Altra Lone Peak 5 Women's Trail Running Shoes - AW21

Product Information

Still, the comfort of this trail runner is well above much of the competition, even if some adjustments are necessary to further lock in the foot for downhills. We've tested this trail shoe rigorously, and the newest update proves to be one of the best iterations we've seen in a long time. Overall, this is a well-loved favorite amongst all trail goers due to its extra cushioning underfoot with a comfortable and roomy fit. I’ve worn these shoes twice in the rain, with puddles everywhere, and the grip on the rock we have here was good and they didn’t really pick up any mud, so that’s a big plus. v=1672677944","variant_ids":[42108846735588,42108846768356,42108846801124,42108846833892,42108846866660,42108846899428,42108846932196,42108846964964,42108846997732,42108847030500,42108847063268]},"available":false,"name":"Altra Lone Peak 5 SE (Women's) - Gray\/Teal - 4.

These items include but are not limited to; harness, ropes, belay equipment, karabiners, helmets, climbing protection. Footshape™ Toe Box -Allows your toes to relax and spread out naturally for more comfort and stability in uphill climbs and downhill descents.I don’t think they will wear well and anticipate seeing my big toe nail protruding through the fabric much sooner than I would like.

Additionally, because of the wide, foot-shaped toe spread achieved in the forefoot, you can easily stabilize your landing position on the forefoot. For anyone having problems with painful feet, I cannot recommend the Altras or any similar style/barefoot shoe) enough. The midsole contains many areas with features that provide the shoe with extremely responsive rebound and cushioning, as well as the standard EVA that also protects and rebounds. Our grippy MaxTrac™ outsole provides the perfect combination of grip, traction, and durability on all types of terrain. The FootShape toe box is designed to let your toes relax and spread naturally for extra stability and comfort uphill and downhill.The Inov-8 Terraultra G270 is another zero drop shoe that is more durable in our experience but is a bit more expensive and has a narrower fit in the toe box.

Gaiter trap technology allows you to attach a gaiter to your boot for additional anti-debris protection. For the first time, Altra EGO™ midsole foam meets the Lone Peak line, bringing responsiveness to every step you take, so any road, any trail, any terrain—the Lone Peak 5 is ready. The Lone Peak 5 is a foot-shaped technical trail shoe with a wide splaying toe box, loaded with cushioning underfoot.Balanced Cushioning™ platform – Places your heel and forefoot the same distance from the ground to encourage proper, low-impact form throughout your trail run. It offers a 0mm drop, meaning that there is no additional cushioning in the heel compared to the forefoot.

For reference, I walk on pavement, gravel trails, rocky non-trails, grass, and all terrains are comfy. That said, after running through rivers, you can expect it to dry out quickly with water escaping from the porous upper. They are super supportive, stable, have LOTS of toe room, but they gently hug the heel and inner part of the foot for support.We love this shoe, and it's a classic in the ultra running and hiking community for its foot-shaped design and superior comfort. The Lone Peak 5 is lightweight, but just cushioned enough to give miles of comfort through varied terrain. One of the things I love about Altra is that in most of the their models they have a nice, squishy tongue.
