Love the video Gary! You’ve sold them on me. How’s the sizing compared to the Lone Peaks? Should i stick with the same size if I was already comfortable? 🙈
On paper my Altra Olympus 5 Hike Low GTX shouldn't feel as good as the Altra Olympus 6 Trail, but they do. I tried out Altra Olympus 6 and they feel horrible.
@@kobra45ACP I'm NOT saying to avoid Olympus 6. Everyone's feet are different. It's like buying a mattress. What I am saying is, Olympus 6 felt horrible on MY feet, but I think you should try them on first, then if you like them buy them for the best price around.

Great review Gary. Always love the detail. Great to see Rex co-starring with you.
Thanks Steve! Rex was unusually well behaved 😅
Top class review as always Gary. Sounds like a decent easy cruiser mate. 😎🤘
Thanks Ben 🙏🏻 Yeah, great all day cruiser 🙌🏻
Informative review, thanks mate 👍
Cheers mate 🙏🏻

Thanks 🙏🏻 No issues for me re sizing compared to lone peak 7’s. Try before you buy if possible 👍🏻

I have the 5 Hike Low GTX like you do. What is so bad about the 6 compared to the 5 GTX? Should I avoid the 6?

@@mistersmith3986 Ok thanks, I am actually a big fan of the Timp 4 and do not like the Timp 5. I will try before I buy on the Olympus 6.
@@kobra45ACPYeah, 100% try before you buy. I love the Timp 5 so these might not be for you.
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻 It’s amazing how a shoe can split opinion 😅
Shame they fall apart so fast but nothing better for a wide toebox.
I keep hearing they fall apart, but so far so good for me 👍🏻
@@teaandtrails I have never got over 300 miles on a pair of Alta's thruhiking but hope you have better luck running in them.
