All Women's Road Shoes

  • Daily TrainersDaily Trainers

    The baseline definition of a running shoe. Daily Trainers lean on time-proven designs, technologies and features for dependable cushioning, support and comfort. They're a staple in every runner's closet, and if you are new to running shoes, then you should start your journey here.

  • Performance TrainersPerformance Trainers

    Performance Trainers provide a springy feel and make longer runs easier and faster runs faster. While quicker than Daily Trainers, Performance Trainers are not nearly as fast as Super Shoes. Due to a focus on keeping things light weight, Performance Trainers are less durable than Daily Trainers. These can also be a good option for one's first race shoe.

  • Super ShoesSuper Shoes

    Super Shoes are the fastest running shoes you can buy. They are designed to race your absolute best and represent the pinnacle of running shoe technology and innovation. They have the highest energy return foams and plates for new levels of performance. Low durability, but maximum speed is the name of the game here.

Men's Running Shoes by Surface

  • Roads & PavementRoads & Pavement

    Road running shoes feature smooth outsoles that are designed for running on paved surfaces such as roads, sidewalks, and bike paths.

  • Smooth Trails & FireroadsSmooth Trails & Fireroads

    Designed to handle most trail runs, these shoes prioritize comfort and a smooth ride. These shoes are great for anything from smooth singletrack, park trails, and fireroads making them ideal for those who run from their doorstep on streets before hitting the trail.

  • Rocky & Technical TrailsRocky & Technical Trails

    These shoes are best used for hard, rugged trails such as shale, granite or sandstone where grip on smooth surfaces and underfoot protection are important.

  • Soft & Muddy TrailsSoft & Muddy Trails

    Designed for use in muddy, soggy conditions, these shoes feature very aggressive outsoles that dig deep into soft ground for exceptional traction.

  • Snowy & Icy TrailsSnowy & Icy Trails

    These shoes feature technical outsoles designed to grip snowy and icy trails making them ideal for winter trail running.

Cushioning Level

  • Cushioning level, or stack height, refers to how much shoe is between your foot and the ground. For this category, we reference the amount of cushioning below the forefoot as the heel height will be equal to or greater than the forefoot height.
    Learn more about stack heights and how we measure them.

  • Barefoot

    0-13mm. The Shoe generally does not have a midsole and feels like there is no cushioning. This shoe is all about feeling the ground underfoot.

  • Minimal

    14-18mm. The shoe has a thin midsole that allows for a natural running experience. Racing shoes and minimalist shoes are common here. These shoes offer a feeling of being connected to the road or trail.

  • Low

    19-23mm. The shoe has a slightly cushioned feel and may feature added cushioning technologies. Performance training shoes and some trail shoes are common here. These offer protection during footstrike but prioritize a lightweight, grounded experience.

  • Medium

    24-28mm. These shoes have a stack height that fall near the middle of the spectrum.The shoes in this category are verstaile and great for all types of runs and distances.

  • High

    29-34mm. The shoe has a thick midsole and ample cushioning. These shoes are highly protective and absorb more impact than the body.

  • Maximal

    35mm plus. The shoe has an extremely thick midsole and extra cushioning. The focus is on protection and soft foam underfoot with hardly any ground feel.

Stability Level

  • Neutral

    Neutral shoes support the foot through a normal range of arch collapse and generally do not have a built-in technology to correct movement.

  • Stable

    Stability shoes are a great option for those who overpronate or need added support. These shoes help to limit the inward rolling motion of the ankle while running or walking and assist in guiding the foot straight through the gait cycle.

How We Measure Our Shoe Specs

  • We measure every shoe in-house to provide accurate and consistent details.

  • Weight

    The weight is based on a Men's size 9 for Men's and Unisex shoes or Women's size 8 for Women's shoes. The weight listed is for a single shoe, including the laces.

  • Heel Stack

    The heel stack refers to how high your heel sits above the ground when wearing shoes. Based on Men's size 9 as the standard.

  • Forefoot Stack

    Forefoot stack refers to how high the ball of the foot sits above the ground when wearing shoes. Based on Men's size 9 as the standard.

  • Heel-toe Offset

    Heel-toe offset (drop) is the difference in height between the heel stack and the forefoot stack. We use the number given to us by the brand.

How We Measure Shoe Fit

  • All measurements are based on Medium width.

  • Fit (width) options are Narrow - Snug - Average - Roomy - Wide.

  • Sizing (length) options are Short - True - Long. Note: fit is relative to the "average" running shoe.

  • We partner with SmartLast, a program by Heeluxe, to use advanced shoe-measuring technology, to provide objective measurements for toe box, midfoot, and heel widths as well as overall length.

WonderfulGreat shoes, so comfortable, very happy I tried them. Was an avid Saucony Kinvara runner since version 2, but they ruined them after 13. Took a chance with Altra and will never go back! Hooked!

Tried and True!I'm currently on my third pair of Altra Escalante 4's and I've used them from the gym, road, and trails. These are my go to for training and I would recommend anyone to give them a try. Each pair has gone well passed 100 miles before I order a back-up pair ready to continue training. I would recommend giving them a try.

Great service, good new iterationMany reviews say this is a callback to the Altra 2.5. I’d say those are probably the closest comparison. They feel more rigid than the 2.5s, but not inflexible. Definitely less rigid than the 3, most notably in the upper (I actually liked the upper in the 3 more). They are very light and seemed responsive the first couple weeks of running. I have extra wide feet, so I have to size up half a size and I removed the insoles. I did have to send my first pair back to Running Warehouse because the seam where the tongue meets the toe box on one of my shoes was coming apart after only about 40 miles of running. Running Warehouse promptly sent me a new pair free of charge. Overall, I think I’ll enjoy the shoe. They look nice, are very light, and feel close to previous iterations of the shoe, which makes them feel familiar. I do wish the mid foot was slightly wider for my wide feet, I’d like the upper to be a bit firmer like the previous model, and I’m a little worried about durability. I’m hoping they will last me at least 500 miles like all their predecessors. I think it’ll be a decent shoe, but time will tell whether or not they’ll hold up.

Great service and product!This is the 2nd purchase I have made from Running Warehouse. Very fast and no problems. Love the Altra Escalante 4 shoes and good price. I am glad to have a reliable alternative to Amazon! Thanks!

Good for short to medium runsAbout 35 miles of mostly 3 mile easy runs, some strides, and a 10k PB! Lightweight and comfy. Only complaint is the tongue is thin and floppy and wants to scrunch down over my toes. Not sure I would do much more than 10k at a time in these but I like them for the 5-10k range.

Love this version!!This is one of my favorite Escalantes. Very comfortable and look great! I have always enjoyed the style of the Escalante over the other Altras. I also love that I can run fast, slow and walk in them with maximum comfort.

Comfort with only one flawThe Altra Escalante 4 is a very light and comfortable shoe. I bought it to use as an everyday wear vs as a running shoe because of the wide toe box and I would prefer more support while running. It is a quality shoe, and I would recommend it, but it does have one flaw which others have mentioned as well (in my research). The tongue is very finicky and moves around too easily especially when putting on the shoe.

Great Shoe!I used to run in nothing but New Balance. Now, I’m not sure I’ll go back to them. The Escalante is a great all around shoe for me. 43yo/6ft/185lbs Wide toe box is a welcome change as my previous shoes got more and more narrow. The low heel-toe drop is awesome and they’ve got just the right amount of cushion where it doesn’t feel like I’m “beating” a run (treadmill or street). Even after my runs, they’re a comfortable walking shoe. I’m a pilot, so luggage space can be a premium and this is the *only* shoe I have to pack for being on the road!
