Customer Reviews Altra Lone Peak All-Wthr Mid 2

I've worn lone peaks across Patagonia, through the Dolomites and even for the entirety of the John Muir Trail. They've been my absolute favorite show due to the wide toe box. Over the years Altras have continued to get narrower and narrower. I can't even wear the newest model if I go up 2 sizes. I'm bummed they've made such drastic changes to a shoe that got such a positive following amongst backpackers in its early iterations.

I purchased these last year and was not impressed. The hooks at the top ankle section where the laces go through are open unlike the earlier versions that are closed. My laces from one shoe kept catching on the hook from the opposite shoe and tripping me on trail. I must have tripped because of that at least 3 times last summer and once gave me a black eye when I fell. Please go back to the closed loops.

This is my third pair of Altras and it's a fail. They're much smaller than my previous lone peaks. The toe box pinches and I have bruised my toenails. Size up.

I have worn several pairs of low-rise Altras for hiking over the years, but these are my first boots. After only a few times wearing them on sidewalks and relatively well-groomed trails, I notice tears in the uppers on both left and right shoes. My other Altras have never shown this wear, even after many times hiking on the same trails. I'm so disappointed! I expected better durability from these Altra boots.

A black upper for an all-weather trail shoe is FANTASTIC. The while sole is useless. Why did Altra ruin one of the best shoes they offer? Please bring back the black upper/black sole Lone Peak All-Weather Mid.
