I like the provision’s better and wish they would bring them back, but these are alright. My only two thoughts are that the toe box should be the next size up for the Altra widths, and the medial side of the forefoot could be a slightly denser foam. I’d like Altra to make a shoe with a guide rail and a little less cushion, like the provisions. The cushion feels good but it disconnects you from the ground. I’ve bought Altras because they’ve had shoes that give you that “middle-ground” of feeling connected to the ground and moving naturally, while also providing enough cushion and structure so that you can run on any surface for many miles. So far for these shoes, I’ve put around 100miles on them. Running feels good but I don’t like them for standing or walking.

These shoes work really well for me. I've enjoyed them right out of the box. Definitely my favorite pair of Altras and possibly my favorite running shoe of all time. Previous shoe was latest version of Arahi, these are so much better.

Best shoe in its inventory. I love these shoes. Great stability and cushion, especially in the forefoot, without feeling to soft. These are perfect for me. Hopefully they do not mess with it.

They are very comfortable with good cushion and great support at the same time. Coming from someone who had foot pain from bunions and plantar fasciitis, these are what the doctor ordered.

I have several pairs of Altra & I wear the stability versions. The Experience Form is the best Altra I have ever worn. Support is great and it is paired with best cushioning of all stability shoes.

I love the comfort of my Paradaigm 6's and were my favorite until the Experience Forms. I've been walking and running in zero drop shoes for about a year. Due to some low calf tightness/muscle tension from the increased tension of zero drop, I was super excited Altra came out with a dropped shoe. This has allowed me to keep wearing my favorite brand but takes the tension off my calves. I need a stability shoe and the experience form is my new favorite Altra! The foam is responsive and comfortable for everyday wear and running. I love the color ways and the black looks stylish to wear with jeans or shorts.

The Altra Experience Form shoes are my favorite so far. I've previously purchased the Torin 5, Torin 6, and Torin 7. These did not have enough shock absorption for running on concrete/pavement. My average pace has improved 30-40 seconds per mile with no other change than my shoes. Have been plagued by various injuries from other shoes, but feel incredibly strong running in these shoes. Altra should continue to invest more colors into this shoe - more neutrals (E.g., slate blue)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a long-distance runner (50 plus miles per week), these shoes have held up great. They have the perfect amount of cushion without feeling too heavy. Also as someone who has had plantar fasciitis problems, these shoes have not enhanced that problem. I really have enjoyed running in these shoes and will certainly be ordering another pair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time trying Altra but I was pleasantly surprised how much I like these shoes. I tend to have a wider foot but these shoes fit me perfect. Super comfortable and great for everything from trail hiking to everyday running. I would recommend trying these out!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried these out when I went running a few days ago and they were wonderful! Super comfortable and the quality is great. The shoes provide excellent cushion for your foot and fits TTS. I would highly recommend these shoes to anyone in the market for a new pair of running shoes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're a runner, you know shoes can make or break your runs. From the moment I slipped them on, it was evident that these were not your average running shoes. When you run, having supportive shoes is non-negotiable. These shoes do just that and do it extremely well. These shoes are supportive and comfortable, and I feel I can experience a hassle-free, stable, and injury-free run. The roomy toe box gives my toes the freedom to move naturally, and the secure midfoot ensures a snug fit without any discomfort. The rocker shape geometry and the low 4mm drop work seamlessly together to provide a smooth, quick roll through each stride. It kind of propels me forward, unlike what I've experienced before. It's such a cool thing to experience. The foam is lightweight and so soft, it's like running on clouds! I find myself reaching for these shoes every time I head out the door. I absolutely love everything these offer - the comfort, the glide, the softness, the performance, among many other things.

If you are an over pronater, this is not the shoe. It has very little stability compared to provision. The drop is unnoticeable and I often felt there was a drop anyways. The guard rail used did very little as well. I have had every stability running shoe on the planet and this is just a normal old neutral shoe. The provision keeps your foot well positioned and this shoe is not even close.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Altra and BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review. As an avid runner, trying out the Altra Men's Experience Form was a revelation. Its unique design, especially the wide toe box, provided unparalleled comfort during long runs, allowing my toes to splay naturally. The zero-drop platform felt liberating and helped improve my running form over time. In comparison to other running shoes I've tried, the Altra Experience Form stood out for its minimalist yet supportive construction. However, it might not suit everyone's preference, especially those accustomed to more traditional shoe designs. Overall, for runners looking to enhance their natural stride and comfort, the Altra Experience Form is worth considering.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fit itself with these is totally fine but my issue is the style. The round front is very odd to look at for many people around me and the shoe feels very thin and uncomfortable.
