Now’s a great time to upgrade your hiking boots—incredible sales can be found online at every turn. Adidas recently spun up a great deal on a pair of weather-resistant boots—just $48 a pair—while Amazon's No. 1 bestseller is holding strong at 40% off. Now, REI has marked down a very well-regarded pair from Altra with a roomy fit and lightweight feel, and they're available in two excellent colors.

The Altra Lone Peak Hiker 2 Hiking Boots are on sale for $90, a 40% discount from their usual price of $150. These shoes blend the best of trail shoes and traditional hiking boots into one versatile package, and they’re available in two colorways and come in sizes 8 to 13. They've garnered a ton of attention at REI, earning nearly three dozen five-star ratings from shoppers who say that they're some of the "best hiking boots ever," and with good reason.

The Lone Peak Hiker 2 takes Altra’s vaunted Lone Peak trail shoe and gives it a more boot-like upper for increased protection around your feet. This shoe features Altra’s Ego foam midsole and a cushioned footbed for reliable shock absorption, and overall you can expect a firm, responsive ride that gives you a good feel for the ground. Like most Altra shoes, this model features a zero-drop design—your heel and toes rest at the same level within the shoe. This promotes your natural stride, and a wide toe box (another Altra hallmark) gives your feet plenty of room to swell and spread out during long hikes. On the bottom, a lugged rubber outsole generates solid traction in the dirt, and up top, suede overlays on the upper protect your feet from rocks and brush and give this shoe a handsome look, too.

REI shoppers are going nuts over these shoes, and reviewers have singled out their comfortable, lightweight feel as particular highlights. “These are some of the most comfortable hiking shoes I have ever worn,” said one. “Have put hundreds of miles into them and still going strong.”

Another shopper called them “fantastic” and “extremely comfortable,” while another said the Lone Peak Hiker 2 “feels light and comfortable.”

Lightweight and peppy with an accommodating fit, Altra’s Lone Peak Hiker 2 is a refreshing change from burly, overbuilt hiking boots you typically see on the trail—and it might be just what you need for miles of pain-free exploration. At just $90, there’s never been a better time to try a pair and find out. Snag yours today, though, because these popular hikers will sell out fast at this price.
