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.

Disappointed

4 months ago

Too tight! Do not fit like old Superiors. My Superior 4.5s fit perfectly, but these are so tight I barely got my foot in. Then I loosened the laces all the way and realized it wasn’t the laces but the actual shoes weren’t made wide enough.

Best flexy running shoe out there.

3 months ago

This is an excellent shoe. I have a really hard time finding shoes that are supportive and soft with some flex since I have a fused ankle. This shoe has truly change my life and given me all of that and more.

the best trail runners in years

2 weeks ago

I bought this hoping to get strong grip for technical trails, comfortable for running sans socks, sturdy enough to last and this are PERFECT. I should say that I am more of a minimalist shoe person and this still allow me to feel the ground but without feeling the sharp edges of the terrain which is absolutely brilliant. I honestly might buy another pair to keep for later as it is hard to find shoes that feel so great and finding them a year later might be challenging. LOVE them

Tight, must return.

3 weeks ago

I ordered my usual size in Altra. This particular pair is slimmer than most of my others (and I have quite a few). The tongue of the shoe is permanently attached on the left side making it difficult to stuff my foot into the shoe. The material doesn’t stretch at all, really an odd design.

Too Small and Too Tight

4 months ago

I love the look of this shoe and the Altras I have bought have always fit great right out of the box. Not this shoe. It is painfully tight and will never fit well. I returned them immediately. I am really disappointed because it is a great looking shoe.

Fabric too stiff

2 months ago

I used to love the superior 5 was my fave sneaker . But they changed the fabric and now it is stiff, making it tight across the upper foot. Loosening laces & going a size up won’t fix this. Really sad they had to change this shoe for no reason.

Altra is my go-to

2 months ago

Super comfy from day one! Wide toe box with a good heel fit. I wasn't sure about the tongue being sewn to one side by the eyelets but it works well, keeping it centered and in place. True to fit, I wear size 10. Nice color, too.

Shoe tongue attached on one side

1 week ago

Love the fit of the Altra brand but this style didn’t work for me cause the tongue flap is attached on one side making it too hard for me to get in the shoe. I have both high arches and a high in step. Had to return them.

Does not run true to size

This is the 4th pair of Altra shoes I’ve ordered. It is the first pair that did not fit. Tooooo small. Now I will have to deal with the hassle of returning the, and trying to find another pair.

Not the normal feel or size.

I’ve been wearing Altra brand in the same size for 6 years and this one was tight and uncomfortable I would not use them at all and chose to return them to the store.
