Repeat rate No.1 model is a major update

The thinnest 22mm cushion among the Altra road shoes is a lightweight model that gives you a feeling and ground feeling from the soles. We continue to adopt a knit upper material that feels a comfortable fit that wraps the feet, and has a breathability that supports even hot and humid Japanese climate. Even if you use it on a rainy day, if you dry it in the shade, it will dry it the next day, so if you really want to run even on a rainy day, you can choose this model.

In addition, modern running shoes have many structures to protect their feet excessively, and the muscles, tendons, and joints on human feet are often difficult to move. It is a perfect model for those who want to realize the movement of barefoot and activate the original movement of the feet.

Those who want to adopt natural walking and running efficiently. From veterans to beginners. It is also a model loved by those who walk in the neighborhood and those who do gym training.

Since its appearance in 2018, such Escalante Racer has been sold continuously without a significant renewal as a unique model that feels like Altra. In the renewal after seven years from the launch, three points were changed mainly, "grip", "shape (last)", and "stability".

Let's write about three changes.

1. Grip

In the outsole design of the toes up to the previous work, although the ground feeling was good, the durability and grip power were slightly inferior. In this work, it has a reputation for durability and grip power, and has been changed to a familiar sole pattern in Escalante 3 and Torin 7. In order to maintain the lightweightness that is also the characteristic of this model, the unnecessary rubber of the middle foot is devised.

2. Shape (last)

From "Standard", it became the most relaxed "Original". It was originally a classic design, and it was a relaxed compared to other models, but the height of the heels and insteps can be felt somewhat.

3. Stability

By changing the forefoot to a shape like a boat bottom, the left and right blurring when landing is minimized. Although it is difficult to understand by appearance, it can be said that the sense of stability when putting your feet is more than the previous work.

If you are new to Altra, there is no doubt that Escalante Racer 2, who is active in various activities such as walking in the neighborhood, running, and gyms.

Sense of size

In Altra, the most generous "Original" foot shape design is adopted, and those who are wearing other road models select the same size or half size down. If you are wearing a previous escalante racer, there is no problem in size without changing.

If you are wearing Altra for the first time, Altra's shoes are guided as a size that is less likely to cause trouble because of 1.3 cm from the toes. For example, if the measured value (length from the heel to the toe) is 25.0cm, the size equivalent to 26.5cm is selected because the size with+1.3cm can afford 26.3cm.
