This is the wide fitting version of the men's Altra Paradigm 7, a broader, roomy running shoe that aims to combine maximum cushioning, comfort, and natural stability. Tailored for those with mild overpronation, these shoes feature a premium engineered mesh upper strategically reinforced for durability and breathability. During lengthy runs, when fatigue sets in, the innovative Guiderail technology steps in, maintaining a steady gait cycle and curbing unwanted rolling inwards.

Whether you run with a neutral gait or are tacklingmild overpronation, the Paradigm 7 is a great option.

The 'Standard Footshape Fit' toe box strikes a balance between volume and width, affording your toes the freedom to splay naturally, enhancing cushioning and stability while improving your toe-off. Adding to the luxurious feel, the shoe features a plush collar and tongue for irritation prevention, ensuring a secure fit with an optional extra lace hole for added confidence during your runs.

Beneath your feet, the Altra EGO MAX midsole provides superior cushioning without the 'soggy' sensation, and technologies like INNERFLEX and FOOTPOD ensure flexibility where it counts most. From new runners on your journey to 5k to veterans on their longest recovery/everyday runs, the Altra Paradigm 7 has an impressive blend of comfort and some very natural feeling stability. We loved this shoe, so go check out our review.
