Reviews overview
This is what other customers say:
So comfortable in every way. Have had this shoe for nearly a week, and I like it so much I've just bought another pair for the future, in case Altra stay true to form and change things for the next iteration. I like the lightweight & minimalist design, no fuss no frills take on this shoe. Just great support where you need it, and a nice wide toe box to allow the toes to spread out. The only caveat is, while they allow your feet to breathe well, they let water in easily so a run in the rain just means you get wet feet! I don't mind that to be honest but there isn't a wet-weather version of this shoe, but obviously Altra make other models with that in mind.

As a barefoot shoes user, this has been an immensely helpful for running. The zero drop and not too high sole makes running pleasant and comfortable without losing the benefits gained from using barefoot shoes. Ideal for daily runs or general walks. The wide toe-box makes it extra comfortable. I've been using the same pair for almost a year. Only downside would be it wears a little faster if you run on different surfaces but the comfort outweighs this negative.

These shoes started to show major signs of wear after only 3 months. At the heel the top layer of fabric has been worn though, the sole looks like it's been sanded down and the upper is pulling and has a small hole in it.
The shoes themselves are great, super wide toe box, comfortable etc. but I can't see them surviving 6 months which is not great for €140
