ALTRA Men's Lone Peak 7 Trail Running Shoe

I'm not going to lie, I've been through a lot of trail shoes. From clunky behemoths to minimalist nightmares, I've seen it all. But the Altra Lone Peak 7? This, my friends, is a game-changer. It's like they took everything I love about trail running and distilled it into one perfect shoe. **First things first:** comfort. These shoes are like plush pillows for your feet, even after miles of gnarled roots and rocky ascents. The zero-drop platform and wide toe box let your toes splay naturally, preventing that cramped feeling at the end of a long run. And the Altra EGO™ midsole? It's like running on a cloud of springy goodness, soaking up impact and keeping your legs feeling fresh. **But don't let the comfort fool you.** These shoes are grippy beasts. The MaxTrac™ outsole digs into loose dirt, hugs wet rocks, and laughs in the face of mud. I've scrambled up scree fields and bombed down loose gravel slopes with unwavering confidence. The 5mm lugs are the perfect depth, providing traction without feeling clunky. **And the upper?** It's a thing of beauty. The seamless, stitch-less construction is like a zweite Haut, disappearing around your foot and moving with you like a second skin. It's breathable enough for summer sun and surprisingly water-resistant for those surprise puddles. Plus, it looks sharp. I've gotten compliments on these shoes from fellow trail runners and city slickers alike. **Sure, no shoe is perfect.** Some folks might find the wide toe box a bit roomy (though I love it for toe wiggle room on long runs). And the price tag might make some wince. But for me, the Lone Peak 7 is worth every penny. It's an investment in your feet, your enjoyment of the trails, and your overall trail running experience. **So, if you're looking for a trail shoe that's comfortable, grippy, stylish, and built to last, look no further.** The Altra Lone Peak 7 is the real deal. It's not just a shoe, it's a trail running soulmate. **Five out of five stars, hands down.** Buy these shoes. Your feet will thank you. **P.S.** I almost forgot about the StoneGuard! This little rock plate is a lifesaver on technical trails, shielding your feet from those sneaky hidden stones. Just another thoughtful detail that makes the Lone Peak 7 such a winner.

This is my second pair of ALTRA Lone Peak 7 shoes in this colour. My first pair wore out around the heels and parts of the soles after multiple long distance hikes (1,000 KMs +) across Spain, Italy and Switzerland and up Mount Kilimanjaro (apart from Summit day) and various other hikes and mountains. I found them very comfortable from the get go. The wide toe box ensures next to no toe friction avoiding any blisters. There is plenty of grip (although I would prefer a Vibram sole) and enough cushioning in the sole across rocky terrain. I love the colour and design and preferred to stick with the 7 rather than the 8 for that reason. I own a pair of LP 6s and the major improvement in the 7 for me is that they let in less water when walking across wet fields and grass. They still let in a lot through the fabric so I take alternative socks and soles to change in to. But overall outstanding.

I use these almost exclusively for hiking. They are very comfortable with no break in period. I usually have hot feet, but these seem to breathe very well and keep my feet cooler. I prefer light colors for shoes for this reason (not a fan of the crazy vibrant or dark colors on most Altras or other trail runners). The shoes dry relatively quickly, within 24 hours with the insoles removed in a dry climate. I used these to hike the Zion narrows for several miles up and down and they worked well for this purpose. I replaced the insole with a Dr Scholls planter fasciitis insole in order to increase the cushiness and support, which has seemed to work well without being too stiff. The soles are soft so you will feel irregular objects that you step on. These shoes could be better with the grip and durability of the outsole. The tread seems to wear down ~60% after 200 miles of hiking. My first pair has ~330 miles on them with a small amount of tread left. The tread is not very grippy, especially after 50% tread. The compound gets slippery if going from water/snow to rock. I wish these had vibram rubber or something grippy and more durable lugs. Also, be careful when slipping these on because the cushioning in the heel can become dislodged and bunched up under the fabric if you don't use your finger or a shoe horn to slide your heel into the shoe. Otherwise, these shoes are the most comfortable of all the hiking shoes that I have tried on. Hopefully Altra doesn't ruin these with unnecessary redesigns aside from the outsole which needs to be beefed up a little.

It is comfortable and I got it mainly because of the wide toe box and it is not a barefoot shoe. But the insole feels cheap and along with that the tread wears away very quickly I have had this for 6 months and I will be running low on tread. Other than that it is a comfortable shoe and only gripes are those other than that it is very nice and my feet have all the space they need.

Zero drop shoes have made a difference in my life and knee and back. The Altra Lone Peak is great for trail running, hiking and rucking. I have had several pairs and am impressed with quality and fit.

Love these shoes .very comfortable

Comode e leggere, pianta molto ampia.

Very comfortable and I use them often

They are without a doubt the most comfortable pair of footwear I currently own, however this is my second pair after having to return the first due to them being way too big. I did buy the wide fitting version and typically wear a UK11 but I ordered these in a UK10 and they are literally perfect. I have walked over 20 miles in them since I got them on Friday and they are brilliant. Good quality, light, comfortable and they look decent too.

de buena calidad, muy cómodos talla calza de acuerdo al modo esperado
