Our Take 

The Altra Torin 6 is an everyday trainer for the runner seeking a zero-drop road shoe with a foot-shaped toe box and ample cushioning.  Built on Altra’s most common last, the Standard Footshape fits in the middle of the Original and Slim.  Compared the Escalante 3, the Altra Torin comes in at 4mm more of midsole and their more cushioned Altra Ego™ Max midsole.
