I'm running in Altra GTX with gators this winter. No waterproof shoes are not perfect but they are the best I've found for running in the winter slop.
This is why I dont understand a lot of the footwear I see people on trail up here with... toebox and weight. I picked up some goretex altras and have put about 10miles on them so far at bridal veil area. Also have 2 different sets of gaiters to try out on the way, one being the rain gaiters from zpacks. Even in the rocky desert I usually dont wear gaiters but I guess its time to learn to adapt to the muddy days.
I’ve been down the Altra LP route and really loved the 6s, now I have the 8s and they’re just too hard on my soles. My feet really hurt after a long day. Also I have the gtx versions and they are _very_ hot on a hot day. Last time I went out I wore the Altra Olympus 6s and found them to be much more comfortable, but still not great on the heel if I’m honest. But they are certainly more comfortable and cushioned. So I’ve just bought a pair of Hoka Anacapa 2s as I’ve heard good things about them. The cushioning seems really good but if there is an issue it’s that moving from Altras, the toe box feels narrow. I’m not saying that’s an issue yet, I’ve only worn them for fairly short walks for two days so far, but it’s something I’m aware of. If the toes aren’t an issue then I have to say that the comfort is really good so far and I hope they work out, I think they will go a long way to reducing the footsore feeling after a long day on the trail.
I’m on year two of a pair of these and they are holding up great. https://www.altrarunning.com/en-us/trail/mens-timp-5-gtx/AL0A85Q1.html
I wear Altras GTX are waterproof. (In California.) If its snow I wear my waterproof boots.
I just bought the Altra Timp 5 GTX and I love them. The toe box is a little smaller than another pair I had but still a great fit. A
I’ve been wearing mostly hiking sneakers for the past few years. Usual downfall for me is really muddy or snowy areas. I got Altra Timp 5 GTX. They haven’t done me wrong in any conditions in the past 6 months. I would get another pair once these wear out.
I’m leaning towards the timps as I’m used to the lone peaks already.
I wear my hiking shoes, a pair of Altra Timp 5 GTX Mids. They have a wide toe box and the Vibram sole has been very durable.
Altra or the vans. The rest are trash.
