No, I am not wrong in saying Altra "sucks." They make shoes with a dinosaur mentality that sucks in the weak-minded and novice runner. Here is why I think they "suck" for me -
1. Design is important and they look like Wal-Mart shoes
2. Every model is a zero-drop shoe.
3. Owner just wants to be bought out by a larger brand.
None of those reasons make them suck me ; )
I've been running for 40 years, and I wish I Altras back in my competitive days (1980's-2007) when I was doing 80-100 miles/wk in the best shoes out at the time, as I think my feet would have been much more comfortable and I'd have suffered fewer injuries.
