Altra Escalante 2.0 Reviews

5 Rating 4 Reviews

This is Altra’s most popular zero drop and natural-foot-shaped running shoe: the Escalante 2.0. This latest version keeps all the best features of its predecessor with the addition of a new, softer and more breathable, knitted upper, giving an improved fit for an even more secure and comfortable ride. Flex grooves have been added in the forefoot for increased flexibility.

Positives - Comfortable, great fit through the foot, more snug than other Altras but paired with the soft inner lining they feel really nice, good lockdown through the foot and enough room to splay the toes. Responsive and light enough to use on faster runs and cushioned enough for longer runs of 90 minutes in my experience. My feet stayed relatively dry in the rain which was a plus too. Quite sticky and good traction on the bottom despite the smooth looking outsole rubber. I’m using them on a daily basis as I prefer to have one trainer that can do it all and this is working perfectly so far. Negatives - The tongue is on the short side which initially made it tricky to get a good lockdown on top of the foot and in the heel. After a couple of runs and a bit of messing around with the laces I’ve worked this out and the shoes feel great on each foot. I’d highly recommend the Altra Escalante 2.0 as you can tell! I’d also like to add that Run & Become were really easy to buy from, they dispatched the shoes very quickly and provided tracking details shortly after so I could make sure I was in when the shoe arrived, there was also a returns label in the package incase of any problems. I’d buy from Run & Become's online store again with confidence.

This is my fourth pair of Altra shoes and my second of the model. I love them I wear zero drop shoes but need cushioning for running. They have a wide toe box and excellent cushioning and by far best running shoes I have ever had.
