It's the simplicity and FootShape fit of the Escalante, but even faster. We've made them slimmer, meaner, lighter and more responsive. Whether it's starting lines, speed workouts or fast training runs, this street shoe is all you need to break through some PRs and win some segments. It has an updated knit upper for a comfortable and breathable fit. It has ALTRA EGO™ midsole foam for responsiveness and direct connection to the ground, with a touch of firmness. We've retained many of the great features of the classic racer, including the low stacking height of 22mm for fast sales and a roomy toe box and zero drop for natural movement. The Escalante Racer 2 is one of the most direct no-BS shoes we've ever made.

Great shoes
These shoes are great. They are wide, with a breathable upper (a must in hot climates), that is strong and sturdy. I have used them for a 21 km run out of the box and there was nothing off, no strange roughness or hard rubbing. The cushion was more firm, but it's very nice in this way.
