Altra Timp 6 GTX

Altra Timp 6 GTX review: what runners say

Fit

Fit corrected relative to previous versions: wider in the forefoot, less snug at the big toe. Still slightly slimmer than a Lone Peak but now aligned with the Torin.

Feel

Max-cushion with a 30 mm stack, road-Torin-like feel underfoot. Marginally softer than the Timp 5.

Durability

Expected to exceed 500 km. GTX upper is sturdy and abrasion-resistant; Vibram outsole with improved grip over previous versions.

Best for

Zero-drop trail runners oriented toward long efforts and all-day use on mixed and muddy terrain. Ideal for Torin fans on pavement who want a trail counterpart with high stack and zero drop.

Weak points

Price up to $165 (+$10 vs. Timp 5). Previous versions were flagged for an overly narrow and stiff fit — issue now claimed resolved but not yet verified over high mileage.
