Altra Lone Peak failure

 Until this month I've ben happy with the wear rate of Altra Lone Peak shoes as trail running shoes. Last weekend I walked 80 miles with a light pack (5.5kg including water) across a wide range of surfaces, although none especially 'sharp', and the shoes are finished. I've worn through the upper on both sides at the ball of the foot.

There's only 500 miles in total on the shoes which isn't as good as I've achieved in the past. Do a quick search online and you'll find many complaining about excessive wear and tear.
