GURU TIP: StoneGuard™ for underfoot protection!
TECH TIP: Introducing the king (or queen) of the trails, guard of stones, 9th of its name... the Altra Lone Peak 9+ GTX! The Lone Peak continues to reign supreme thanks to the lighter Altra EGO™ foam and a StoneGuard™ for underfoot protection while maintaining ground feel. Never lose footing thanks to the Vibram® Megagrip outsole with increased durability and supreme grip. A GORE-TEX® Invisible Fit lined upper and Roomy Toe Box allow you to move freely while staying dry. No matter if you're a trail running loyalist or a weekend hiker, you'll love what the Altra Lone Peak 9+ GTX has to offer!
WHAT MAKES IT A "+"? The 9+ is the Lone Peak 9 you know with one big upgrade: a full Vibram® Megagrip outsole in place of the standard MaxTrac™ rubber. Same fit, same 25mm of cushion, same zero drop, with more bite on wet rock, roots, muddy singletrack and slick limestone.
BUY THIS SHOE IF... you're looking for something agile and rugged that keeps your feet dry.
DON'T BUY THIS SHOE IF... you're running the streets or mostly running in summer heat.
Is the Altra Lone Peak 9+ zero drop?
Yes. The Lone Peak 9+ has a 0mm heel-to-toe drop and 25mm of cushion, so your heel and forefoot sit level like they would barefoot. If you're coming from a traditional 8 to 12mm drop shoe, ease in with shorter runs and hikes for the first few weeks.
Is the Lone Peak 9+ GTX waterproof?
Yes. It uses a GORE-TEX® Invisible Fit membrane that keeps rain, puddles, dew and slush out. Like any waterproof shoe it runs warmer than the mesh version, so it shines in fall, winter and wet spring conditions.
Lone Peak 9 GTX vs Lone Peak 9+ GTX: what's the difference?
Both use GORE-TEX®. The 9+ GTX adds a Vibram® Megagrip outsole for better wet-surface grip, while the 9 GTX uses Altra's MaxTrac™ rubber.
Is it good for winter running in Kansas City?
It's one of our favorite picks for cold, sloppy KC mornings: slushy trails, wet leaves and snowmelt. Pair it with merino socks and you're set.
