Scarpe da ginnastica per tutti i terreni Altamesa 300 V2 - THE NORTH FACE

I really liked V1 of these when I bought them in November 2025, so I came back for a deal on V2 when I needed a fresh pair of shoes in the pipeline for an upcoming 100-mile race. The forefoot space is great for my wider toes, though they fit true-to-size length-wise. If you don't have wider toes, these shoes might not be your favorite. The lace upgrade is a welcome improvement when combined with the extra eyelet, keeping the shoes secure with no lace slipping during use. Traction is better than V1 with the improved outsole. In V1, I would get a suctioning when running on brief pavement segments, but V2 doesn't do this. I liked how these fit and they worked so well on a 4-mile break-in run that I ran the Wasatch 100 this year in only these. The cushioning was more than adequate for >30 hours on my feet, and they stayed in place really well on the steep and technical descents, including the traction. Uphill traction was also fantastic, no slipping backwards on the gnarly steeps. The one place where these could use a tweak is in the midfoot: the updated upper is great, though the midfoot feels much looser. I have to lace these up far more tightly across the middle of my foot than V1. With the new laces, the shoes stay in place on my foot, hence 4/5 stars.

By the way, these shoes have excellent cushioning! They’re very comfortable, provide great support, and are perfect for walking. Definitely a great choice!
