"These shoes are perfect for trails, hiking, or just getting caught out in the wilderness. I wanted some new hiking shoes that were lighter than by boots and still have support, ankle stability and water resistant. I had brought these shoes on my trip to Utah and they required zero breaking in. I actually wore these shoes even when I wasn’t hiking they were that comfortable. I hiked Bryce, Zion, Arches, lower antelope canyon and trails all around Utah and I was impressed."

Loved these boots! They were wide toe box shoes as advertised, and comfortable out of the box (wouldn’t need much of a break/in). Though the day after I ordered on Amazon, I saw the manufacturer had them on sale at almost half the price I was paying from Amazon. So I returned these after just trying one shoe on, and ordered direct. These are very supportive in ankle and footbed. I recommend these shoes, just not at the price that was on Amazon.marnie

I got a pair of the dark purple ones from REI, but they didn’t have this grey/black/turquoise color in the store. So when I saw them on Amazon, I had to get them. I love these so much. They’re so lightweight, you feel like you’re not wearing shoes. Ankle support is a must for me. I like the wide toe box, and the fact that there’s not all that much cushioning in the shoe, so you feel like you’re getting a more natural workout. I wore these in the rain in the Smoky Mountains, and they have good traction as well as waterproofing. As with all hiking shoes, I recommend getting a size larger than what you’d wear in normal shoes.lin

This is the second pair of Altra I have bought recently, one low and one mid waterproof. I can't say enough good things about them. They have been completely comfortable right out of the box no break in time needed. Usually I take a wide in shoes, not needed with this style of Altra. My toes can spread out. The sole grip is outstanding. For a lightweight shoe the support is excellent. So far they have been waterproof although I have not done a lot of hiking in the rain. I have a high arch and instep and I am finding the laces, particularly on the mid shoe could stand to be an inch or two longer. There is not a lot of lace to tie a full bow. I wish I had discovered Altra sooner.jessica lynn

Accurate sizing, accurate color. Way more comfortable than La Sportiva boots.

Great hiking boots. Used it to backpack through Yosemite and made it up half dome!
