AltraMen's Olympus 5 Sneaker

I have wide feet and a bunion from wearing tight shoes. This is the only shoe I can find with a wide toe box that still has lots of padding and support in the sole. Fits well for running, but is now my every day shoe.

Already own Altra Lone Peak 6 which I found a little lightweight. The Olympus 5 is much better for my needs. Use for hiking and not running. Has a vibram sole which some dont like but I find ideal. On another buyers advice I added a superfeet insole for added arch support and I have found the perfect shoe for me. Worked out a little expensive but if it gets you what you need!! Comfortable straight from the box. Not waterproof but dry quickly. Only remains to see how they last under prolonged use.Beware ..Once you get used to a wide toe box shoe like the Altra range you cant go back to standard fitting shoes. I have a pair of Hoka which I cant use anymore.

I have just returned from walking more than 600 miles on the Camino Frances and the Camino Ingles.The Olympus 5s are much more durable than the 4s.I had to replace the insoles after more than 500 miles as they were done.I had no blisters or any other issues.I wore toe socks and thin hiking socks.I have used Altras for several years and these are by far the best so far.My only gripe is that the laces are too short and also come untied too easily.

Definitely one of the best (the best?) fitting, most comfortable shoes to ever grace my wide feet.The above said- that’s of little use if I cannot wear them because they are falling apart from light street walking use! I do not think I have actually used these shoes on a trail yet, god only knows how people ‘baby’ these treads on trail! From very light use I have severe scuffing and rubbing of the uppers, the side foam is deteriorating excessively and the vibram undersole pieces are ‘peeling’ from the footbed - just not good enough!I will track this product for future consideration purely because of the fit and comfort- but I will never buy unless I read plenty of reviews stating that they have resolved the durability issue and I take a punt in a sale…A ‘collab’ with someone like Scarpa (who know how to build footwear) would be the way forward.

Thumbs up 👍

An excellent running shoe!! Very comfortable and hardwearing!!

A great improvement on the Altra Olympus 4. Stronger and more robust construction. I use these for long distance hiking and they work great for me. I did get some better Superfeet insoles as the ones they come with are kind of thin. Overall a great hiking shoe. I did go up half a size as suggested by other reviewers and they fit well.

Not in original box

Great sneakers My husband loves the side width front! He uses these for hiking, trail running birding all kinds of long walking activity and he said these are the most comfortable sneakers he has ever owned!

I'll admit I don't trail run with these, but I've found that trail running shoes have the ideal mix of comfort and support for my feet, so I use these as daily shoes.I discovered Altra's through their Lone Peaks, and loved the wider toe boxes, as I have flat feet and like to have more toe splay. Tried the Olympus run model and liked the cushioning setup but didn't find as much support. Olympus hikes are beefy and overkill for daily wear, so all that was left was the trail model.These are perfect for my usage. They have great support, cushioning, grip, and are way lighter than the hike models. I prefer to tie laces loosely and just slip my foot in, and the elongated rear loop makes than much easier. The tongue is thin and lightweight so there's not too much pressure on top of the foot, but is soft enough that it doesn't dig into my ankle.I got these at a great price, but unfortunately they're too pricey to replace all my shoes with these, which would be my ideal situation.
