I train in these shoes (and sometime race in them) almost everyday. I own a couple pairs and rotate them - logging almost 600 miles per pair. I've never had an issue. I'm at about 2,000 miles this year in North Face AltaMesa 500 shoes.

Long time Ultra Trail Runner. After 12 pairs of " HOKA Speedgoat " I am trying out the Alta Mesa 500. Good fit , good toe box room, stable shoe and fit. Very promising ! The midosle is a little firm - could be a softer durometer. So far so good !

The shoes look great in black and orange. The fit is perfect. I wear size 9 but it’s more comfortable to wear a 9.5. This shoe didn’t disappoint. They are bouncy and comfortable when hiking. The toe box is plenty roomy for my liking. I do recommend these shoes.

I purchased these for myself during the summer. They are the most comfortable shoes hands-down. I am waiting for them to come out with some cool colors. Guess what, my wife received her own pair for Christmas. She loves them.

I am an urban dweller and do a lot of walking. The Altamesa 500 checks all the boxes, comfort, support and durability. My feet love the 500's. Daily does me right.

By pure chance, I came across a North Face sneaker in an ad. I've been a loyal Altra buyer for years because of the wide toe box, so I figured I'd hedge my bets and ordered two pairs of Altras and one pair of North Face. The North Face arrived first. The moment I put them on, I knew instantly this was the best tennis shoe I've ever had on my feet. The fit, the comfort, the balance it just felt right. A few days later, the Altras showed up. They feel great too as expected but there's honestly no comparison. The North Face stands in a class of its own. Consider me converted. Awesome shoe. John

This my second pair of Altamesa 500 trail shoes. I am 70 years old and have been a trail runner for almost 50 years. I have run in virtually every brand of shoes over the years and I have to say honestly " this is the best trail shoe I have ever run in". I put just over a thousand miles on my first pair before I felt any breakdown of cushioning. The outer sole is very sticky on rough and wet terrain. Despite a R2R2R in the Grand Canyon, Kings Peak in Utah, 3 x Pikes Peak in Colorado, San Jacinto Peak in California and many other runs, there is not one tear in the fabric or mess of the shoe. This shoe is my all time mountain goat and I cannot wait to put another thousand miles on this new pair. Never stop running dirt.

Truly one of a kind trail running shoe. I've bought two for myself and gave two other pairs to members of my family.That's how good they are!

Good choice for someone with arch support issues and as a senior walker, I wanted something that would provide good footing on a variety of surfaces. These are great for extended walks. They run true to size for length and width and will accommodate thicker socks. Also like the heel tab to help put on.
