Customer Reviews
My feet love altras. I can hike all day for weeks without foot pain or blisters. Unfortunately altras no longer last for weeks if you hike all day. Getting 250 kilometers out of a pair of shoes just isn’t enough. Older models used to get me a solid 6-700 kilometers. The Olympus 5s have not made it 300 without the uppers disconnecting all together. Will I stick with them? Probably. I haven’t found other shoes as comfortable. Do I hope that 6’s come out and are not as terribly built, yes
Hands down the best all round trail shoe I've ever tried.
I wear these every year for the Tarawera 100 miler, they are superb shoes
Titanium Tom, model 55
Beautifully designed shoe, comfort to spare, Inijin socks go great and are an added extra to foot comfort. This all in the first few days of use. EXTRA!!! I've been out of action since a large ring of firewood dropped onto my lower left calf muscle, having treatment for damage to nerves radiating pain into my lower left achilles aaaAAAGHU!!! Definetitly not shoes fault. Bring on recovery.
It's one thing to do some research on a product, albeit mostly online, to find glowing reviews/accounts around the Altra Olympus, and quite another to actually feel them on. For me, they are phenomenal.
When I first put them on the pitch of the sole, across the ball of the foot, seemed to project movement/me forward rather than resisting movement. The support and cushioning, just that. The technical, design stuff I'd leave to real athletes and experts, but any great product, or anything else for that matter, is in the details and the littlest thing like the laces, which grip like your life depended on it, for me is huge because, although I'm not athletic and not doing all-terrain running, I am doing a 1200km walk/pilgrimage and the last thing I want to do with a pack, (a great Aarn pack), on my back, is stop and tie up my shoe laces.
In a weird way both these shoes and the Aarn pack give me confidence and reassurance, I don't have to worry about them, think about them.
In the loaded pack on walking I've been doing over the last month, I haven't had a single foot related issue, no discomfort, no blisters nothing, oh apart from the want to go further.
