It included some more technical, steep climbs and downhills, dry and rolling single-track trail, road sections, wet stones, and gravel.

I easily ran through water and never felt like the shoes got heavy or waterlogged.ĭuring the test period, my longest run in the ATR 5s was a 12 mile trail race.

I have bony feet, so it’s amazing that they don’t get even a little sore and they didn’t feel fatigued. I can say I noticed that these were more comfortable on harder surfaces than previous versions–the bottoms of my feet didn’t get sore during any of my runs. This is supposed to allow for a smoother ride on harder surfaces, but also better grip on more technical terrain (including wet conditions). They are closer together near the heel and further apart near the forefoot. Even switching from my road shoes to the ATR 5s was easy.Īccording to Hoka, the change in the outsole was mainly the distance between the lugs. I never felt like I needed to adjust to the shoe. In fact, the 5mm drop felt comfortable and so similar to my ATR 4s that I nearly forgot they were new. There was no time needed to break the shoe in. It’s very similar to the ATR 4, so it doesn’t really take any time to adjust to it if you’re just wanting to put the shoe on and run.įor the first run, I was able to put the shoes on, tuck my favorite insoles inside and go.
