Sizing Notes
Altra’s unique FootShape™ toe box and zero to low shoes are built to place your foot in a natural position, with a stable and confident foundation to run on. When fitting, be sure to allow a full thumb’s width in front of your toes. If your feet are used to cramped toe boxes, Altra shoes may feel a little big at first. Give your toes some time to get used to the newfound wiggle room.
Altra offers a range of FootShape fits:
Original Fit: The fit that started it all, Original is the roomiest of the 3 options from Altra.
Standard Fit: The most common fit from Altra is right in the middle of Original and Slim.
Slim Fit: The slimmest-fitting Altra option still allows room for your toes to spread out naturally.
IS THIS SHOE TRUE TO SIZE? The product Features above will provide a suggestion if Altra advises you to size up or down in this particular shoe. If no such note exists, please order your regular size.

Best Barefoot 4 Season Boots
Yes , I recommend this product
I was looking for a barefoot style, lightweight, waterproof mid boot and these fit all my requirements on paper, so I decided to get them. I have Altra Torin 8 running shoes and I really like the feel of their barefoot style shoes so I was excited to try these. I've put a few miles on them now, and so far they are great. They fit nice, I didn't get any hot spots on my feet, and the signature Altra toebox design was very comfortable for my feet. The trails I did were not extremely technical, but there was a lot of mud, wet leaves, slippery rock, and loose gravel, and nothing seemed to phase these boots. I was surprised by how grippy they were. My feet stayed dry the whole time, though I never tried fully submerging them in water. Since the boots are pretty lightweight, I would recommend good wool boot socks to keep your feet warm. The ankle support is a bit stiff, so if you're not used to mid rise boots, the socks will help pad that area. I didn't have any discomfort even after a 6 hour hike with some merino wool socks. These boots have the Altra EGO Max midsole, which is provides a good cushion for long hikes. They are still zero drop barefoot style shoes, so if you're not used to wearing shoes like that, I would not jump right into these. That being said, these boots might be the best barefoot style 4 season boot out there. Makes sense that they are an REI exclusive!

10/10 4 season shoe
Yes , I recommend this product
Recently bought this product on a whim for a yosemite trip. Boots held up very well and my feet stayed dry even in snow. I sized up .5 like i do with my altra running shoes and these fit perfect even with thick wool socks.

Ankle Discomfort!
No, I do not recommend this product
I’ve been hiking in Altras (shoes and mids) for many years. Why, Altra? Why do these have strange uncomfortable stiffness around the ankles? To echo other people’s reviews for other iterations: did anyone try these??
