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
These are a nice, light shoe and seem to be of good quality. I felt they were very true to size. A 9 extra wide is a 9 extra wide. The adjustable elastic laces are great although I wish there were a way to shorten them. I plan to use these hiking waterfall trails in the mountains. I'm not afraid to get them wet. The insole is removable. Not a heavy shoe.
Bought these when they were offered at a discounted price. A great deal! I think they're quite ugly and I'm not a fan of pink, but these shoes are very comfortable for long walks and day hikes. Highly recommended. My only issue is that your foot is exposed a little with the cutouts, so they aren't good for cold weather use.Update: comfortable enough to buy a second pair. This time I bought a color I LIKE. If it's as good as my other pair, this pair will make me very pleased.
Water walking and casual walking dream shoe. Cushioned, Good traction, good support in a stylish sandal. So glad I purchased these great shoes.
Shoes were narrow and not comfortable...poor fit for me
I bought these because I have plantar fasciitis and I like to hike. My orthotics fit in here well but, I’m not impressed with the cushioning in the the shoe. The sole grips well - it feels secure to walk over uneven and slippery terrain. Feeling meh about these.
Very comfortable!Just what I was looking for!
At first, I raved about these shoes. I wanted something firm for rough terrain, but wasn't hot. These worked perfectly until . . . after about 10 uses, the toggle quit keeping the lace tight. Once the lace loosened, then the back of the shoe rubbed on my heel. After 10 more uses, I have to stop every 1/2 mile or so and re-tighten. It's not worth the hassle so I won't wear them and can't return them. Big waste of money.
I would purchase again.
