Favorite pair of shoes I own. Fits true to size and provides all day comfort. I wear these shoes everyday
That’s what we like to hear. The ALTAMA® Maritime was built for all-day comfort, dependable fit, and mission-ready performance whether you’re on the move, on the water, or grinding through everyday wear.
We appreciate the support and are honored to be your go-to pair day in and day out.
The overall style is amazing and I love the fit, however, I would prefer a more eco friendly material, perhaps a water shedding cotton and a cork insole. Some way to make the shoe still fulfill its function while incorporating natural materials would make this shoe perfect.
Thanks for the solid feedback. At ALTAMA®, we’re always working to balance eco-conscious innovation with the mission-ready durability and performance our footwear is built for. Features like rapid drainage, quick dry capability, and long-term toughness have to hold the line in demanding environments.
That said, ideas like natural materials, water-shedding cotton, and cork insoles are absolutely valuable input, and we’ll pass your suggestions along to our Product Development team for review. We appreciate you helping us push the standard forward.
I have owned my pair since 2017. I use them for run-swim-run, diving, and even gym wear. Lakes, creaks, rovers, oceans, mountains, they've been all over. I do not wear them every day or for my rucks, but they have a few hundred miles on them. They drain and dry quickly, they're extremely comfy, and i tell everyone about them. They are just now showing some cracking in the toe, so I'm back for another pair, for my husband as well. Phenomenal product you guys have.
This is exactly what the ALTAMA® Maritime was built for. From run-swim-run training and diving to mountain trails, rivers, lakes, and everyday gym work, it’s mission-ready footwear designed to thrive where ordinary shoes fail. Hearing that your pair has been running strong since 2017 with hundreds of miles behind them is the kind of real-world durability story we’re proud of.
Quick-draining performance, fast dry times, all-day comfort, and amphibious capability are at the core of the Maritime design, and we appreciate you putting them through their paces across every environment imaginable. Even better—thanks for spreading the word and bringing your husband into the ALTAMA® family as well.
We appreciate the years of support and are honored to be part of your kit. Stay after it.
I had the same issues that have reported, such as the popping, through enough use it eventually fixed itself...my main issue is why make a waterproof shoe and then put a non waterproof spot in the lowest point of the shoe for it to just defeat the whole purpose of waterproofing....plus whatever material that spot is made of is already tearing and wearing and I have only had them a month
Thanks for the feedback and for spending serious time in the ALTAMA® Maritime. We do want to clarify that the Maritime is not designed as a waterproof boot—it’s purpose-built as a water-friendly amphibious shoe made to allow rapid drainage, free water flow, and quick drying in maritime and wet environments. The port areas are intentionally engineered to move water out fast rather than seal it out.
That said, we’re concerned to hear about the material wear you mentioned after only a month of use. While the Maritime is built for demanding environments, we’d still like the opportunity to take a closer look at what’s going on. Please reach out to our customer service team at info@originalfootwear.com
with photos and your order information so we can review the issue and help however we can.
We appreciate the honest input and your support of ALTAMA®.
Wore my Maritime Mids all day. These are the most comfortable combat type shoes I have ever worn. I love they’re made to wear without socks. Awesome fit. Awesome comfort.
