Much wider in the midfoot. I actually think Altra is fairly narrow in the midfoot. I have issues with many of their models, even the Long Peak. The toe box is similar to a new Esclaante, or Torin. And it's much deeper for me.
At what point are you measuring 11.4cm? Looking at your measurements, you have a similar length to me, but an extra cm on the width which does make your feet relatively wide. I can't imagine many brands working great, sorry. What shoes do you use right now?
@@barefootrunreview thank you for your response. I currently wear RealFoot Natural Runner 2 - it would be dope if you review these! I also wear SoftStar Primal Runamoc. I do have a pair of Altra Escalante Racers in 10.5 that I wear during the winter with a couple of wool socks. I thought since I could wear those, that these would fit pretty well. How does the width for the bahe revive compare with the escalante racers?
@@hood4thought699 realfoot + softstars completely make sense! But I'm surprised by the Escalante Racers. I even find them snug in the midfoot. Still runnable, but not perfect. I would say the Bahe's are wider than Escalante Racers, and for sure deeper.
@@barefootrunreview heel slip and I have a bone spur/deformity on my left foot and not one single altra shoe(literally tried on every altra shoe), flux, or xero hfs work with it lol and all those shoes also had heel slip for me even with runners knot The only shoe that worked was the OG racer
@@barefootrunreview bone sour is midway on outside left foot so heel slip is unrelated to it. I just have narrow heels I guess and the only shoe that would lock them down was the OG racer
@@austingarlow5340 ok, I'm going to say the Bahe isn't for you either then sorry. The heel cup is fairly deep. Even though it may help the midfoot. The best I can think of is the Vivobarefoot Primus range. likely the knit version to help the midfoot. The heel is narrower and not as deep. Have you tried them in the past?
I've ended up with about 200km on my pair. I don't reach for them all that often because I'm in the trails more often than not now. All parts of the upper have held up well, no wear to be seen at all. Of course the outsole is starting to see some wear, but it's to be expected for 200km. I think I'd get them to ~7-800km before the lugs are smoothed off. And even at that point you can run them on the road, as I have been doing.
20mm seems on the large side, but fit is not all about length. If I were to go on the length only, dropping a size would reduce that 20mm to around 12mm, which sounds better. But if that doesn't fit your width, then it'll never work. My advice would be to order EU42, test it for size, and if you have issues return it for the EU43. Bahe have a 30-day return policy.
Thanks, Nick! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the escalante 4 and racer 2.
I can't wait to try them. It just takes a while for things to ship to NZ :)
TY so much for focusing on depth 😊
why did i just find this channel? Awesome reviews! I am very interested in this shoe but not sure what size to get for my 26.5 x 11.4 splay feet
Awesome review
In terms of width how would you say this compares to Altra in the midfoot, specifically Originally shape or Wides (Torin/etc)
Much wider in the midfoot. I actually think Altra is fairly narrow in the midfoot. I have issues with many of their models, even the Long Peak. The toe box is similar to a new Esclaante, or Torin. And it's much deeper for me.
i have printed out the template for the size 13 even though i am normally a mens 10.5 or 11, they are nowhere near as wide as I thought they would be

I hate the racer 2 and the escalate 4, I was using the OG racer but can’t get them anymore, is this a good replacement to the OG racer?
Mmm tough to say. Theres some structure in the heel you may not enjoy. What issues did you have with the new Escalantes?

@@austingarlow5340 where abouts is the bone spur? Do you think this is related to the heel slippage, or is that unrelated?

How have the shoes soles held up?

So I printed out the size chart and size eu43 fit my forefoot and toes the best but it has 20mm extra in the front, do you think that is too much?
20mm seems on the large side, but fit is not all about length. If I were to go on the length only, dropping a size would reduce that 20mm to around 12mm, which sounds better. But if that doesn't fit your width, then it'll never work.
