The Altra Lone Peak 3.5 are trail running shoes that are presented as a new update, and an improved version of one of the best-selling trail models of the American firm. Although they still maintain the main lines of the previous edition, these Lonepeak 35 include subtle improvements to enhance the experience of the mountain runner.
That is, the Altra Lone Peak 3.5 incorporate a new mesh that is more resistant and breathable, in addition to providing greater durability. To which we must add a moderate cushioning, much appreciated among Altra Running followers. Although one of the most outstanding features of this trail running shoe is its great versatility, because it is designed as a good choice for short and long distance competitions, and even for hiking, and a sport as fashionable as fastpacking.
The high performance and great response offered by the Altra Lone Peak 3.5 come from the successful combination of materials and latest generation technologies of the Utah brand. Thus, its midsole combines a double layer of EVA with a top layer of A-Bound, and also includes InnerFlex technology, which makes this trail shoe more responsive and reactive to improve running performance.
On the other hand, the Lone Peak 3.5 also incorporates the innovative GaiterTrap system, consisting of 4 points of attachment of the bellows, which is very effective and simple, favoring a greater degree of support to cope with all kinds of situations and circumstances on the ground.
In the outsole, these Altra Lone Peak 3.5 mix the outstanding MAXTRAC and Trailclaw technologies, in addition to Stoneguard, which translates into improved grip and traction, without neglecting optimal protection.
Made from recycled materials, this plate is inserted just under the foot, minimizing impact while providing energy return from each stride.
This system is part of the components present in both the midsole and outsole, and its main mission is to make running more natural. This is also directly influenced by the Zero Drop platform.
It is a network of internal grooves in the midsole, which contribute to increase the flexibility of the model, but also to provide a faster response to improve performance, without sacrificing speed. In addition, this technology also contributes to reducing the weight of the shoe.
A network of lugs arranged under the metatarsals, and in the form of claws in the front of the model. A design designed to face the descents and ascents with all the guarantees.
Toe cap design that favors the natural expansion of the toes, which generates more stability, and also a more powerful toe-off.
flexible protective shield, which together with a plate, will offer greater protection against rocks and external elements, when you travel over uneven terrain, so you can enjoy a more stable and smoother run.
The Altra Lone Peak 3.5 have that minimalist concept of Zero Drop, and have a weight of about 295 grams, lighter than in its previous version, and is specially designed for all those profiles of regular runners and runners with neutral tread.
