Choosing the correct shoe for hiking is essential. Choosing a shoe that fits your foot correctly and offers the support you require can prevent injuries such as a twisted ankle or severe blisters, according to Fitness-equipment-health.com. There are specific shoes available that have been designed specifically for women, which are more suited to the typical female foot. According to Consumersearch's website, when choosing which hiking shoes to purchase, experts say that for every one pound extra weight you carry on your feet, it is the equivalent of another 5 to 6 lbs. on your back.
Keen Voyageur Low
Low-cut hiking shoes, Keen Voyageur Low shoes are ideal for short day trips. The shoes weight online 30 oz. per pair compared to the average 2 lbs. according to Consumersearch. The lining of the shoe is made from polyester to aid with ventilation and drying. The shoes have received favorable reviews by Zappos, REI and Camping Life magazine. The only drawback of the Keen Voyageur Low is that they offer little ankle support due to their lightweight nature and low-cut.
Keen Targhee II Mid
Recommended by Gearreview.com for backpacking as opposed to hiking, the Keen Targhee II Mid offers mid-range ankle support that is appropriate for people carrying loads up to 35 lbs. The shoes are waterproof, ideal for wetter climates. The waterproof lining used is eVent lining as opposed to the more common Gore-Tex, as it is supposed to be more breathable. Users report that sizing of this brand of shoe can be a difficulty. Many have to try on several pairs to find one that fits.
Kayland Zephyr
Winning the 2009 Editors Choice award from The Backpacking Magazine, the Kayland Zephyr is a highly recommended brand of hiking shoe. The editors made comments praising all aspects of the brand. Versatile shoes that are comfortable enough to wear for hiking but offer enough support for backpackers carrying loads up to 50 lbs. Kayland Zephyr shoes like Keen Targhee II Mid, use eVent Cocona lining for a breathable waterproofing. The shoes have been noted to have an excellent lace system allowing width to be adjusted without creating pressure points that can cause blisters and sprains.
