Altra Solstice XT 2
Features
Finally, a lightweight cross-training shoe that still feels good on runs—the Altra Solstice XT 2 will put a smile on your face from the moment you slip them on.
A 0mm drop and Balance Cushioning™ gives the Solstice a minimalist feel though it still has plenty of cushion and responsiveness to handle your toughest workouts.
The snug heel and caged upper wraps your foot for confident side-to-side cuts, and the flexible rubber outsole keeps you from slipping in your own puddle of sweat.
When good form equals a good workout, the roomy, FootShape™ toe box lets your toes splay out naturally for better balance and explosiveness.
Altra made the Solstice XT 2 to handle your HIIT workouts, weightlifting, short runs and whatever exercises your CrossFit coach throws at you.

Great all around show.
Absolutely love these! Comfortable all day and great for CrossFit.
Great gym shoe
I really like these for the gym I feel like I can easily move from lifting to plyometrics to running.
Good ground contact enough cushioning
I usually purchase slim shape but took a chance on the Solstice X 2 because I wanted a more flexible shoe with less cushioning. The fit is fine with slightly thicker socks. The tread gives just enough traction on moist surfaces but I probably wouldn't risk it on a slick surface. The lower stack height than most Altra shoes not only means less cushioning but it also seems to make the shoe more flexible. Purchased a second pair
Great but….
Great shoe except for the laces. The laces are difficult to keep tied especially when walking for longer distances.
The only ones
These solstice shoes are the only Altra that have enough space in the toe box. I tried two other Altra in addition too and had to return them be it the toe box was too small.They need to make more shoes like the solstice.
