OUR BRAND
Altra Running was founded on an innovative approach to running shoes. An approach that took us from the back room of a specialty running store to the front of the pack on roads and trails across the world. With innovation at our forefront, our founders created our first shoe with the help of a toaster oven. This was the start of our signature shoe construction to help you move naturally and has kept our brand going for a decade while aiming to keep you running for a lifetime.
OUR PURPOSE
Unleashing human potential by inspiring the world to move naturally is what Altra Running is all about. Our purpose is built around discovery, joy, responsibility, natural movement, and finding your potential.
OUR INNOVATION
Our wide-lacing system inspired our signature FootShape design to encourage natural movement. While a household toaster oven inspired our founders, FootShape and Balanced Cushioning has inspired thousands of people to unleash their human potential. That’s the foundation of Altra Running: innovative, disruptive thinking.

Best running shoes I’ve owned. These are exactly what I was looking for - zero drop and wide toe box. Super comfortable.

I recently upgraded to the ALTRA Men's Lone Peak 8 Trail Running Shoes, and they’ve quickly become my go-to pair for hitting the trails. One of the standout features is the exceptionally wide toe box. This design allows my toes to splay naturally, providing enhanced balance and reducing pressure during long runs. It’s a small detail that makes a huge difference in overall comfort, especially on uneven terrain.Another major plus is how lightweight these shoes are. The minimal weight helps me maintain speed and agility without feeling bogged down, which is essential for those fast-paced trail runs. Despite their light feel, they still offer robust support and protection, making them ideal for both rugged trails and everyday runs.Overall, the Lone Peak 8 delivers on every level—comfort, performance, and durability. Whether you're a seasoned trail runner or just getting started, these shoes are a fantastic investment for an improved running experience. Highly recommended!

Very comfortable. A little wide for my standard size width but the extra room in the toe box is amazing. Highly recommended

These are the greatest athletic shoes; they are worth every penny. I suffer with plantar fasciitis, and these shoes have given me a lot more comfort than any other pair I own. They are very durable, lightweight , and the toe box is nice and wide. Order the yellow color if you want compliments.

Hands down the most comfortable shoes I've blever owned. It's funny because when the package arrived, I thought someone stole them, and just shipped me an empty box, that's how lightweight these are. Plus the wide toe box is incredible. 10 out of 10!

I picked up running 2.5 years ago and ever since I put on a pair of Altra shoes I have not been able to use any other. Their trail shoes are durable, last 150-200 miles, and end up being great 'walking shoes' after their running useful life. Your toes and feet will thank you for making the change to a larger toe box and zero drop!

Just did my first 4.5 miles treadmill walking in these. Bought them to free up my older Lone Peak 4s for trail walking. The older ones are worn but still useable.First off they at 2 oz lower weight which might seem trivial but that is a 10% weight reduction. The LP 8s are 1lb 4oz the old 4s are 1lb 6oz. The ultralighters will like that. My only concern is how was that weight saved? The rock protection is still there according to marketing but it's no longer advertised as a "rock plate" so maybe they got some savings there??Anyway, that big beautiful toebox is still there as is the zero rise. The shoes were extremely comfortable right out of the box. Zero hotspots after first 4.5 miles in them while wearing "Darn Tough" socks.The shoes have obviously been redesigned but much of it is superficial, I do not see any major tweaks to sole, uppers, etc. The rock protection is a question mark but won't be able to evaluate that until I get on trail at some point. Decent rock protection is critical for trail hiking IMO so I assume it is properly implemented in these shoes.Anyway, no shoe is perfect, so four stars. Will update after first couple of hundred miles.

初登山で、これを購入。店舗で買おうと思ったのですが、サイズが無くても、通販で買う事にしました。霧雨が少し降った程度でしたが、滑らないし良かった。間違いなかったです。初だったので、この色が目立つし良いと思ったのですが、思いのほか汚れる。。なので、色は気にしなくても良かったかな。扁平足なので、幅もあるし、履き心地も良いし、とても軽くて、大正解です。

He tenido el modelo anterior y estas prácticamente son igual de cómodas. La mejor zapatilla que he tenido.El único punto débil es la tela lateral de las punteras, que en el modelo anterior se me rompieron pronto.

These are great hiking shoes and I use them when landscaping around the yard. Helps minimize my Morton's neuroma numbness and pain since it has a large toe box. True to size fit. Nothing bad about the lone Peak 8 shoe model. The only thing that's bad about the company (Altra) is they run out of shoes fast (especially my size 14). I learned my lesson with the Escalante 4's (also a great shoe model) when I bought them to try them out and then loved them... but when I went back to purchase another pair the Escalante's they were all out of my size. So what did I do when I read the favorable views on the Lone Peak 8? I bought 2 pairs in my size without waiting to try them out. Once again, great comfort with that larger toe box for my aging 45 year feet. I only wish I had ordered a third pair to get me through the year before the lone peak 9's come out since I'm pretty rough with the wear and tear I put on my shoes (and body for that matter)... when I went back online to order them a couple months later, they were sold out in my size... again, lol!If you haven't looked at trying Altra, I'd give them a chance and make a run at them.... pun intended. They're great for folks on their feet all day like folks working in a hospitality/restaurant job, hospital, packaging/parcel job, etc.... and off course running, walking and hiking.
