Altra  Timp 6 Mid GTX Hiking Boots - Women's

After 2 weeks and several 4-6 mile hikes, I can recommend these shoes. They provide the ankle support I need (I usually hike in Lowa Boots) and the toe box room. They are lightweight and supposedly water resistant. I've never found Altra shoes to be waterproof but they do provide some semblance of water resistance. I've worn Altra's for many years now and like their fit. No blisters or rub points.

Best I’ve ever had! Lightweight, comfortable from moment one, and the bottoms are sticky! I just climbed Royal Arch, a trail with a steep incline and a lot of loose scree, and didn't slide once. I’ve hiked it in two other pairs of boots, and had to brace myself with each step and take it really slow. My feet are so happy!

Excellent foot bed and flexibility in the upper foot while still being secure. If you’re used to A LOT of cushion it will be a change, but it a great starter boot for someone looking to go towards more of the barefoot feel. This shoe has helped me retain stability on ice in a surprising way. 11/10

Good quality. Perfect for a wider, flat foot or someone who needs a wide toe-box. Water resistant, but not water proof. Decent ankle support. Good cushion under-foot. Lightweight & more of a hybrid with a trail running shoe. But the sides rub against my bunions and cause blisters which doesn’t happen in other shoes.

Very comfortable and breathable. The wide toe box is great! I struggle finding shoes wide enough for my feet, and these fit perfect.

Really like these hiking boots. They fit better than the lone peak since I have a little narrower feet. I’m normally a 7.5 in most shoes, but usually size up to 8 for hiking shoes. I didn’t have to do that with these and the 7.5 fits great. The only weird thing is the final lace loop around the ankle isn’t a normal loop that easily wraps around. You have to pull the laces through the hole which is strange and I don’t like that since it’s kind of useless the way they designed it.

The grip on these boots is insane! I wore these for all stages of the Peaks of the Balkans. There were definitely muddy and slippery spots on parts of the trails, however no falls! The only reason why I did not give these boots 5 stars is due to the funky smell that accrued inside. I wore wool socks during the trek and also air dried the boots if there was any moisture. I still got the “dirty/wet sock” smell. I have had Merrells and Dolomites in the past and did not experience this. Needless to say, I highly recommend these boots for stability and traction!

These hiking boots are so comfortable! I only wear wide toe box shoes and these are the first boots I’ve tried that have a bit more support yet the great space in toe box without too much width in ankle- color choices are awful but I got the pinkish beige ones and received compliments on the trail- I usually wear a size 10 and I got these in the same size- shoes are very soft and easy to put on- love these!

I bought these recently and finally getting them out and about. I haven’t yet taken them to rough terrain, but the weather has turned cool and rainy in CO and they’ve been great - warm, dry, walking miles, zero break-in and they are so comfortable I hardly want to take them off. I look forward to putting them through the paces on the trail through the summer. Yikes on choosing my age range in this review!

I have a history of feet problems my feet distort the shoe in no time at all, ALTRA has been my best choice
