ALTRAMen's TIMP 4 Sneaker

So I have been wearing only ALTRA for almost 10 years now. I’ve owned almost every type, including their dress shoe, which I miss very much and wish they still made it. Anyway, this is about the TIMP. This shoe is outstanding and to me. It is much more comfortable than the Olympus and the lone Peak. I know it’s supposed to be the shoe in between, but I believe this is the superior shoe in my opinion. I wasn’t sure about the tongue when I first got it because it’s an odd shape and I figured that the low socks that I wear it would bother it, but it doesn’t rub my ankle or leg at all. It feels like there is extra cushioning in the shoe which is nice for comfort in long walks.To be perfectly honest after my last pair of shoes that I bought from ALTRA I was almost done with them. The Torins I bought fellas parts so fast. That I was sure they were my last pair. But I needed another pair and I decided I love this brand so much that I was going to give them another shot. And besides, I have yet to find another shoe that fits me as good as the. ALTRA do. I cannot heap enough. Praise on how much I like this shoe and the size fit just as expected. These are the main thing I wear now walking or just going out in public. I have a pair of Escalante’s that I really like as well and I believe they are starting to get a little bit jealous because they don’t get worn as much. I am not a podiatrist I am just a blind guy who likes to walk with my elderly mother and do a 5K every day at least. I want to tell you I wore art supports most of my life because of my super flat feet and since I have been wearing. ALTRA I have not worn and arch support sense. I hope this review help you in your search for a new shoe and if this is your first time with this brand, I hope you enjoy it. Happy trails.

Very good cushioning. Used in the gym for body pump and weights. Also helps that it looks great.

Another great show from altra!

These are a good looking shoe, with a great heel loop, lots of lacing options, and solid heel support. As with my other Altras (15+ pairs?), they were ready to go out of the box with no break-in time, and an average of 10k per day on multiple surfaces. My Altra's usually last about 4-5 months, with a SuperFeet green insole... I'm 6'2" 205. However, these are falling to pieces within 2 months. The sole is slick, and my pinky toes are literally popping out. They feel much more cushioned than previous TIMPs, sacrificing control and balance. My last few rounds of "new" Altras have had the same durability issues, but not quite as bad as these. I hope they go back to their previous quality/price standards. I'm giving Topo's a try in the meanwhile.

Only shoes I wear to help my knee pain.

Only kind he will wear. Love Altra

Bought these for my son for his many adventures this summer. Got them the beginning of June and at the beginning of August they are falling apart. He has loved them other then the fabric is shredding on both sides of the foot. He’s used them for maybe 80 miles. He had the previous model of the Timp and didn’t have this problem. We have dozens of Altras and have never had an issue with them. The seller we bought them from said to contact Altra about a manufacture defect and Altra says to contact the seller since they are not an authorized dealer.

These are the only brand of shoe ive worn for years, they hold up very well

I've run across some very boggy fields in these and never felt my footing slip.The size is my normal (size 8).They wash up fine (cool wash) and look good as new after being completely muddy.Would buy again.
