Hiking Shoes Intro

Hiking Shoes are your most important piece of equipment whether you are hiking or backpacking. With a poor fitting pair of hiking shoes your feet will hurt and you won't enjoy your trek. A quality pair of hiking shoes or hiking boots will be comfortable and durable to stand up to the type of terrain that you are hiking on. A super strong sole is appropriate for a rough and rocky terrain but it is overkill for urban hiking. I hope to talk more about the differences between the many hiking boots and hiking shoes options in future posts.

Also note that women shoes are different from those for men. Make sure you get ones that fit very well because you will pay a big price if you don't have good fitting hiking shoes.
