Hiking Boots Shoes

I'll be hiking in a few months and I really have no idea what kind of hiking shoes to get. I am on the trails with a bag on my back. I am a woman. Any ideas of good quality shoes?

Thank you in advance.

Keen, redwing, Danner, few Columbia, Asolo ... are all popular brands. I have a pair of hiking shoes keen GTX H2O proof. If you order online to read the comments if you go to a store to go to rei, Gander Mountain .. ect. ask the clerk. I also have a pair of hiking boots Danner. Make sure you get something at least mid-calf if you do rocks or water in them. If you go on the trail hiking shoes are fine. If your hills to type commands to get mountain boots. enjoy

You want a shoe that has a clamp "type only, is comfortable and loose enough to wear two pairs of socks, if necessary, (1 pair heavy" boot "socks, a sock and one thin type.)

The synthetic leather is better than for at least the top "in most cases.

Buy them early enough that you can wear them enough, in short periods, to "break" before hiking. (New boots, even well-equipped, CAN cause discomfort and / or bulbs!)

SI hiking in a "wet" area, they should be at least water resistant. "

Hope this helps, have fun.

ALWAYS carry at least two "spare" pair of socks!

It is best to buy in a store specializing in walking and hiking. Clerks there will be hikers themselves, and be better able to advise you on what to buy considering your budget and requirements you'll encounter.

Do not expect to choose a pair quickly. Even knowing what I want when I buy a new pair, I often take as much as 1 1 / 2 hours trying boots --- this from a guy whose never spent more than 20 minutes by choosing to other types of shoes.

BTW, modern boots --- most of which have synthetic uppers --- do not need the type of failure in this old leather boots time. Even if you want to walk in them before starting your hike.

It is best if both itself and boots, taking short walks in the neighborhood, the realization of your pack. Keep the extension of the distance.

And be sure to learn about foot care. You can find info about it here:

If you want to pay more than they usually last longer. the best brands in this range are Meindl or Berghaus. You can never go wrong with them.

If you want synthetic or cheaper, but both the quality of the Hi Tec weather are fantastic. I go hiking on any terrain in all weather and a pair of waterproof () lasts me a full season.
Hint - what you buy to ensure they are brought before the appropriate use and are made with hiking socks too. Many people blame the boots when they wear new socks on long hikes without breaking in.
