Why We Like The Dynafit Alpine Trail Running Shoe
From rocky switchbacks to muddy valleys, Dynafit's Alpine Trail Running Shoe keeps our strikes solid and our strides efficient for smooth miles atop technical terrain. The seamless, padded tongue reduces friction and pressure for a distraction-free fit, while the rear preloader band locks in our heel to boost stability on landings and to slingshot us through transitions. As we push pace and collect miles, the Vibram Megagrip sole eats up the trail, wet or dry, ensuring no energy is leaked.

Great shoe. Fits small.
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- 9.5
These shoes are very comfortable and stable. Great for hiking. But they fit at least one size small. I normally buy a size eight and I went with a 9.5 and they are now just right.

Shoe was too small. I will need to follow suit with other buyers and go up a 1/2 size to full size.

Sizing is way off.
As others have mentioned, do not buy these online. You must try them on. The sizes are not even close to accurate.

Excellent All-arounder
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Great shoe. I read the reviews and upsized by one full size (Normally wear a 11, ordered a 12) and not disappointed one bit. Good fit, comfy for a wider/high volume foot out of the box. Bought as a "hiking" shoe, rather than runner but very happy with the performance. Tread is grippy, and does a nice job handling mud.

Good tread, just runs way too small
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- 8.5
I want to like these shoes, they have all the tools for a great trail runner/hiker, but they simply are a half to a full size too small. Bought 8.5 size, and they are actually more like 7.5 size.

Runs A Full Size Small
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- 11.5
I originally ordered this shoe in a size 10.5 which is what I typically wear. When they arrived and I put them on, I could immediately tell that they were too small. I did live chat with Backcountry who made the exchange process very easy and I got size 11.5 instead. When these came in they felt tighter than I expected but still pretty good. I did a few warm up runs and then ran a 25k in them. By the end of that run my feet had swelled a bit, so the shoes definitely felt too small. Since then, I've noticed that even with the non-swelled foot, the shoes are slightly too small, almost to the point of discomfort. If I could do it again, I would order a size 12 (which is 1.5 sizes up from normal). Otherwise, I like these shoes. My favorite part is the grippy Vibram sole. I also like the support of the heel cup, which seems to custom mold around your heel. The shoelace cover is so minor that most people miss it, but very helpful to protect from snags when you trail run. Overall I'm pretty happy with these shoes outside of the sizing issue.

SIZE ONE FULL SIZE UP! Great trail running shoes. High quality. Light weight but not super lightweight more on the durable side. Really nice pointy and grippy toe. Definitely looking foward to some technical scrambling in these things.
