Features
The Altra Escalante Racer 2 is a streamlined road runner that takes the fan-favorite Escalante fit and makes it lighter and more responsive for your fastest efforts.
The Escalante Racer 2 uses Altra’s EGO midsole foam with a touch of firmness to give you a direct connection to the ground for a confident and quick turnover. From starting lines and fast training runs to HIIT workouts, this no-frills running shoe has all the speed you need to break PRs.
Details:
- Upper: An updated engineered knit upper gives you performance-focused breathability. The Escalante Racer 2 features Altra’s Original FootShape fit that gives you plenty of room for your toes to move freely.
- Midsole: Altra tweaked their EGO foam midsole for a more responsive and connected feel so no energy is wasted. The InnerFlex™ midsole is composed of grid-like grooves designed to provide flexibility and movement.
- Outsole: Less rubber and Altra’s FootPod™ technology reduce weight and improve flexibility to help the shoe move naturally with your foot.
