Product Summary
If you’re looking for a minimally-cushioned running shoe for speed sessions, the Escalante 4 can be beneficial thanks to its low stack height of 24 millimeters and responsive Altra EGO midsole foam. The engineered knit upper also improves over-the-foot comfort and provides flexibility across other paces like jogging, walking, or simply running errands.
