Product Highlights:

Ahhh, the Escalante—known and loved for its everyday comfort and just-right moderate stack height. If you're checking it out for the first time, rest assured that the Altra Escalante 5 stays true to its winning formula: pleasantly balanced foam, natural flexibility, forefoot space, and daily versatility.

For many, the underrated star of the show is Altra's EGO midsole foam. This modest, medium layer of protection somehow manages to blend an enjoyable hint of squish, bounce, and sturdy predictability. As ever, it's well-suited for short-to-medium-distance daily training runs, casual wear, travel, and even some work in the gym.

For better longevity and grippy connection to the ground, this version gets an updated rubber outsole. Then, wrapping your foot in understated comfort, the engineered knit upper features an updated ankle collar and a soft, brushed tongue to improve on its modern-classic feel.

With its zero-drop platform and Standard FootShape fit, the Altra Escalante 5 brings lightweight, connected energy for running roads and all-day wear.

MIDSOLE 

Altra EGO foam is modestly upgraded, but stays true to its classic, balanced, versatile feel.  
Updated sockliner and strobel layer provide a refreshed underfoot feel. 
OUTSOLE 

Improved rubber outsole increases grip and durability for running, gym, and lifestyle wear.   
UPPER 

Engineered knit offers simple luxury, with a soft brushed texture lining the underside of the tongue. 
Standard FootShape fit is Altra's most common, right in the middle of Original and Slim. It provides your forefoot the space for its natural alignment, allowing your foot to act as a strong and stable foundation.
