Worth every cent!
I can't say enough good things about this sneaker. After having daily pain in my feet for years, I am actually pain-free and I NEVER thought I'd be able to say that.

Have had less than a month and already have a hole.
I was so excited to get my shoes they are comfortable but less than a month of wearing I have a hole at the toe. I'm waiting to hear back from the warranty department to see how this will be handled.

This is not good.
I don't know what happened to Altra shoes in general, but I've now returned several different styles over the last month. I just returned the Paradigm 7 pair that was delivered today. They do not fit the same, there is no cushioning and there seems to be not enough fabric so they are tight across my toes. I used to wear Paradigm all the time, but the 7 is a whole different animal.

Different fit than the Paradigm 6
I bought these to replace my 6's which I wore out. These do not fit the same. The toe box is different. I had no trouble with my toes or foot pain in the 6 version. With these, I have black toe and fore foot pain after ~10 miles. Please go back to the 6 style.

Sizing and padding totally different compared to paradigm
First, 'paradigm 7' size 9 has so much material in the toe box you can just grab it up and pinch an inch easily, whereas size 8.5 is a perfect toe box fit, but of course shorter in length than you need for a size 9 foot. I have had a size 9 pair for a year and went back to try an 8.5 and that's what I found. Sales also surprised at the difference in extra material in the toe box. So I went back and tried on my old 'paradigm 6' pair that is a size 9, and it fits like the 'paradigm 7' size 8.5 shoe...and even though it's older, it feels more comfy. Now I need a new pair of paradigms and what to do? Searching for a pair of 'paradigm 6'!. I love the wide toe box and neutral shoe, but not very happy with Altra and their product quality and consistency. Recommend if you can find a size that fits...although as others have said they need to replace the padding.

Want the paradigm 6 style back
Love the Paradigm 6. This style does not fit correctly and the toe box is too small. Please bring back the 6 style as it was loved by many.

Harder than a rock - who stole the cushioning?
I have run in Paradigms for a few years - loved the toe box room and ample but not over the top cushioning. Just got the Paradigm 7 and whoa - not the same shoe. Super hard underfoot - none of the cushioning of the prior versions. My feet were tired and sore after 3 miles. I get it that designs change but then put a big warning on it - THIS IS NOT THE SAME SHOE AS V6.

Rips within a few months
Good sizing (went up about .5), but ripped at the heel within a couple months. Sad that the quality has gone down hill on these.

First time I've ever been disappointed with a Paradigm.
I've purchased the Paradigm for years and have always loved the fit and feel of this style until the 7 was released. I bought a pair as soon as my local running store had them in stock, but found out within my first 5 runs in this shoe that the footbed or quality of materials had changed. While I still feet arch support, the edge of footbed insert sits under my foot instead of slightly to the side like a glove. After this realization, I would alternate between my favorite 6 and this pair of 7s hoping it was a fluke, but sadly it was not. I kept them too long to return to my local store, and I didn't keep the receipt anyway because I was sure I would love them. Oh well, fingers crossed for going back to the 5/6 style drawing board when they release the paradigm 8!

I would love to rate these but I can't
I have ordered these twice now. The first time I got the pair one was a size 9 and the other a size 8. So I sent them back and ordered again and the same thing happened :(
