Rated 4 out of 5
Great boots but a bit too wide for me
I love Altra running shoes and thought I would love the hikers but they are a little too roomy resulting in too much foot movement inside the shoe

Fiona S. Donna S. Rated 5 out of 5Fantastic boot!
These have a layer of cushion I haven’t had in altar before, perfect for hiking! The image doesn’t do it justice, the body is almost greyish purple, quite lovely. Needs a bit of gradual break in as the padding will pack in a wee bit. True to size.
ken k. Rated 5 out of 5most comfortable hiker ever
fits just like the trail runner version. Light and comfy.
Stephanie P. Rated 4 out of 5Room for toes
Although the toe box would ideally be a bit wider, it is better than any other supportive hiking boot I have worn. I bought these for a trek that will have me carrying a heavy pack, and the extra support compared to trail shoes is welcome, but with the shoe still being lightweight. It is too soon to comment on the durability of the shoes or the comfort for all-day hiking.
Shawna W. Rated 5 out of 5The perfect lightweight hiker
Very roomy toe box, exceptional waterproof ability (full dunk underwater with tied-up boot and remain dry), extremely lightweight, very grippy treads (watch as I stay stuck to rock faces/ slippery logs, while my fellow hikers slide off), firm but flexible ankle, great for more technical hikes but so comfortable I wear them on easy day hikes too… I could go on. Literally the best hiker out there, above Keen, Merrell, Topo… I’ve tried them all. One minor drawback is that the comfortable and stable lightweight foam outer sole will eventually fry a bit when in contact with rocks, etc. , on technical hikes… But I won’t remove a star for that, this doesn’t impact performance and they are just too darn good. I’ve converted several friends onto these hikers, they’re the real deal. I like the available colourways as well. Maybe someday they will have as many colour options in the mid as they do in the low hiker. They are true to size, but allow for thicker socks, foot swelling on long hikes… It might take some ppl time to get used to the roominess of the boot (if you’re like most people intend to suffocate your feet inside shoes that are too small for your feet…) but once you get used these, you’ll never go back. I have wide feet and I’m always on the hunt for something that will allow true natural foot movement and to play while hiking, great for these individuals too.
Janelle B. Rated 5 out of 5Really happy with these hikers.
Really happy with these hikers. New to the brand, but would recommend to anyone.
Évelyne P. Rated 5 out of 5Pas les plus jolies, mais
Pas les plus jolies, mais franchement très confortables. J'ai choisi cette marque pour l'espace très large pour les orteils parce que j'ai des oignons.
nicole h. Rated 1 out of 5Too restrictive of leg movement
I have the via Olympus 1, and I absolutely love them. The updates to the Olympus that make the base wider and more “stable” are too restrictive of movement. My knees and hips end up hurting, and I feel super uncomfortable trying to walk in them. So disappointing!
Darlene K. Rated 5 out of 5Altra Olympus 6 GTX mid hiking boots
Excellent! The boots are exactly as described. The hiking boots are light weight. Cushioned, support in the wide toe box. They have excellent grip. I have been wearing the boots around my house for the past month, with wool socks-they are still awesome so I cannot wait to get out on the hiking trails.
Wynona M. Rated 5 out of 5Love my Altras
These hiking boots are fantastic. I have the running shoe version as well and these are a great mid-rise option for ankle support. Sticky soles so I have great traction, comfy, supportive, and the foot shaped sole that Altra is known for. I did size up 1/2 size as the waterproof version runs slightly tighter.
