About this deal
The comparable Altra Superior 5, which narrowly edged out this shoe as our top choice for a zero-drop model, is worth considering.
The Altra Lone Peak 6 Men’s Trail Shoe is ready for any terrain and has been built with a balanced cushioning platform that puts your heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground to promote a lower impact on your run. It’s very important to know your running gait so that we can advise and fit the correct shoes according to your own individual requirements.I’ve never felt so comfortable in trainers and Dave was helpful and patient in getting the right ones.
If you like the sensitivity of these shoes but are looking for a bit more protection and traction, check out the award-winning Salomon S/Lab Ultra 3. Altra shoes balance the sensitivity and weight of a minimalist shoe with the comfort and protection of a trail runner. This shoe now tips the scales at just under 20 ounces per pair, an impressive feat considering the thickness of the midsole.Interessanterweise stinken sie auch nicht so extrem übel, wie "normale" Wanderschuhe, bei denen man nach einer Woche dann doch lieber zum Bunsenbrenner, als zum Deo greift. While we're willing to sacrifice some level of comfort to build our foot strength, these shoes flat out don't provide the padding or support most folks need to tackle long trail runs.
