Altra Torin 9

Altra Torin 9 review: what runners say

Fit

True to size, no adjustments needed. Wide toe box for natural splay; runners with a high instep may have issues with the tongue folding under.

Feel

P35X dual-density midsole: firmer outer layer, softer inner layer. Balanced, connected ride with a livelier rebound than previous versions, without tipping into excessive softness.

Durability

Vibram XS Run AW outsole rated approximately 20% more wear-resistant than the Torin 8. The P35X appears to hold its response past 200 km where the EGO Max would break down.

Best for

Neutral zero-drop daily trainer for easy runs, recovery, long runs, and everyday use. Not a race shoe or a fast-pace shoe.

Weak points

The tongue can shift on high-instep feet, requiring mid-run adjustments. No aggressive energy return: runners expecting tempo-stride responsiveness will be disappointed.
