Customers find these shoes comfortable and appreciate their cushioning, with one noting it provides good impact protection for running. The shoes offer excellent traction even in slippery conditions and provide great support, with one customer mentioning they relieve knee and foot pressure while running. The fit receives mixed feedback, with some finding it true to size while others say it's too narrow, and the quality and durability are also mixed, with some finding them excellent while others report cheap quality and durability issues. The foot protection receives mixed reviews, with some praising the underfoot protection while others find them awful on wet terrain.

I don't understand how a shoe can go from perfect size (superior 5) to so small I can't get my foot into it (superior 6). Frankly I'm embarrassed and ashamed for Altra, it's redemption time for Altra to rise like a Phoenix from the ashes and create great shoes agan like before they sold out, to this end I pray...we all pray together that Altra will re discover what once made it great when runners rejoiced in foot shaped roomy shoes.

These are the best Superior to date. Last one wasn't bad but the super soft sock-like nature was a bit too exposed and awkward. The foam is incredible and underfoot protection is next level on the rocky trails I run on, especially when considering the minimal stack height. The foam also seems denser and more resistant to squish than the last model. The outsole is also not a death trap on wet rock like the last model, much improved. Good work!

I've had every version of the Superiors. Loved the 5s other than the toe cap delaminating inside on all 4 pairs I had. Hoped this would be fixed; sadly I can't tolerate how narrow V6 is in the forefoot

I absolutely love my Superior 4s, so I was excited for the Superior 6. Unfortunately, these shoes have way too little interior volume. With medium smartwool socks (and even the thinnest I own) it was clear there was absolute no way my foot would fit in these shoes. Far too much pressure on the outer top edge of both feet. Very strange as all of my other Altra size 11.5 shoes fit extremely well. Minor feedback: The green laces and green trim on the black, grey, and orange version feels very out of place.

I'm new too already having just discovered it. Love the superior 6, great toe box room, good fit. Used them on a 28 mile backpacking trip.
