The left arch is significantly lower than the right arch. I'm so disappointed. I should have heeded the negative reviews

Feels great to wear and run in! The wide toe box feels great as your feet hit the ground.

Definite improvements regarding quality materials and comfort with this shoe. I like to run on roads, and we get a ton of rain, so the tread design is ideal.

I am always looking for a good stability shoe and usually rotate between Brooks Adrenaline GTS and Hoka Arahi's but I could never use one of those regularly without alternating. Then I tried these and although there is less padding than those other two, the shape of the toe box and the build of the sole makes it easier feel how im landing while running. I've used these exclusively and haven't needed to rotate shoes so far !
I did get another pair of this model in another color ( so I could have an indoor and outdoor pair ) and took them out for a long run and something is wrong with the left. It feels like the arch is in the wrong spot or the build is wrong. I didn't notice at first but about 3-4 miles in , the outside of my left foot felt bruised and the next day I can barely stand because of the pain on the outside of my foot. Since I have this exact model in another color, I know it isn't how the shoes are made, something is defective in this left one.

I have had three same-side hip surgeries in the past four years; my PT recommended I buy these as my gait is still off! I am not a tennis shoe wearer, but the first time I wore them, WOW, now I wear nothing else!

I have the the Provision 7 and liked them so well I went to the site and found the 6 on sale. I'm not disappointed. I'm a nurse and new runner and I wear these for both work and outdoor running. I keep the others for the gym.

I now have three pairs of Provision 6. They are so comfortable and after a day at work my feet don't hurt. Two cow I have bought these on my recommendation and love as well.

I love these! I walk several miles daily and these are the perfect width for my narrower feet, and the support is perfect. Beautifully made as well, though I'd love some earth toned colors :)

I have bunions, hammer toes and arthritis and have an extremely hard time finding shoes that accommodate my feet. These were comfortable right out of the box.

Great tread, great treads, great heel and arch support, and plenty of toe room to wiggle while still supporting my rather narrow feet. Would definitely buy again- might even buy myself a back-up pair now!

Took a while to get used to, now love enough to buy more; need better colors! Strong dislike for pinks/purples/oranges/pastels); prefer greens/blues/reds w/black. Preferred to on cloud, hoka, brooks.

These shoes are great! I wear them for long hours at work in healthcare. I have NO pain in my feet (which is pretty uncommon for me). I also run/walk a lot in these shoes outside of work and I love how they feel and the support they offer.

Using this as a racing shoe for an upcoming triathlon, so cross training galore! Super comfortable from the moment I put them on, no slippage in the heel and very cute besides!

I’ve been searching for an affordable ($100 or less) pair of walking shoes with stylish looks and color options. It’s not that easy! I walk an average 15-20 miles a week so comfort was important. The Altras Provision 6 hit the mark on 2 out of 3 on my wish list. The shoe has a generous toe bed and super arch support. My feet don’t ache or get sore when walking on concrete. At the time of purchase, the in stock colors were limited in my price range but if you have a generous budget you’ll find a choice of raspberry and light blue. I chose the black/mint for $105. In another review, it was mentioned that the laces are too short for proper lacing and stability, and I agree. It’s not a deal breaker for me.

I run and work as a nurse so I have used a lot of sneakers in every brand- I bought these for work and they're so comfortable I plan to purchase a pair to run in! The wider toe box is *chef's kiss*

I walk at least 10000-16000 steps a day. I have the provision 6 and my feet do not feel tired and restricted after i take them off at the end of my shift. I never realized how narrow the toes are on my other sneakers until I tried the Altras. I do a lot of trail hiking and camping so I am curious to know how the trail shoes are but I am going to wait until they go on sale again.

These are so light and comfortable. My knee feels so much better in these. Definite improvement over my Hokas, Saucony and Brooks.

I absolutely LOVE these shoes! My everyday shoe size is 8.5, ordered a 9 and the fit is perfect. I love the soft area around the ankle. Light shoes! Great for the treadmill. I havent ran outside with them yet.

I am a middle school physical education teacher. I am on my feet all day long. I am 60 years young. These are the BEST shoes I have ever worn. They feel great and provide perfect support. My feet and legs feel great even after a long day at school on my feet. I will be buying more!

I have the TIMP 4 in the same size (9), and am really glad I got these. They are a slightly tighter fit, particularly in the heel (which I appreciate because I find the TIMP 4 a bit loose), but my toes have a perfect amount of room. I find these more comfortable for road running than the TIMP.
