This is common for users new to the design. Gradually increase the distance of your hikes over a few weeks to allow your lower legs to adjust.
Consider using an external gaiter, as the shoe design allows for easy attachment of gaiters to block rocks and dust.
To ensure the longevity of your Altra Olympus 7 shoes, it is recommended to clean them after every muddy or dusty hike. Use a soft brush to remove loose debris, and if necessary, gently wash the exterior with cold water and a mild soap; do not use harsh chemicals or a washing machine, as these can degrade the materials. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators. Because of their unique anatomical shape, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks to prevent blisters during the initial break-in phase.
