Great fit, very comfortable but not durable

I've been wearing shoes for 9 weeks now and the tread is falling off. I wear them to work 3 days a week. I weigh 145 pounds. They're not exactly overused, I really feel like they should last longer.

Pros
  • Great light shoes, like walking on clouds.
Cons
  • May be slippery on some surfaces

When I received them I knew the tongue could be an issue as others have pointed out, but with socks on I don't feel it at all. I run, walk and work in these shoes and love them. I really like the wide toe box and soft feel. They are very soft. Like wearing my loafers! That's why I bought them in the first place. I have Morton's Neuroma and these shoes seem to ease the pain. My main issue with them is that I see the mesh material doesn't last very long. I'll give an update on that later.

Pros
  • Helps prevent plantar fasciitis
Cons
  • Too narrow for some people

Language problems, in my opinion

I've been wearing Torins for many years and even run marathons in them. On this new pair, they've replaced the soft foam tongue with something like sharp cardboard covered in sandpaper. After I ran a mile, he rubbed the front of my ankle. Maybe it's a saving on this new version of the shoe, but I can't wear it. Disappointing.

Pros
  • Excellent adaptation to the shape of the foot
Cons
  • Limited Warranty

Wears out at lightning speed

Two training runs and a half marathon. The rails wore out very quickly and one of them came off. If you can't afford to replace your shoes after a month, avoid them.

Pros
  • I like them, they are good
Cons
  • Expensive compared to other shoe options

Great shoes - my new review

It is very comfortable. Not my favorite piece of clothing for the gym but they are great for walking, running or just hanging out. I ordered half a size smaller and they fit perfectly.

Pros
  • Ideal for everyday life and sports
Cons
  • Compatibility issues with some orthopedic insoles.

The most comfortable shoes I've ever had in my life

I bought a pair from the Altra outlet store and they are the most comfortable show I have ever had in my life. I liked them so much I looked for another pair and found them at Revain for the same price. I'm tempted to buy another pair. I'm older, have wide feet and walk every day. They have a good toe box and a nice thick, resilient sole (older feet lose fat in the sole, and thin-soled shoes hurt on hard surfaces). The arch support sits in the right place under my foot unlike any other brand. I

Pros
  • Promotes proper alignment
Cons
  • Can be too flat and cause back pain

Happy Tutsis are the best in my rating

These shoes fit as expected. They're comfortable once you get used to the smaller heel-to-toe hop. They make me run very fast.

Pros
  • tight fit
Cons
  • Can cause fatigue during high-intensity exercise

i love altra But not this one

I have owned dozens of Altras over the years and almost every model they make. This was my first try at the Torin 5. The white pair were very comfortable, but to the point that they felt flimsy, like slippers. Not sure if it will hold up. Felt pretty cheap. White's second pair seemed a bit sturdier, but also cheap. Both pairs of shoes caused my feet to pronate rather sharply. In my opinion, if you want to wear slippers in the park and don't care about any kind of support or durability, then…

Pros
  • Ideal for long-distance runs
Cons
  • The insole may slip off during use.

Great shoes with no fall

My favorite shoe but after a little over a month the bottom fell apart. I've been running full and 1.5 hour Ironman races back-to-back for the past 3 weeks. Can you help?

Pros
  • Excellent cushioning ability
Cons
  • Not recommended for high impact sports

Excellent shoes, not very high quality of workmanship

These shoes are very comfortable, but the first day after purchase, the bottom of the shoe began to peel off. Otherwise it's a great shoe!

Pros
  • Clothes, shoes and jewelry
Cons
  • Unfashionable shoes
