Product Details

Men's running shoes Altra Escalante Racer 2 gray/orange

Upper made of breathable mesh

The structure of the upper is based on the use of breathable mesh, which facilitates free air circulation around the foot. During running, intense movements do not block the airflow, allowing moisture to be effectively drawn away from the skin's surface. During exertion in high temperatures, this design reduces the risk of overheating and helps maintain dry skin even during long training sessions.

Altra EGO™ midsole

The Escalante Racer 2 model features a midsole based on Altra EGO™ technology, which is responsible for a responsive bounce during running. The structure of this layer reacts to the pressure of the foot, adapting to the force and pace of each step. During intense training sessions, the foot receives support at the push-off and fluidity upon landing.

Reflective elements increasing safety

During a night run, special reflective elements clearly reflect the light of passing vehicles. Their placement makes the runner's movement noticeable from a distance in conditions of limited visibility. As a result, evening training takes place with better exposure on the road or path.

Altra EGO™
Altra EGO™ foam in the midsole provides the perfect balance of energy return and softness, resulting in a dynamic and comfortable running feel. Its responsive structure supports the natural movement of the foot, improving cushioning and step efficiency.
FootShape™
FootShape™ is a footwear design that mimics the natural shape of the human foot, giving your toes more space to move freely. With a more anatomical toe box, it increases stability and improves comfort during movement, especially over longer distances. This solution allows the foot to move without restriction, supporting the natural biomechanics of the step.

    Great crosses

    They are of high quality, the foot feels like it's wearing no sneakers, there is no pressure anywhere, the forefingers are in their natural position. The price is not small, even at a discount, but there are no competitors.

    How to measure insole length - instructions in 3 steps

    1. Remove the insole from a shoe that fits well on your foot and place it on a flat, hard surface.

    2. Mark the tip of the insole (the furthest point near the toe) and the back of the heel.

    3. Measure the distance between the marked points with a ruler or tape measure - this is the length of the insole, which should be compared with the size chart.
