I cant believe I just saw Asics along side Salomons. There is no comparison. His Salomons are meant for trails, serious trails. Check out the world record time of hiking the AT. Salomon is all I have hiked with for 8 years. Trail runners for me unless the snow is deeper then 3 inches.

Interesting thoughts. Check out the hikinginrunners website.

Agree with you Andy. My boots now adorn the cupboard top in the study, a reminder of what was. Experimented with trainers but at the mo use waterproof nordic walking shoes from TKMaxx, a bargain at 19.99. A tad heavy at 400g per shoe, but very protective and robust for winter walking. Next pair will be Innov8s. I have been trying to make some gaiters that fit onto shoes in the same way my old ones slip into the slot along my boots. Any ideas, and what socks have you had success with? Cheers

My feet have a tendency of getting athelete's foot when they become wet within shoes or boots. And when I say tendency I mean almost everytime they get wet. I guess I'm predisposed to the fungus. Therefore water proof boots are my only option when hiking. Glad you have success with them.

About 6 weeks ago I bought some Miendl Burma Pro boots. They keep the feet dry and are really comfortable BUT I'm finding real stability problems. I just don't feel confident on rocky areas and the soles feel so 'clumpy' and rigid, I keep tripping. I'm wondering if such boots, as good as they are are right for me.

when you hit those rocks--your ankle turns like hell--use those running shoes to walk around camp-get some hiking boots with ankle support or you will be on a short trip
