Improved!
Have only worn the Olympus 6 previously. I like the Matrix upper and love the volume in the toe box! Feels more spacious than the 6, especially the height. The pillow in the heel of the 6 didn’t bug me like many others but the lockdown was not great. Much better fit and lockdown on these. I have a very narrow heel and like a looser tie on my shoes because of neuromas and get no heel slip. A more plush feel. More comfortable step in feel. Great so far, hopefully they hold up over time.

Massive Improvement
These might be my new favorite Altras. I have Lone Peaks, Superiors, Timps, and now the 275 Hilo. The weight reduction is significant, these weigh less than my Superior 4's, despite the increase in support and cushioning. The new tread works well in dry or wet conditions, and is a big step up from previous Olympus outsoles. Previously they had a large foam patch with lugs, and this wore out quickly, as well as the forefoot lugs. The spacing and design of the new lug pattern seems to be built to last. The upper is exceedingly comfortable, despite being so robust and durable. A built-in scree sleeve is something I would hope to see on more shoes moving forward. The width is also spacious and comfortable, and I found the upper to stretch and expand with use. Overall, they're a great shoe and possibly my favorite yet.

Another favorite from Altra
Been running in Altras for more than a decade, and these are some of the best shoes I have ever run in, road or trail. The Vibram sole is perfect, it has the traction up and downhill, on loose dirt or slick rock. Midsole has just the right cush, and it’s made out the same EgoMax that I got 700 miles out of in the Torin 8. Oh, the gaiter is rad too.

I love this shoe!
I have had many Olympus shoes over the years and they have been great. The Olympus 275 has been the best so far with the improved ankle cuff and durable Matrix upper. I did my 1st run in the 275 HiLo and they feel great. Keep it up Altra!
