Review on ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ ALTRA Women's Provision 5 Running Shoe by Steven Emberling

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Why is ALTRA trying to reinvent shoes?

Good ALTRA makes the wide toe box perfect. However, they add all these other ridiculous tricks to their shoes! These shoes are very comfortable, like walking on clouds. However, the laces don't go through the tongue, so you have to constantly pull the tongue back when walking. I had to stop 4 times during the 5 mile hike to get my tongue back to its original position. There is a very odd wire in the laces that pulls that second leash around your foot. Fine, but why? Please leave ALTRA alone! You make a great wide toe bed and my blister on my baby toe is gone. But the second lining and the loose tongue let a lot of dirt into the shoe! WHY!?!?!? I now have two layers of insoles to pick dirt stains out of!

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Negative present
