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
however, i ordered an 11, which is always perfect, but this 11 had my toes tapping at the front of the shoe and too tight. I had to return and order an 11.5. Hoping that will do the trick.
These are comfy and attractive hiking shoes. When I first received the shoes, I was worried they were too narrow (my feet are a little on the wide side). But within the day, my feet got used to the shoe... or the shoe got used to my feet.The good:- They look nice. Very earthy and hike-y.- Good quality. Tight, strong stitching. After a month or so, no loose or flappy bits.- Comfortable. I could definitely wear them all day. No groaning when kicking them off at the end of a long day. (Well no more groaning than normal)The not-quite-as-good:- Feet seem to slide around in the shoes a little bit. I haven't had my foot measured in a while (still going through life thinking I'm a 10.5 wide). The shoes seemed to fit well. But after some extended trekking or walking the hilly streets, I get the slight feeling of my foot not getting a lot of traction within the shoe. Which could be due to...- The laces do not tie very tight. It could be the location of the lace hooks or the thickness of the tongue or my puny arms, but the laces never seem to really set firm. As soon as I begin to tie, the laces take on some slack. And if I don't tie a double knot, the laces will eventually be dragging through puddles in a couple hours.Overall:These shoes look the part: woodsy and rugged. People might accidentally mistake you for an outdoorsman and not the Netflix binge-watcher that you truly are. They are quite comfortable and definitely good for wearing around the house or casual strolls. For more serious hiking, I would recommend having a friend or your mother tie your shoes for you.
Shipping was fast and Packed well, I wear a Size 12 Wide but I always get a 13 Wide to give a little extra room..This shoe is Not True to size because on my Left Foot it is a little tight Rubbing a Spot on the side of my Little Toe..I have ben wearing them from the day I got them in Hopes that they may ease up and fit better but so far it is really to my little toe with all the tighness and Rubbing..I may have to Buy something else for this Summer because it looks like I am Not going to be able to wear this Shoe.
Bought these in March 2016 specifically for hiking. To be clear, I'm not an avid hiker - I've used these probably 40-50 times in the past year and a half. Typical hike is an hour to an hour and a half, although I've worn these on hikes as long as five hours. I also use these for mowing the lawn, yard work or if I know I'm going to be tromping around in anything that might require a little more ankle support. I can't speak for whether they are waterproof or not. I haven't worn them in rainy/wet circumstances. But, these were very comfortable from the first time I put them on and to date have held up very well. For the price, they have been great for what I bought them for.
My husband ordered these shoes. He did not tell me that one was much smaller than the other (both say size 13), too tight to walk even a few steps. I asked today how his shoes are working, and he admitted he cannot wear them. Unfortunately, window for return closed few days ago.
I had to experiment with the size until I found what fit me by this manufacture. I liked the quality and once I found what size to order, I bought shoes, hiking boots and full size boots. I will compare them to Columbia for instance - BUT at 1/2 the price. Just can't beat that. I guess Columbia has to pay for all there advertising in order to make a profit. I had never heard of these guys and am way impressed. Only time will tell how long they will last, but if they do, they have won me over for many future footwear purchases.
Good quality, a little snug which hopefully stretches in time, good price and good looking!
#1...Because of the hook-type eyelets on the top, these were hard for me to lace-up. #2...I had to replace the laces because they would loosen-up and not stay laced. #3...the rubber on the heal started to wear out in about two weeks. They look good and fit good but I wouldn't buy them again.
