About Hiking Shoes
Invest in Your Adventure: Choosing the Perfect Hiking Shoe for Every Hike
The beauty of hiking lies in its accessibility. All you need is a sense of adventure, a good pair of legs, and the right hiking shoes to explore breathtaking trails. But with a vast array of hiking shoes available, choosing the perfect pair can feel daunting. Don't worry, outdoor enthusiasts! This guide will equip you with the knowledge to navigate the world of hiking shoes, ensuring you find the ideal companion for every adventure, from leisurely strolls on groomed paths to challenging treks through rugged terrain.
Know Your Terrain: Matching Hiking Shoes to Your Adventures
The most important factor to consider when choosing hiking shoes is the type of terrain you'll be tackling. Here's a breakdown of popular hiking shoe options for different terrains:
- Day Hiking Shoes: These versatile shoes are ideal for well-maintained trails and moderate hikes. They offer good traction, comfort, and breathability for day trips on easy to moderate terrain.
- Backpacking Boots: For overnight backpacking adventures or hikes with heavier loads, consider backpacking boots. They provide superior ankle support, stability, and a sturdier sole for carrying a backpack comfortably on uneven or rough terrain.
- Trail Running Shoes: If you prioritize speed and agility on well-maintained trails, trail running shoes might be a good option. They offer lightweight construction, flexibility, and good traction for faster-paced hiking or trail running.
Considering the Elements: Waterproofing and Breathability
The weather conditions you'll encounter can influence your shoe choice:
- Waterproof Hiking Shoes: For hikes in wet or rainy conditions, consider waterproof hiking shoes. These shoes feature a waterproof membrane that keeps your feet dry while maintaining breathability.
- Breathable Hiking Shoes: For warm weather hikes or situations where breathability is a priority, choose breathable hiking shoes made from mesh or other lightweight materials.
Fit for Adventure: Ensuring Comfort on the Trail
Comfort is key for enjoyable hikes. Here's what to consider for a proper fit:
- Proper Sizing: Ill-fitting shoes can lead to blisters and fatigue. Get professionally sized for hiking shoes, considering factors like width and arch support.
- Try Before You Buy: Don't underestimate the importance of trying on hiking shoes with the socks you plan to wear on your hikes. Ensure a snug but comfortable fit with good heel lock.
- Break-in Period: New hiking shoes might feel stiff initially. Wear them for short walks before your big adventure to break them in and avoid blisters.
Invest in Your Adventure: The Perfect Hiking Shoe Awaits
The right hiking shoes can make all the difference in your hiking experience. By prioritizing the factors discussed in this guide, you can choose a pair that perfectly matches your hiking style, terrain, and weather conditions. Remember, comfortable and supportive hiking shoes are an investment in your outdoor adventures. So, lace up for your next hike with confidence, knowing you have the perfect footwear to conquer any trail!

User Reviews
Only 1 negative, the shoe runs just a hair on the large size! But not so much you can go to a smaller size! I am happy with mine and think i may have to try other ECCO shoes now, if i can afford them…Oh, so i guess thats 2 negative things really!
Ecco makes fabulous stuff, usually a bit narrow which works well for my feet. This shoe however, runs just a bit large, and then ended up being extremely uncomfortable when tightened (too loose, heel movement/rub. too tight, rubs/constricts on the top of my left foot). Smaller size had a notch in the heel area that then rubbed also, despite full on hiking socks. This may be idiosyncratic and just "me". Different feet will fit different. Attractive shoe, solidly constructed, liked it very much...just couldn't wear it. Able to return free of charge so no obvious penalty for trying it out.
Ecco are my go to shoes - I've had multiple sneakers, boots, and golf shoes. I keep buying them because they are ridiculously comfortable, last a long time, and look good. When it was time to get new hiking shoes, I thought ecco is the only choice.Boy was I wrong! First off, I have size 43 for all my ecco shoes. I ordered 43 in these shoes and they were enormous! I returned and sized down. The size down fit, but I could not walk in these things longer than 5 minutes without my ankles killing me. It rubs right against the part of the ankle on the sides. I couldn't stand it and returned them.I went over to dsw and found 3-4 similar shoes that were much cheaper and felt great. I'm sad that I couldn't complete my ecco shoe line. This will be the last ecco hiking shoes I will ever try.
The bigger size is too big, the smaller is too small + uncomfortable.The return is difficultI am not impressed for the price
good shoes
These are a bit more rigid then the prior two pairs of Ecco shoes I purchased (Men's Biom Venture Gore-tex Tie Hiking Shoe and ECCO Men's Espinho Speed Lace Hiking Shoe, which both seemed equivalent). I loved my prior two pairs which were immediately comfortable to wear, but they are discontinued and appear no longer available so I opted for these. As the name indicates these are hiking shoes and therefore a bit more rigid. However they are still on the lighter side in terms of hiking shoes so great for everyday wear--especially in the Seattle rain. You need to break these in a bit before they feel comfortable. The initial discomfort for me was primarily above and around the toe box. They feel very well built and waterproof. They also look great.Update: After about a year the material (on inside) behind the heel wore down so now there is a horizontal break with a piece of semi-hard material that rubs into my achilles tendon. I have to repair of toss. Taking off one star for this. Otherwise they have been great. Also I'm not sure why this is now described as a "woman's shoe".
I was in Beijing, China, and bought these shoes from Amazon in the US.ECCO is a relatively well-known brand, and it costs twice as much to buy it in Beijing's shopping malls. Purchasing from overseas websites is not without its shortcomings, and it requires a long wait. This time it coincides with Christmas and New Year's Day, and the transshipment company during the period also delayed a lot of time. In short, it takes more than a month to place an order and purchase the goods.This shoe is a model that ECCO has just launched. I personally like it. It is very suitable for outdoor sports. The appearance is relatively young and fashionable. It is said that the sole is cooperated with Michelin.I wear a size 42 all the time, which translates to a US size 8.5. It is very comfortable to wear on the feet and relatively light. The shoe shape of this shoe is actually more suitable for Europeans and Americans. Asians have wider feet, so the inside of the shoe is suitable for left and right, but there is more space in the front and rear of the shoe.The details of the shoes have been designed with a lot of thought, some for practicality, and some for aesthetics. I only hope that this shoe can be accompanied for a longer time, so that it is worthy of his brand influence and my trust in it.If there is a chance, I will review it after a period of time.
