Altra Escalante 3 Women's Running Shoes
An Altra classic is here with an all-new modern look. The new Escalante 3 is here to refresh your run with premium style updates like a sock-like upper material and added elastic for an improved fit to your foot. This new road shoe also comes equipped with an Altra EGO midsole foam and FootShape Fit for a versatile yet comfortable ride.
Engineered Knit Upper
Designed to provide complete comfort, the uppers of the Altra Escalante 3 utilise a breathable knit. The knitted upper has been specifically designed to adapt to your foot's movement without sacrificing performance. Not only this, but it is comfortable, breathable, and lightweight, encompassing all the essential elements to create a smooth, distraction-free run. Not only does the knit upper work to provide a contemporary look and superior comfort but, it also works to increase ventilation to keep you cool. The knitted construction allows air to flow throughout the construction to reduce an uncomfortable heat build-up; this creates a perfect micro-climate for your feet to thrive in. The sock-like fit ensures complete comfort for all-day wear by reducing the risks of chafing and irritation. Completing the upper is a lacing system which locks down the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.
Altra EGO Midsole
The Escalante 3 uses extremely responsive and high-performing EVA through the midsole construction of these shoes, which provides the foot with supreme cushioning and rebound. Using Altra EGO the shoe's foam midsole has been designed to provide added energy return and a responsive, yet soft, comfortable feel. The shoes have a Balanced Cushioning platform, to ensure your heel and forefoot are at an equal distance from the ground, encouraging better alignment, and further ensuring you remain comfortable. The FootShape toebox allows your toes to relax and spread out naturally for more comfort and stability in uphill climbs and downhill descents.
Durable Outsole
To supply feet with a long-lasting, hard-wearing pair of shoes, the Escalante 3's have a durable outsole. This outsole provides grip and traction on varying terrains, and InnerFlex also resides throughout. The grid-like grooves through the midsole are designed to provide flexibility and movement underfoot. Alongside this, the shoes have exceptional Footpod technology to encourage natural movements underfoot.
