Altra Escalante 5 Black Road Running Shoes

The Escalante 5 from Altra is designed for runners who want a natural feel and close contact with the ground. With a low stack height and zero heel-to-toe drop, it positions the foot for an efficient, functional running technique and is suitable for road running, walking, and speed work. At its core is the Altra EGO midsole, delivering responsive cushioning while preserving ground feel. The updated rubber outsole offers solid grip and durability for long miles on asphalt. The FootShape Original fit provides extra space for the toes and allows natural foot spreading, while the engineered knit upper adapts to the foot for a secure, comfortable fit. The shoe also features an updated tongue and redesigned collar for a classic, comfortable feel.
