Altra Lone Peak 4.0 Low Waterproof Women's Trail Running Shoes
With fresh updates to its predecessor, the Altra Lone Peak 4.0 Low Waterproof Trail Running Shoes provides durable support and comfort to the feet, an ideal companion for the challenging trails you take on.
Mesh Upper
An update on previous versions, the mesh used on the upper part of the shoe is not only more breathable, but it has improved durability and security. The Footshape toe box allows your toes to spread out more naturally, offering greater comfort and stability in uphill climbs and downhill descents. Thicker material coverage and support is offered to the toes and the heel, protecting it from bumps and downward forces. The upper is waterproof, stopping any liquid from entering the shoe and causing discomfort. The laces run up the foot, and a padded tongue mean that you will always be able to find a comfortable fit. Heel loops make transporting muddy shoes indoors is quick and easy. A four-point Gaitertrap is a hook and loop tab that allows you to attach a strapless gaiter, which would prevent debris and grit from entering and causing irritation.
A-Bound Midsole
The EVA midsole contains many areas with features that provide the shoe with extremely responsive rebound and cushioning, as well as the standard EVA that also protects and rebounds. A-Bound, and energy-return compound sits directly underneath the foot, which reduces ground impact, returning the energy as a spring for each step that you take. The feet sit on the midsole on a zero drop platform. This means the heel and the forefoot are the same distance from the ground, encouraging proper low-impact form throughout your trail run. With Altra's Fit4Her, the shoe has a customised and tailored feeling under the foot any unique foot shape. Found inbetween the A-Bound and the EVA midsole, there is Altra's Stoneguard. This is a shield that offers flexible protection by deflecting rocks into the midsole, making the ride feel smoother and more stable.
Maxtrac Outsole
Staying in complete control is crucial on the trails. With the Maxtrac outsole, you can run with the confidence that you will not be let down by not having traction. The durable rubber has the provides the perfect combination of grip and traction, making volatile surfaces incredibly easy to defeat. The Trailclaw lugs underneath are positioned strategically beneath the metatarsals, making toe-offs and sudden bursts count more.
