Characteristics
{{H:cushioning}}. The Escalante uses expanded TPU beads instead of the more usual EVA foam. That’s the technology that’s found in the [[Adidas Energy Boost]] and [[Saucony Freedom]] and it’s a relatively new technology. The idea is that TPU provides more spring than EVA foam and it lasts longer. The Escalante is better cushioned than the Boost, and quite a bit lighter. Like the Boost, it has the springy, bouncy feel that makes TPU cushioning so attractive. The level of cushioning is actually up there with the massively cushioned Hoka shoes, and it’s virtually the same as the [[Hoka Odyssey]]. The Escalante provides this level of cushioning with a midsole that is much thinner (25mm compared with 45mm in the Odyssey), so you don’t have the stilt effect that can create additional stress on the ankles. Other than being nicely springy, I didn’t find the cushioning was strange or unusual, unlike the Freedom that was just slightly weird. The Escalante has a moderately thick insole, but it seems to be rather more resilient than some shoes I’ve tried. <br/>[[File:Escalante Clifton Comparison.jpg|center|thumb|300px|I compared the Escalante with the [[Hoka Clifton]] side-by-side, which is not something I’d recommend as the difference in heights can cause injury. This height difference was dramatic, but the shoes felt surprisingly similar in cushioning. If I landed heavily I could feel the extra thickness of the Clifton, but not during more normal running.]]
{{H:drop}}. Altra always claim issues a zero drop, but typically I find they’re out by just a few millimeters. The Escalante is actually a slightly negative drop shoe, with the forefoot higher than the heel. I doubt if many runners will notice this, as it only about a millimeter. I found that overall, the Escalante felt very natural under foot, and the almost zero-drop is part of the success.
{{H:structure}}. There’s nothing about the Escalante to interfere with your running form. The midsole is slightly higher under the arch, but this shouldn’t be enough to make contact, or create pressure that could irritate the plantar fascia. There is no medial post or other structures that would try to limit pronation.
{{H:flexibility}}. The Escalante is quite flexible, and the forefoot is springy; I’m not sure if that really improves running economy, but it certainly doesn’t hurt. The gaps in the rubber outsole allow the forefoot to bend evenly, rather than causing a crease in a specific area.
{{H:outsole}}. As you can see from the pictures above, the Escalante has harder rubber outsole under most of the sole of the shoe. This hard rubber actually protrudes a few millimeters, so I’ve seen no evidence of midsole abrasion at all. The shape of the sole does not create any stone traps.
{{H:shape}}. The shape of the Escalante means that there is relatively little reason to [[Shoe Dissection| cut open the toe box]]. When looking from above, the shape of the shoe matches the human foot reasonably well, though like all Altra shoes it’s a little exaggerated, and there is not quite enough room for the smallest toes. If you look at the shoe from the side, there is not quite enough headroom, but that wasn’t too much of an issue with the Escalante. Overall, the shape was good enough that I didn’t have to cut open the toe box, though issues with the upper did cause me to open the Escalante up (see below).
{{H:upper}}. The upper part of the Escalante is mostly seamless, and quite stretchy in one direction. It’s thick material that make it is one of the less breathable shoes I’ve tested in a while. With the exception of the toe box issues, I found the upper extremely comfortable. The ankle opening is rather more cushioned than a typical running shoe. It’s close to the massive cushioning that made the [[Altra Instinct 2]] feel a bit like a skateboarding shoe. The main issue with the upper is that the toe box upper folds down during toe off and pressed on my toes. This was not a major problem, but I found it did make my toes ache slightly. After about 200 miles in the Escalante, I gave in and cut open the toe box. I was surprised how much difference it made; it’s a bit like a slight headache that you don’t really notice until it’s gone. {{H:TryCuttingShoes}}<br/>[[File:Escalante Toe Box.jpg|center|thumb|300px|Here you can see how the toe box upper folds down and presses on my toes during toe off.]]
{{H:tongue}}. The Escalante has a traditional styled tongue that is sown in along one edge to keep it in place. I think this is probably one of the best approach is to tongue design. There is no padding in the tongue at all, but the material that used seems to spread the forces fairly well, so I don’t think many runners will have an issue with the laces irritating the top of the foot.
{{H:lacing}}. The Escalante has flat laces that work reasonably well, but they’re a little slick, and I had a few occasions where they came undone mid-run.
{{H:heelcounter}}. The Escalante has only a slightest hint of a heel counter, and unless you probe carefully you’re unlikely to detect it. While I’d rather there was no heel counter at all, this is one of the more benign designs.

Update after 240 Miles
I’ve really enjoyed my first 240 miles in the Escalante. It’s been a truly wonderful shoe to run in, and I’ve been struggling to move on to the other shoes I need to test. Not only has the Escalante proved to be remarkably well cushioned for its weight, the springiness of the TPU foam has made it feel remarkably responsive as well. I cut open the toe box at 150 miles which greatly improved the comfort for my toes, but I doubt if many runners will have to do that. I have had reports of the toe box upper causing other runners some issues, so I’m not alone in having issues. I’ve also had a report of one runner finding the tongue a little too thin so the laces irritate the top of their foot. Otherwise I’ve heard only good things from the running community. As you can see from the photo below, there is very little wear on the outsole, and the upper shows no signs of abrasion either. There is a tiny bit of midsole compression under the ball of the foot, but it’s so minor it’s hard to detect. There’s a little bit more compression of the insole under the ball of the foot, but at the 200 mile mark it’s not enough for me to consider [[Replacement Insoles]]. So far, the Escalante is living up to the longevity promise of the TPU foam, and is one of my favorite running shoes.

Update after 320 Miles
At 320 miles, the Escalante are showing their age. The good news is that the upper looks perfect, and there’s almost no signs of wear on the outsole. I’ve highlighted a couple of minor wear patches, but they are very minor.

The bad news is that the insole is completely dead and the midsole is starting to compress. The Escalante has a relatively substantial insole that was about 5mm thick when it was new, but it’s now collapsed under the ball of my foot so that it’s only about 1mm thick post run. Like most foam, it will bounce back a little if you don’t wear the shoes for a few days, but it collapses again quite quickly when you wear them again. I’ve used [[Replacement Insoles]] to offset this, and the Inov-8 6mm insole works reasonably well. It’s not quite the same shape as the original, but it’s pretty close. Even though it’s a 6mm insole, it’s also not as thick as the original. This is partly because the Inov-8 6mm insole is only 4.5mm thick in the forefoot, and partly because it’s slightly corrugated, to the effective thickness is probably more like 3mm. The Sof Sole Athlete insole also works quite well, making the Escalante much softer (possibly too soft for some.) It also adds a couple of millimeters of drop and about 1 oz of weight.

|[[File:Escalante Insoles2.jpg|none|thumb|x200px| The Inov-8 and Sof Sole Athlete [[Replacement Insoles]] overlaying the original insoles.]]
|}
Unfortunately, there’s also some compression of the foam midsole, with a noticeable depression under the ball of my foot. The TPU foam has lasted longer than the traditional EVA foam, but it has its limits. I think that the replacement insoles can give the Escalante a little more life, but I suspect the end is in sight.
