Size chart

*The comparison measurement is the measured length of the longer foot plus 0.5 cm. Therefore, do not add additional space when comparing the measurement to the table.

How is the Altra Lone Peak 9+ sized?

Our size recommendation

First of all, choose your usual size in Altra. If you already use Lone Peak and are happy with the size, you can usually choose the same size in Lone Peak 9+.

If you are between two sizes, the area of use should determine the choice:

• Choose the larger size for long runs, hiking, thicker socks or if your feet tend to swell.
• Choose the smaller size only if your measurement is closer to the smaller size and you have narrow or low-volume feet.
• Don't go down a size just because the toe box feels wide. First, check that the shoe still has enough length.
• Use heel-locking lacing if the heel moves but the length feels correct.

For trail running and hiking, there should be enough space in front of the toes so that they don't hit the front edge of the shoe on downhill slopes.

How to measure your feet

1. Measure your feet in the afternoon or evening when they are usually at their largest.
2. Wear the socks you plan to wear with your shoes.
3. Place a piece of paper on a hard floor next to a wall.
4. Place your heel lightly against the wall and put normal weight on your foot.
5. Mark where the longest toe ends.
6. Measure the distance from the edge of the paper to the mark.
7. Repeat with the other foot, starting from the longer one.
8. Add 0.5 cm and compare the result with the table.

Check the fit

The heel and midfoot should be stable while the toes should be able to move freely. It is a good idea to try the shoes on an inclined surface and check that the foot does not slide forward. The toes should not hit the front edge when you walk or run downhill.
