Altra Lone Peak 9+ Men's – The Legendary Trail Shoe, Now with More Grip

The Altra Lone Peak 9+ Men's builds on one of the most iconic trail running shoes ever created. Trusted by trail runners, thru-hikers, ultramarathon athletes, and outdoor adventurers around the world, the latest version introduces a significant upgrade with Vibram® Megagrip, delivering even greater confidence on wet rocks, loose gravel, muddy trails, and technical terrain.

Designed to move naturally across every type of trail, the Lone Peak 9+ combines Altra's signature Zero Drop™ platform, Standard FootShape™ Fit, and responsive Altra EGO™ midsole to create a stable, comfortable ride that performs equally well on long trail runs, multi-day hikes, and everyday adventures.

Whether you're running your local singletrack, hiking the Bibbulmun Track, or tackling your next ultra-distance event, the Lone Peak 9+ offers the versatility, comfort, and durability to keep you moving further.

Natural Movement Meets Trail Performance

The Altra EGO™ midsole provides moderate cushioning with an ideal balance of comfort, responsiveness, and ground feel. It cushions long days on your feet while maintaining the flexibility and trail feedback that Lone Peak fans love.

The Zero Drop™ platform places your heel and forefoot at the same height, encouraging natural posture and efficient movement while promoting a stable foot strike across uneven terrain.

Combined with Altra's renowned FootShape™ toe box, your toes have room to spread naturally, improving balance, stability, and long-distance comfort on technical trails.

New Vibram® Megagrip Outsole

The biggest update to the Lone Peak 9+ is the addition of a Vibram® Megagrip outsole, replacing the previous MaxTrac outsole.

This premium rubber compound provides:

• Outstanding grip on wet and dry rock
• Greater confidence on loose gravel and muddy trails
• Improved durability for high-mileage adventures
• Reliable traction across technical mountain terrain

Whether you're climbing steep fire trails, navigating rocky ridgelines, or descending loose terrain, the Lone Peak 9+ delivers exceptional confidence underfoot.

Built for Long Days Outdoors

The durable engineered mesh upper offers breathable comfort while standing up to the demands of rugged trails. Integrated GaiterTrap™ attachment points make it easy to add compatible trail gaiters, helping keep dirt, sand, and debris out of your shoes during long adventures.

Lightweight, comfortable, and built for countless kilometres, the Lone Peak 9+ remains one of the most versatile shoes in the trail running world.

Wide Fit Available

For runners and hikers who need additional room through the forefoot and midfoot, the Lone Peak 9+ is also available in a Wide model.

The Wide version retains all the same performance features—including the Vibram® Megagrip outsole, Altra EGO™ midsole, Zero Drop™ platform, and GaiterTrap™ compatibility—but offers additional width through the midfoot and forefoot.

The Wide model is ideal for:

• Naturally wider feet
• Runners who experience pressure across the forefoot
• Hikers carrying heavier packs
• Ultra-distance runners whose feet swell over long distances
• Anyone wanting extra comfort without increasing shoe length

Importantly, the Wide version is wider—not longer—allowing you to enjoy extra space while maintaining the same secure heel fit and natural running experience.
