Altra Escalante Racer Men

The Altra Escalante Racer is a comfortable fast shoe. The shoe is designed for runners who want to get the most out of their training and competitions. The Escalante Racer is best suited for races of 5 to 10 km and for interval and tempo training. Accelerate to victory with this competition shoe, designed for top performance during every race!

Each Altra shoe is built on a Balanced Cushioned platform that positions the heel and forefoot equidistant from the ground, so with 0mm offset, or ZeroDrop™. This natural foundation encourages better alignment, a better running style and a low-impact landing. Whether you prefer maximum cushioning, low cushioning or something in between, Balanced Cushioning lets your feet move naturally with every step.

Midsole

The Escalante Racer has the Standard FootShape™ fit. This fit gives the foot enough room to move naturally. A slightly harder foam is used in the midsole with good energy return. This foam has been specially developed to offer you the most comfort during your run, regardless of the distance. The Innerflex™ technology has been applied to the foam. This is a grid of slots that cut through the entire midsole, both vertically and horizontally. This reduces weight and dramatically increases the shoe's flexibility without sacrificing cushioning.

Upper

The Escalante Racer has a knitted mesh upper, making it seamless and able to stretch with the foot in all directions. This knitted mesh upper also allows your feet to breathe, making it comfortable.

Outsole

The rubber outsole of the shoe provides good grip and traction while running. Because the FootPod™ technology is incorporated into the outsole, the shoe can bend and move naturally in response to your foot movements. You'll feel every step brings you closer to the finish in the Altra Escalante Racer, with maximum grip, optimal cushioning and a lightweight design.
