Frequently Asked Questions
Altra Timp vs Lone Peak: what's the difference?
The Timp has more cushion (29mm of EGO™ MAX vs 25mm on the Lone Peak) and a slightly more secure Standard FootShape™. The Lone Peak is lower, roomier and more ground-connected.
How does the BOA® dial work on the Timp 5?
Twist the dial to tighten, pull it out to release. It spreads tension evenly and stays put, so there are no laces to come untied mid-run.
