Hiking Shoes - Light And Cheap

A dozen years ago I went from using hiking boots to lightweight hiking shoes. It was a part of my move from mainstream backpacking to lightweight or "ultralight backpacking." I stopped getting blisters and have perhaps one or two in the years since.

Apart from keeping things light, another important goal of mine was to spend less money for clothing and equipment. The change to shoes fit into that plan. Here are some of the ways to keep your hiking shoes both light and cheap.

Buy Closeouts

For longer hikes and backpacking trips I like to have high-quality shoes. Generally I use good running shoes that weigh a pound or less each. If they list the weights, I buy them through catalogs or online. Otherwise I can tell by lifting the shoes in the local shoe store if they are in my weight range. If you shop in traditional stores, you could also bring a small kitchen scale to check weights.

Of course, many of the best running shoes cost $80 or even $100. I don't like to spend that much on shoes ever, so I buy closeouts. For some reason, people apparently want the latest fashion. There is no difference in performance as far as I can see or feel, but thanks to this fashion-conscious market last years styles are hard to sell, and so are discounted steeply. I have bought $85 running shoes for as little as $25 in this way.

The Sierra Trading Post catalog is a good one to check for these deals. I won't mention specific brands that are light or cheap because these change so frequently. Check online, get a few catalogs sent to you, and you'll find some deals.

Buy Low Quality

My second strategy for keeping my hiking shoes light and cheap is to go to Wal-Mart or Kmart or other places which sell shoes inexpensively. The lowest cost shoes I use at the moment (2009) are $10 at Wal-Mart. They are definitely low quality, but only in terms of materials and longevity. In actual use, they grip better than any expensive shoes when I am hiking in rocky territory where I like to climb around a bit.

The key with these cheap hiking shoes is to use them only for short backpacking trips and hikes that don't take you too far into the wilderness. I once used a $7 pair of shoes on a week-long 110-mile trip in the Rockies, and I almost regretted it. They came close to falling apart after seven days of rough terrain.

I have to say, though, that they were very comfortable, light, and required no "breaking in." I would use such hiking shoes again, but limit them to trips of about three days or less. I might also carry some duct tape just in case repairs were needed.

So shop those closeout sales for quality running shoes (they still seem better to me than those specifically called hiking shoes). Or buy the cheapest comfortable shoes
you can find for shorter hikes. And bring a scale to the store with you. That's how you keep it light and cheap.

Women's Travel Shoes - Making the Right Choice

When the idea for this article was originally conceived, my purpose was to do some research and then give practical advice on the best shoes to buy and wear while traveling. Shoes seemed like a relevant topic as even an experienced traveler such my girl friend admits “I take too many pairs of shoes with me when I travel and even then I sometimes don’t have the right pair.” I found, not only are shoes a relevant topic for women travelers, shoes are an interesting topic period–a search on shoe topics on the Internet led to me to their history, fascinating facts and photos of a lot of great looking shoes.
So, while I did locate some solid advice on choosing comfortable shoes for traveling (see below), I felt compelled, almost obsessed it seemed, to continue delving into the topic of shoes. Below is only some of what my research revealed.
Some Shoe Facts
• The average American woman owns 30 pairs of shoes–the average male 4.
• 8 1/2 to 9 is the size the average American woman wears.
• 35% of U.S. women wear larger than a size 9 (including celebrity Paris Hilton who cruises around in size 11).
• A recent study in Britain revealed that 4 in 10 women have bought shoes which they have never worn. This translates into over $130 million (U.S. dollars) in unworn shoes (the article was written by a man).
Some Shoe History
• Scientists speculate the first shoes were made from animal skins during the Ice Age to protect feet.
• The biggest find of shoes from prehistory belonged to Native Americans in Missouri and date back to 8000 BC.
• By the time of the ancient Egyptians, shoes, in the form of sandals, became more than just foot protection and were used to display wealth and power.
• Marie Antoinette had 500 pairs of shoes. One servant’s sole job was to catalog her shoes by color, date and style.
• At least 6 pairs of ruby slippers were made for the film the Wizard of Oz, 4 of which survive today. One pair is on display at the Smithsonian and another pair sold at a Christie’s auction for $165,000.
What did I conclude from this widely jumbled assortment of information? First, the Internet can be a fathomless depth and I need to learn when to back away from the computer. Second, despite how often the word “obsession” occurred during my Internet research on women and shoes, the topic will always fascinate me.
Choosing the Right Shoes to Wear While Traveling
Feet endure tremendous pressures during daily living. An average day of walking brings a force equal to several hundred tons to your feet. During a trip you’ll be on your feet and walking even more than usual. The success of your trip could depend on having a comfortable pair of shoes. Unless you’re going hiking on poorly maintained trails in the wilderness, walking or running shoes are best. In this case, Timberland shoes are much better to wear than Prada shoes and Gucci shoes. Below are some tips from the American Podiatric Medical Association for buying the right shoes and getting the best fit.
• It sounds elementary, but be sure the widest part of your foot corresponds to the widest part of the shoe. Be sure that shoes fit well–front, back, and sides–to distribute weight.
• Shop for shoes later in the day; feet tend to swell during the day, and it’s best to be fitted while they are in that state.
• Try on shoes while you’re wearing the same type of socks
you expect to wear with the shoes.
• Don’t rely on the size of your last pair of shoes. Your feet do get larger and sizes vary.
• Have your feet measured while you’re standing.
• Always buy for the larger foot; feet are seldom precisely the same size.
• Always try on both shoes, and walk around the store.
• Don’t buy shoes that need a “break-in” period; shoes should be comfortable immediately.
Don’t Forget the Socks
Your choice of socks is also important. Sports podiatrists frequently recommend padded socks of acrylic fiber. Acrylic fibers tend to “wick” away excessive perspiration, which active feet can produce from 250,000 sweat glands at a rate of four to six ounces a day, or even more (yuk).

Warmth - Obviously in the winter, your feet can get cold easily, especially if you are trekking in deeper snow, so you want to ensure that you get some very warm boots, so that they can handle the lowest temperatures which you will be walking in.
