Outdoor shoes basically include high mountain boots, hiking shoes, walking shoes, casual shoes, upstream shoes, rock climbing shoes, beach shoes, ski boots, golf shoes... The most important one is also mentioned that most of them are hiking shoes and Relocation shoes. Some foreigners have divided these two types of shoes into smaller ones, including Mountaineering, Trek king, Hiling boots, and Trail shoes. Higging step shoes, I analyze the two shoes for you.
1, ready to participate in activities
According to the intensity of your participation in activities, terrain, road conditions, etc. to determine the type of shoes. When you are involved in a variety of activities, it means that you need different types of shoes to adapt to your activities, do not expect to buy a pair of shoes to bring you full functionality. I now have a pair of high-alpine boots, hiking shoes, walking shoes, upstream shoes, rock climbing shoes and beach shoes. I still can't think of any pair of shoes that can replace all the shoes. Snow Mountain or go rock climbing.
The highest number of hiking shoes that everyone asked on the forum was nothing less than going to the low mountain or mountain pass and camping activities. When choosing, you could consider lightweight hiking shoes or walking shoes, high or low help. The choices are based on your road conditions. Under normal circumstances, the more complicated the road, the harder the road you need to take care of.
Whether or not soles buy V-bottoms has also been the focus of controversy for many people. First, it is necessary to make clear that slippery and wear-resistant are always a contradiction. All outdoor shoes are just a balance between the two, usually Said that hiking shoes pay more attention to the wear of the shoes and the support on the feet, so it is relatively not very slippery. Some of the walking shoes do not use V-bottoms to emphasize the relative wear resistance on the basis of anti-skid. However, it should be understood that this is only relative. Such a sole and a hiking shoe always have worse wear resistance than the V bottom. If you are often climbing in the mountains of the North, then the V-bottom is undoubtedly a good choice. If you like to travel between the mountains and the rivers in the South, perhaps you should consider slipping more.
Others asked GTX if it was good. This involves the following question.
2. Investment of funds
With sufficient funds, GTX's waterproof breathable fabric is definitely your first choice.
In terms of price selection, from the current domestic existing brands: 2,000 yuan more basic: SCRPA, ZAMBERLAN;
From 1000 to 2000 yuan: ASOLO, MONTRAIL, AKU VASQUE, TREKSTA, LASPORTIVA, LOWA, etc.;
600 to 1200 yuan are: GARMONT, HB, SALEWA, CAMPLINE, COLEMAN, PITORPAN;
Below 600 yuan: GONNA, UPLANDER, Cedar, Sherpa, Xi Yao, KATANA.
When you prepare your budget, I would like to remind you: Don't expect to spend very little money on good shoes. If you spend more than 1000, the quality of the shoes will be relatively better. If you only spend two or three hundred, use it as an entry-level shoe, and hope that it can be worn for the rest of your life. Somewhat less wise.
3, styles, materials, workmanship, quality
From the style, there are many shoes now, some people like to have rubber on the head of the hiking shoes, which can prevent the damage of the toe heads that often kick stones, and some people like the style of the whole skin. Some people like the beauty of the skin. There are many options available now, just pick the style you like.
The use of materials, the fur is usually more difficult to clean, but more fashionable, in addition to the wild through the city leisure is also very good, but the smooth surface is better to clean up, NUBUK is currently doing a better shoe leather.
Workmanship in the footwear products is difficult to distinguish from the appearance of good or bad, you can only look at the glue in the upper part of the shoe joints, the line slits are neat.
Compared to other outdoor equipment, there will be more quality problems in footwear, which is related to its intensity of use, and also related to the quality of shoes. For quality, the best persuasive power is how many shoes are returned. If you are unsure, you can consult with the clerk of the outdoor shop (but if an outdoor shop does not have more than 4 footwear brands, it is best not to To ask this question), a good clerk will introduce you to the difference between the various brands of shoes.
4, try shoes
This is the most crucial point when buying shoes. Whether the shoe is comfortable or not, or whether it fits is only known to you, so pick your first few shoes that you are satisfied with, and then double-test until you find a comfortable shoe. If you are hesitant between beautiful and fit, you must buy it!
Put on your shoes and walk more. If you have a shoe bench, you can try it out in a simulated outdoor environment.
In addition, many outdoor shoes in China are European and American styles, which are slightly different from those of the Chinese (Europeans have narrower feet than Asians, lower feet, and lower heel slopes). I suggest you try to buy shoes to wear thick socks, put on the shoes still need to leave about 1CM space (long walk after the feet will swell), the simple way is to see if it can insert a finger. In the afternoon and evening, people's feet will be bigger than the morning, and these factors must be taken into account when buying shoes.
5, running, maintenance
After the new shoes are bought back, be sure to run in for a period of time before the high-intensity activities to avoid the painful experience caused by the shoes not being worn during the activity. Eagle eagle tips: new shoes can be worn when wearing two pairs of socks, a thin layer of socks inside, a pair of thick outer socks, so that the friction between the socks to reduce the friction of the shoes on the feet, it will not appear to blisters The phenomenon.
After each trip back, you should take care of your shoes, especially the high-end GTX shoes. Use a soft brush to remove the dirt from the upper and then use the footwear care agent. Developing such habits is good for the life of your shoes!
10 tips for buying a good pair of shoes
1 Ask the expert. When you walk into a mountaineering store to buy shoes, ask the sales person who knows the best shoes to help, or pick a store that has climbers to stay in. If not, reserve an appointment to meet.
2 Be sure to actually try on the measurements. Do not use the size of the previous shoe to infer that the size of the feet will change.
3 Do not be confused by the size of the number, whether British, European or American size (also divided into men and women), the size of the size of the shoe factory will be affected by the standard and design, it is best to try on a few more adjacent size
4 buy shoes at night! At night, the human foot will inflate slightly, just as it is when walking in the mountains.

6 bring your own socks, it is best used with socks for hiking shoes
7After tying the shoelaces, the active toes can touch the front wall. After wearing the new shoes for a long time, the width and thickness may be slightly increased, but the length will not increase. Too short shoes will often hit the toes and nails.
8 When trying on, wearing a shoe and walking, on the one hand, the leather or fiber of the new shoes is more flexible. On the other hand, you can also try to find out if there are any uncomfortable feelings.
9 Buy a shoe that fits your needs, but don't think of a pair of shoes for all uses. Also don't buy a special pair of shoes just for a special trip.
10 Grasp the feeling of your feet, pick the one that is most comfortable, and try all your shoes with that standard. Only one person knows which pair of shoes are best for you. It is yourself.
