Altra Men's Cayd Shoe

I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for Altra to come out with a casual sneaker that is sort of dressy. You NAILED IT with the new Men's Cayd. I just received my new pair today in brown and I am instantly in love. I am an exclusive Altra shoe guy for hiking, running, walking, and working out for all of your classic identifiers, viz., zero drop and large toe box, good longevity, etc. Sure my wife calls them my "Clown Shoes" but I don't care. They feel good and I know they are good for me. The Cayd strikes a near perfect balance of good looks, style, and nice leather quality. I don't know if I want to take them off tonight - I may sleep in them! Thank you for finally making these.

I became a fan of Altra shoes a few years ago when I discovered that the typical sneaker was too narrow for my foot. Sadly, I had to return the last two pairs I bought--including the HIIT XT's, which I really wanted to like--because they lacked the forefoot comfort I'd become accustomed to. When I saw the Cayd's, I was instantly drawn to their casual design and decided to give them a shot. So glad I did. They look great and have the familiar roominess up front that I look for. They did require a little break-in time, but after a few occasions everything is all good. I got the black pair and if the soles were black, I could even get away with wearing them to work. As it is, I love these shoes so much I got a second pair in brown.
