These shoes are so comfortable that I almost want to wear them to bed! Not really, but they sure get the job done everywhere else. From kicking it in my physical therapy clinic (Northwest Mobile), to working out in the gym, to backpacking, to running around town. There’s no shoe that I’d rather have on my feet. My toes have plenty of room to work and don’t feel packed in. The low heel allows my whole leg to be positioned as it needs to be for whatever movement or task is requiring my attention—whether it’s scrambling down from a peak, running the local trails, or doing lunges in the gym. As a physical therapist, I recommend Altra shoes over all of the others. MSRP: $150. Altrarunning.com
