Mont Blanc

The upper fits me like a glove, there are no unneccessary stiff overlays in the toebox which prevents me from getting blisters on long runs. The midsole has just the right density and thickness and feels super comfortable. The vibram outsole is really sticky and the lugs are the perfect depth not to cause pressure in my forefoot. The heel material sticks to my foot like glue and I'm not sliding around at all when I have the tension of the laces just right. They are nimble and flexible on uneven ground, roots and rocks and I feel super secure going up and down hills. It would be nice if the tongue was a little longer and more padded, the heel could also use padding all the way up, but those are minor concerns. I love these shoes. In my opinion the best shoes Altra ever made.

I have always been a Keen boot lover, but no more. It became more difficult to get them to fit my feet in a comfortable manner. They also started to give me hip problems when I walked in them. I found a pair of Altra running shoes at the local outdoors retail store, which fit wonderful! So I started researching them and found these online. My feet are happy again! The almost square toe box is just what my feet need and no more hip pain! The sole is very comfy and the vibram tread is great traction. I feel like I’m not even wearing them because they are so light compared to my Keen boots. I’ll be buying more!

Very happy with the shoe quality and fit. Nice sole grip and light for an Altra shoe. Took a few hours to get used to and after that love them.

I like the shoe but the heel is not firm enough for my liking. It’s a little hard to describe but there is padding to try and secure it to the heel of your foot. It just feels weird. Maybe I just need to get used to it. Otherwise I like the shoe. It’s fairly comfortable and good cushion but not squishy. Very grippy outer sole.

After two years, these remain my favorite style of ALTRAs and I'm already on my second pair. The width is perfect for me and I love how they hug your feet without feeling oppressively tight. Typically, with a slighter wider foot, you'll often end up with a little more toe space than necessary, but the Mont Blancs are as perfect a fit as I've found. I'm not a runner but do spend a good deal of time on my feet and the MBs close sizing, light weight, and good cushion always make me feel a step faster. As other users have mentioned, the Vibram soles do tend to be a squeaky on smooth surfaces; but they are also significantly more durable than ALTRA's MaxTrac outsoles, which I practically wore through on my Lone Peaks. I'll gladly deal with a little gym sound to keep my favourite sneaks intact a bit longer. I could also stand a few more (less electric) colorways in this line. But the one absolute annoyance are the bloody round laces, which will come untied about 8x a day unless you double knot — itself a minor difficultly, as they don't have much extra length. The small lace loops also make replacing them with flat or oval laces difficult. As this is my second pair, I fitted them out-of-the-box with a pair of tieless elastic laces and they were an absolutely dynamo addition. Somehow made the shoes even more comfortable than before. Liked them so much, I even put a pair on my old ones.

Top of toe box liner was loose on my left foot. So it made my toes hurt. The tongue wasn’t long enough. When they call it a minimal shoe they were not kidding. They are very light but cheaply made. They are my first and last pair of Altra shoes.

I really like the style comfort of these shoes. They fit as expected. I have been using them for general wear and hiking . They do very well, gripping on rocks and making me feel secure on the trail. There are two issues that have me very disappointed. The biggest issue is that the shoes squeak constantly. It’s not a quiet squeak. It’s very noisy. It’s hard to be out on the trail trying to enjoy nature when your shoes squeak every time you move. I was walking down the hall and everyone turned to look at me because my shoes were so noisy. The other issue, considerably less important is the very thin tongue that makes it hard to put the shoes on. In order to get the tongue in the proper position, I have to untie and loosen the laces and dig out the tongue. I gave them two stars because of the squeaking noise.

Where can you find this very same shoe to purchase again. They are comfortable to wear daily when working 12 hour shift. Please help find this shoe, love to colors on it as well.

They fit bigger then expected

Producto manchado y con restos en la suela, para su precio esperaba que llegara en mejores condiciones.

Gran producto hecho para un pie grueso

Bin, wie eigentlich immer bei Altra, mit den Schuhen super zufrieden, schön viel Platz beim Vorderfuß.
