Altra Lone Peak 9+ Sizing Guide: Does It Run Small or True to Size?

Fit Notes

Altra Lone Peak 9

Same last, same length. The 9+ upper feels a little stiffer and less forgiving for the first few runs, and the Vibram outsole adds a slightly firmer feel underfoot. If you wear the Lone Peak 9 Wide, don't buy the 9+ in your usual size expecting the same volume, because the + version is regular width only.

Hoka Speedgoat 6

The Speedgoat is snug and tapered with a big rocker and a much taller stack. The Lone Peak 9+ gives your toes far more room and sits way closer to the ground. If you sized up in the Speedgoat just to stop toe rub, go back to your true length here; the FootShape box handles width without extra length.

Saucony Peregrine 14

Both are ground-close and grippy, but the Peregrine has a 4mm drop and a much narrower, more precise forefoot. Length matches well. Expect more room across the toes and less lockdown on fast, technical descents in the Lone Peak.

Brooks Cascadia 18

The Cascadia has a traditional 6mm drop and a medium-width toe box with a cushier, more protective ride. The Lone Peak 9+ is flatter, roomier, and firmer. Length lines up; if you wear a Cascadia Wide for toe room, the regular Lone Peak 9+ should feel just as spacious up front.

Altra Olympus 6

The Olympus 6 runs about a half size short, so many people buy it a half size up. If you did that, come back down to your true size in the Lone Peak 9+. The Lone Peak's toe box is also deeper and roomier than the Olympus's FootShape fit.
