Altra Women's Timp 6 Mid Gore-Tex

A lightweight waterproof mid hiker built for women who want ankle support and all-day comfort without the weight of a traditional hiking boot. The Timp 6 Mid brings together a Gore-Tex upper, Vibram outsole, and Altra's signature foot-shaped toe box in a versatile package that handles everything from local trails to full day mountain objectives.

Highlights

• Gore-Tex Invisible Fit upper — Fully waterproof protection integrated directly into the upper without a bulky liner. Keeps feet dry on wet trail, creek crossings, and dewy morning starts without adding unnecessary weight or stiffness.
• Vibram Megagrip outsole — One of the most trusted traction compounds in hiking footwear. Handles wet rock, mud, and mixed terrain with confidence across variable conditions.
• Altra EGO MAX midsole foam — A lightweight, responsive foam at 30mm stack height that delivers cushioning and energy return for long days on trail without the dead, compressed feel of a heavier foam.
• Mid ankle design with enhanced collar — Adds meaningful ankle support and protection on uneven terrain without the rigidity of a full boot. The updated collar improves comfort and reduces hotspots on extended wear.
• Zero drop platform — A 0mm heel to toe drop encourages a natural gait and keeps your foot in its natural position throughout the stride. A meaningful difference for runners and hikers transitioning from traditional footwear.
• Altra FootShape toe box — Wider through the forefoot for natural toe splay and movement. Reduces hotspots, blisters, and the compression that a narrow toe box creates on long days.
• Closed eyelet hardware lacing — A secure, consistent fit across the midfoot that holds your heel in place on technical descents without pressure points.
• 85% RPET upper construction — Recycled content in the upper material without compromising performance or durability.

Best for

Women hikers who want a lightweight, waterproof mid hiker with a natural foot feel for day hikes and all-day trail objectives across variable terrain and conditions. A strong choice for anyone who prefers a zero drop platform or wider toe box and doesn't want to give up waterproofing or ankle support to get it.
