Do you know what the purpose of wearing outdoor shoes is? Outdoor footwear OR hiking shoes are intended to provide comfort for wearers and offer good protection for human feet against harsh conditions. Similarly, the main purposes of hiking shoes are to protect your feet against bruising and abrasion from rough wilderness terrain, to cushion your soles, and to provide good traction on rough, steep, slippery, wet, and muddy terrain.

Trekking Shoes | Climbing Shoes - Stable and Durable

Trekking shoes also called hiking or rock climbing shoes must also offer enough stability and be durable. Reliable outdoor footwear is long lasting and won’t leave you in the middle of the trail. For long-distance backpacking, hiking shoes need to be supportive and, preferably, lightweight. They also need to feel flexible and comfortable when walking. However, on rough surfaces, outdoor shoes might have to be stiffer and more supportive.
