Altra Women's Lone Peak 4.5 Shoe

I used to endure hiking so that I could get views, solitude, and nature. I've lost every toenail at least 3 times, and tried everything from moleskin to tree sap to stop my nasty, painful blisters. This is my 5th pair of Altra Lone Peak trail runners. I have worn each pair for hundreds of miles and until they were falling apart. Ever since switching from boots and other trail shoes to the lone peaks, I now also enjoy the hike. I still kick a rock or forget to trim my toenails sometimes, but losing my toenails isn't normal to me anymore (thankfully) and I rarely get a blister even after 80 miles and rocky climbs. They keep improving, and I'm so glad they fixed the toe cap issue (they used to separate after the first 40 or so miles) and I love the new fabrics, they are a lot more durable. I just put my first miles on these after a busy Summer put an end to my last pair.
