Why We Like The Altra Rivera 3 Running Shoe

From training runs to shorter races, the Altra Rivera 3 Running Shoe keeps our stride feeling good. The platform's balanced foam and grid-like grooves let our feet roll naturally through transitions, while the roomy toe box lets our digits splay freely for greater balance and power. The Slim FootShape fit is leaned out heel to toe for a more performance-oriented fit that doesn't mess with our natural foot mechanics. As we stride, the soft yet responsive Altra EGO foam promises to send the energy from our strikes right back to us.

Altra Rivera 3 Running Shoe

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer
Size Bought:
9.5

Love the Low drop heel with open toe box. Can't run in anything else. Purchased these 2 weeks before a relay race -Hood to Coast 196mi. Comfortable and ready for that run. Did great!

Rivera 3

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

I love Altra shoes, I have wider feet and these shoes work well for me. This model in particular seems narrower than other Altras I've worn and runs a little bit smaller. If you have very wide feet maybe go with a different model. They also gave me blisters on the back of my heels the first time I ran in them, not sure why. Perhaps this style is not the best for my particular feet. Love Altras tho!

Yes the product is good and I can buy it

I use it for hikes and when going for runs in the morning since the shoes are more than comfortable and also prevents my feet from sweating and swealing,,it fits perfectly and the different sizes makes it suitable for everyone

Would buy again

Chiropractor recommended brand. Shoes are great, laces are not. Will be upgrading laces because they don't stay put.

Love 'em

As someone who loves foot shaped and zero drop shoes, but who has narrow feet these shoes have been wonderful! It's like running on a cloud but with the feedback from and grounding of the earth.

Shoes are not wide toed at all

I bought these as they were labeled to have a wider, more natural fit. Completely untrue. I took them out of the box and immediately saw how narrow the toes are. They are no wider than my regular tennis shoes and much less wide than a different brand I own, as shown in the pictures.

Too Narrow

This shoe is not the Altra feel- it's too narrow which gave me foot pain and shorter in the toe. I am now switching to Topo since they know how to stick with wide toe boxes. Sad bc Altra used to be best

Feels great but already wearing a hole in the shoe

Love how these shoes feel. Super comfy. In fact, they're the most comfortable running shoes I've ever bought and I've been a runner for 30 years. The only negative thing about these shoes is my big toe has already worn a hole on top of the soft material. I've only had them for less than 2 months, so the hole was disappointing. This shoe offers a lot of cushion and I love how roomy the toe box is. Great shoe!

Third and Favorite Altra Shoe Purchase

This is my third style of Altra shoe I've purchased and so far is my favorite. I like how the toe box is still roomy but not as wide as other styles. Very breathable and dries quick when they get wet. One thing I don't love is that the shoelaces don't always stay tied unless I remember to double knot but that's a minor problem and easy fix.
