The Altra Timp GTX is a well-cushioned, waterproof version of the Timp 5. It features an updated midsole for better energy return and a Vibram sole for superior grip and durability.

Altra says: 

THIS IS THE TRAIL IN TIMP. Tested and proven for durably waterproof, windproof, & breathable performance, backed by the GORE-TEX GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™ promise. According to Vibram®, the Vibram® Megagrip outsole offers unparalleled grip on both wet and dry surfaces Altra EGO™ MAX midsole for a plush, cushioned feel

Our Verdict

Altras has taken everything we love about the Timp 5 and swaddled it in a Gore-tex membrane, making this well-cushioned and robust lone peak alternative fully waterproof.

The Timp GTX's 29mm stack height and updated EGO MAX midsole provide better energy return, resulting in a more cushioned and bouncy step, similar to that of the Hoka Speed Goat. This reduces foot fatigue, especially on longer road sections and compact trails.

The Timp GTX uses the same Vibram sole as its non-waterproof counterpart. The Vibram sole offers superior grip and durability and performs well on various terrains and in wet or dry conditions.

The Timp's toe box is more "natural" than the Lone Peaks, resulting in a slightly narrower fit. Based on feedback from others, including Altra, it is recommended to consider sizing up in the Timp about half a size.
