Altra Men's AL0A4VQE Lone Peak 5 Trail Running Shoe

Product Information

Overall, I am impressed with the Lone Peak 5. I am finally starting to see the benefit of maximalist type shoes, but I’ve got a soft spot on my heart for the minimalist revolution from a decade ago. Also, I didn’t have any hot spots, but if you need to do some fancy heel-slip lacing, there was a bit of lace bite up near my ankle. Conclusion

The Lone Peak 6 Wide, like the Lone Peak 5 Wide is actually no wider than the regular width, yet has more volume in the upper to fit a higher volume foot. Depending on the shape of your foot this would make the Lone Peak 6 Wide worth a try if you usually only fit in men’s 2E/4E or women’s D/2E running shoes. This is one shoe that the laces are long enough to use both top holes if you really need to, which I am finding is rare these days. Footshape™ toe box allows your toes to relax and spread out naturally, for more comfort and stability. MaxTrac™ A perfect combination of grip, traction, and durability that will eat up gnarly terrain like a boss.The Lone Peak 7 has gained more weight, but you don’t feel it. With a gain of 0.4oz (14g), it’s difficult to feel the weight difference, but as always, when shoes gain weight, they’re going in the wrong direction! Maybe it’s the new rubber? Or the extra glue they need for the overlays; either way, I’m not sure the weight gain is warranted with this update. For those looking for a wide sizes, rejoice! The Lone Peak 5 comes in a wide version. And if you’re looking for water resistance and extra warmth, you might be interested in the waterproof version of the Lone Peak 5. Call for Comments

It’s ideal for those wanting a shoe that allows for more natural foot function. Because of this, I would choose the wide in the future, and I wouldn’t consider my foot overly wide, just average, but bare in mind I’m a barefoot runner used to wider fitting shoes. and Post. It’s advisable to use a service that insures the parcel in the event that it goes missing in transit.The cushioning was a little on the softer side, but it wasn’t a marshmallow. While I wouldn’t choose the Lone Peaks for speedwork or short, speedy racing, I could still get a good, responsive push-off from them,” said tester Kelly A., who has a neutral gait and a wider foot with an average arch height. Balanced cushioning places your heel and forefoot the same distance from the ground to encourage proper, low-impact form throughout your run. There’s a bit of arch support in these which feels nice under foot, especially for a zero drop shoe that normally sees a flatter midsole profile.
