Altra Torin 8

Altra Torin 8 review: what runners say

Fit

Runs slightly longer and wider than previous versions; those who normally sized up can stay true to size. More defined heel, less slippage than the v7.

Feel

Plush cushioning with updated EgoMax foam, soft underfoot feel. Smooth but low-reactive ride, oriented toward comfort rather than propulsion.

Durability

RunRepeat cites durability as a declared strong point. Specific mileage not reported by sources.

Best for

Zero-drop neutral trainer for long distances, easy runs, and daily use. Suited for forefoot strikers and wide feet; not recommended for heel strikers.

Weak points

Weight increase versus the v7 (approximately 278 g to 292 g). Non-gusseted tongue; foam still considered improvable by some sources.
