Customer Reviews Altra Superior 6

I bought these for a grass volleyball tournament I was playing in. I was very apprehensive to keep these because they felt too tight around the top of my toes, but didn’t have enough time to exchange before I needed them, so I decided to just go with them and they worked amazingly!! No blisters after hours of playing in them, the treads were great and they ended up being a perfect fit! These are my first “foot shaped” sneakers and I won’t be looking back!

my mid-foot is wide and I had surgery so this shoe was not comfortable for me. topos are wider in the toe box.

This was my first time trying the Superiors (or any trail running shoes), as I wanted something for walking trails with my dog. I was surprised by how tight they felt at first—so much so that they were quite uncomfortable to walk in. I even returned my first pair but decided to give them another shot. Turns out, removing the insoles made all the difference! Without them, the fit was perfect. I started by wearing them for neighborhood walks, and they felt great. I’ve only taken them on the trails once so far, but I had no issues. I’m not sure if all trail shoes fit this snugly, but if you find these too tight, try removing the insoles—it makes a huge difference!

Beautiful shoe but too small--I will have to return.

Our whole family loves Altras. It should be known that for people used to the instep freedom of a Lone Peak, the Superior has a stitching detail on the sides of the shoe toe box that restricts the ball of the foot more than the Lone Peak. The stitching makes the ball of the foot feel more snug than the Lone Peak. We have wider toe beds, and it wasn't as comfortable.

I wear a size 7 1/2, ordered an 8 1/2, and these were too tight over my foot! Atypical of other styles of Altra.

These shoes were in my regular size 9 but a little tight and the toe box was too shallow. They would probably work for someone's else's feet but I'd order a half size up.

Am an Altra wearer for 5+ years, I know my size, and I love zero-drop shoes, but these did not meet my size expectations. They look great, they'd probably be great if they were sized properly. Sadly am returning these, but keeping the Provision 8's which did meet my expectations.
