ALTRA Men's Lone Peak 8 Trail Running Shoe

My go-to trail shoe. Light, zero drop, thin soled, and grippy. Highly breathable and comfy for my flat, wide foot. I've been running trails in lone peaks for years. The sole isn't the most durable but for the grip it's well worth it. Bony prominences will wear out the fabric faster so don't be surprised if the mesh tares on that hammer toe or wider toe box. By that time I transition the shoe to a daily walker. Pick up the gators to keep trail debris out. Enjoy your time on the trails

I'm wearing them right now! Super comfy and grippy and durable and protective and breathable and suitable and useable and loveable and walkable and runnable. Supports my arches like amazingness. Very lightweight and fit well. Amazing value.

Awesome. Wide toe box. Comfortable and lightweight. Durability isnt great, but for comfort I trade durability.

These are great shoes - I'm on my fourth pair now. The wide toe box is nice and comfortable. My only complaints are the following: The uppers can be a bit stiff at first which makes them not so comfortable when you first start wearing them. However, once they get broken in they are extremely comfortable. The other issue which others have stated here is parts breaking down - this is also my case where the inside padding on the heals started to get worn out before the rest of the shoe. However, this problem for me isn't isolated to this shoe or brand and is quite common across a number of trail runner's I've owned over the past 30 or so years. If you're on the fence, wear them around town for a while to get them broken in before hitting the trails and I think you'll be happy.

I love these shoes. Listen, the world doesn't have to live in extremes. My feet need low-drop, but not barefoot-thin soles. I want my shoes to be lightweight, but not paper-thin. I want them to look ok with shorts or jeans, but not scream beast-mode. These are flippin' awesome. Very comfortable, decent cushioning and decent arch support. I weight 225lbs, I wore them through a summer vacation trip to Washington, SO MUCH walking, and these shoes were comfortable and supportive throughout. After that, they became running shoes, and they've served me for a dozen runs at 3-4 miles each, I have zero complaints. BTW, a few of those were on dirt and gravel, and these shoes performed admirably; good traction, and roots don't hurt. Fit is accurate, I wear 13 in Nike, Vans, Ecco, Bass, and these. Toe box is just a smidge roomy. The only critique I have (8 months into ownership) is that they take stains pretty fast. It's my own fault for wearing them to wash pots and pans... but just a few splatters of dishwashing water, and they're stained forever. Still, I would absolutely recommend these to a friend, and/or buy them again.

Love these shoes. Bought this pair because I saw the 8s are discontinued, lone peak 9 is the replacement. I like the color (they did not have this color option in womens) and wanted to get one to put on the shelf for when mine die. Used for daily wear and hiking in Utah with no foot pain. Did take a bit to get used to zero drop, but now other shoes feel weird as I can feel them lifting my heels. I have tried other zero drop shoes, but could feel every rock or bump hitting the bottom of my foot... and wearing through the store on concrete was painful. Thankfully, these shoes are not like that and I can wear all day. I bought a size 7, I have a womens pair in a different color sized 8.5.

Best shoe I’ve ever owned. These shoes are that good that I’m not sure I will ever go back to the mainstream runners. The zero drop and wide toe box are everything I’ve needed for so long! Thank you ALTRA!!

Im an ultra runner, and I've been wearing Altra since 2020 with no issues, including multiple pairs of the Lone Peak series for about 2.5 years. I Ordered these last month and found that they cause severe calf pain. To make sure it was the shoes I reverted to an old pair, the pain began subsiding, and when I tried these again the pain came back. I was able to reproduce this process multiple times. By the time I could be sure it was the shoes, I found out Amazon would not let me return them, and Altra will only give me a 15% discount on shoes from their website, which would still cost more than I paid for these. From a search online I found others beginning to have this same issue with Lone Peak and Altra in general. I'll have to find a new brand now, and I'm completely out the cost of these shoes. I'd avoid if you can!

Já usei muitos tênis de trilha mas esse foi, sem dúvida, o mais confortável deles. O espaço para os dedos faz toda a diferença, o tênis é leve, bastante respirável e o solado bem aderente em pisos mistos. Já escorreguei algumas vezes com ele em pisos mais técnicos, mas os pontos positivos superam muito os negativos. Gostaria que o visual fosse um pouco mais legal e moderno e por isso tiro uma estrela. Acho que a estética pode melhorar.

Too big

Fantastyczne buty do chodzenia po Tatrach na kamienie, skały i pod górę. Ubrałam je prosto z pudełka i poszłam na szlak górski i nic mnie nie otarły. Szerokie i wygodne dla palców. Mam haluks na 1 stopie. Bardzo wygodne i bezpieczne, nie ślizgają się na mokrych kamieniach. Mimo że to model męski pasują bardzo dobrze i na kobietę. Noszę rozmiar 41 a buty wzięłam w 42 i były dobre. Trzeba brać o 1 rozmiar większy. Kolor khaki bardzo ładny z pomarańczowymi akcentami. Buty lekkie jak piórko. Jeszcze nigdy nie miałam tak wygodnych butów treningowych.

Alles wunderbar wirklich mit Abstand der beste Schuhe den ich bisher hatte nur beginnt nach 100km sich an manchen Stellen der Schuh auszulösen. Also ca. 25 km eingelaufen. Dann 3 Tage 75km Trekkingtour. Danach die Schuhe Sauber gemacht und gesehen das sich das Fußbett sowie der Stoff an der Hacke beginnt aufzulösen. Perfekt. Nun hab ich einen Schuh gefunden bei den alles super ist nur kann man den maximal ein Jahr tragen wenn man öfter Wandern geht. Eher suboptimal wenn man dazu den hohen Preis bedenkt.

Vorab: Ich nutze die Schuhe zum Trekking (25-30 km Tagesetappen) und zum Wandern, nicht zum Trailrunning. Die Altra Men's Lone Peak 8 überzeugen vor allem durch ihren hohen Tragekomfort und die geräumige Zehenbox, die für eine natürliche Fußstellung sorgt. Besonders auf längeren Strecken bieten sie den Zehen ausreichend Platz, was Blasen und Druckstellen vorbeugt. Wer Wert auf eine bequeme Passform legt, wird mit diesen Schuhen definitiv zufrieden sein. Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die robuste Verarbeitung. Die Schuhe wirken strapazierfähig und bieten dank der griffigen Sohle auf unterschiedlichem Gelände guten Halt, sei es auf Trails, steinigen Pfaden oder matschigen Abschnitten. Für Trailrunner und Wanderer sind die Lone Peak 8 somit eine verlässliche Wahl, wenn es um Stabilität und Langlebigkeit geht. Allerdings hätte ich etwas mehr Dämpfung erwartet. Während die Schuhe eine solide Bodenhaftung und Schutz vor spitzen Steinen bieten, fehlt es ihnen an der weichen Federung, die bei langen Märschen oder auf hartem Untergrund den Komfort erhöhen könnte. Wer also eine weichere Dämpfung bevorzugt, könnte diese als etwas zu gering empfinden. Insgesamt sind die Altra Men's Lone Peak 8 bequeme, robuste Schuhe, die vor allem durch ihre Passform und Stabilität überzeugen, auch wenn in puncto Dämpfung Luft nach oben bleibt.
