Altra Men's Sizing Information
Men's Sizing Chart
We want you to have the best fit possible. Please follow our tips below to find the right size for you:
- Firstly, we recommend measuring the length of your foot in centimeters.
- From that length, we recommend adding 0.5 centimeters to have the right amount of extra space for the tip.
We generally suggest ordering Altra running shoes ½ size larger than a lifestyle shoe. Some styles (such as Lone Peak and Torin) are available in Wide. Our Wide versions are wider in the midfoot, heel, and forefoot than our standard models.

Who is the Men's Altra Torin 6 suitable for?

- Neutral runners

- Altra enthusiasts
Neutral Runners
The Men's Altra Torin 6 is ideal for neutral runners or those who do not overpronate or underpronate. In other words, overpronation is excessive rolling in of your foot when you run. The shoe provides a balanced platform that allows for a natural footstrike.
Is the Men's Altra Torin 6 good for the road?
This shoe is ideal for road runners. This is because its lightweight construction and cushioning make it a great choice for runners who predominantly train on paved surfaces.
Speed-Oriented Runners
The Torin 6's lightweight design and responsive cushioning make it suitable for runners looking to pick up the pace during workouts or races. It offers good ground feel and energy return for faster running.
Long-Distance Runners

Altra Enthusiasts
If you're already a fan of Altra's zero-drop platform and FootShape toe box, then the Torin 6 will appeal to you. For example, it retains Altra's signature features, allowing you to run with a natural foot shape and gait.
Runners Seeking Versatility
The Torin 6 is versatile enough to handle a variety of running activities, from daily training to tempo runs and even some road races. If you're looking for a do-it-all shoe, it's worth considering.
