note exists, please order your regular size.

This has been my favorite shoe for awhile. I work at a running specialty shoe store so I've tried many shoes and I love the slim foot bed and wide toe box. I love the sleeker look with the rivera 4

I really like this brand for the support and comfort, however the toe scuffed and came apart within the first 2 weeks.

Finally a decent white option
1 year ago
I've been wearing altras for 10+ years and am always a slave to whatever horrible color choices I am presented with (but they are literally the only brand I can wear so it is what it is). This is the first shoe they've made that is mostly white without an obnoxious additional color. Altra staff: you desperately need to hire a new style/design person. You would sell 1000x more if your colors options were better. I actually listened to a podcast where this topic was discussed lol.

The first few day of wearing these, I wasn't sure if I'd like them, but after my feet got used to these...I am going to buy a second pair!!! I bought brooks ghost 16 and returned them to get another pair of these, they are so much more comfortable on my foot and feel more natural. I can walk for hours in them without any pain. I'm so happy I'll never go back to another brand!

Finally, a slim fit Altra!
1 year ago
So happy with these shoes. My feet run on the narrow side, and I have a hard time finding shoes that fit well. The description for this shoe says it is their "Slim Fit" - so, buyers with wide feet should probably steer clear but others with normal to narrow sizing can benefit from the foot friendly shape and toe box. Yay Altra! Please keep making Slim Fit options :)

Not Like Prior Pair

I probably should have returned these shoes but the problems weren't apparent immediately. Basically the shoes feel small in the length (especially the left shoe curiously) and they didn't have the same width as a similar pair I bought a few years ago. I have a neuroma and my podiatrist recommended this brand due to extra width. Maybe if I bought a half size up?
No, I do not recommend this product

Not the same shoe
1 year ago
Love the RIVERIA 3 but ordered the 4 because like the last reviewer I liked the colors so much better. The shoe rubbed on my ankle bone. The RIVERIA 3 is cut slightly lower and does not do this. Returned and now ordering more of the 3 before they are gone. Might work for some but not me. I wear a 7.5 in this shoe. 7 on On shoes.
No, I do not recommend this product

I'm so glad I bought these!

I bought these when I decided to get back into running. My chiropractor recommended the wide toe box and zero drop and said it would be much easier if I just started my couch to 5K app with Altra. Love them! No foot or ankle pain. I wear them all the time because I don't want any thing giving me ankle or calf pain.

I love the support and wide toe box. Recently, I wore these as I toured DC. Lots of walking and no problems! Walking is my way to exercise and since I have RA these shoes are perfect.
