ALTRA Men's Lone Peak 8 Wide AL0A85P3 Trail Running

I bought these for everyday walking so I can't really assess them as trail running shoes. The main draw for me is the wide toebox. If you're not familiar with Altra you'll find that they have a little bit of a Donald Duck look to them because of this but you'll get used to it and no-one rolls around laughing. I have a bunion due to decades wearing cramped, cheap shoes and I wish I'd been wearing these all that time. Barefoot/minimalist purists may not like them as they have some cushioning and a bit of roll in the step but they are so, so comfortable. I had a pair from the same brand previously and wore them until the soles fell off. When that happened, I had to make do with a pair of cheap(-ish) walking shoes from Decathlon; the difference is like night and day. I hadn't realised quite how uncomfortable walking had become until I started with these.I chose the blue/black colour and it's as restrained as I hoped. The shoes look fairly smart at the moment though I expect they'll get mashed in the countryside.I hope and expect them to last well as the cost is not insignificant. My previous pair were only binned because of the soles: the uppers remained pretty much intact even after a number of years.Very happy with purchase and would buy again.EDIT: 3 months in and I have a small hole in the upper in the right foot above where the big toe sits. A little disappointing; the material is quite flimsy, it appears. Ideally, I suppose, the toe should sit under the reinforced toe of the shoe but, given the difference in foot size, these are the best fit for me. Nevermind: I've patched the hole inside with Gorilla tape to stop it getting bigger. It doesn't substantively change my opinion as most of my footwear ends up as much hole as shoe.

Very good product, expensive.

Perfect fit for my wide feet.
