Not all women like shoes as the stereo type would have us all think. But I do know most women do appreciate good shoes that let them achieve top performance. So for Mother’s Day this year, find your mom the shoe that will fit her lifestyle and activities that she loves to do. We have included 11 shoes and 5 different socks that we believe are winners in this guide, but as we all know there are hundreds more out there to pick. As Mother’s Day gets closer we hope that these gift guides will be able to help you show your mom or wife just how much you love her.
Now that spring is here in full force, we thought it was time to post our picks for spring 2012 hiking shoes. When out hiking this spring you need to be prepared for different types of weather, from snow to dry and hot. Most likely if you are hiking in the mountains you encounter spring runoff, which means mud. With those things in mind, we have gathered shoes that are waterproof to thwart of the snow and water and shoes that are breathable to wear when it is hot and dry. Included are men’s specific shoes, shoes that are available in both men’s and women’s and the last 6 shoes are women’s specific. Look the guide over and then give a pair or two a try. Happy feet make a happy trip.
We thought we would post this gear guide towards the first of spring in order to help us get out and start training earlier. This gear guide is packed with 11 new shoes for 2012. The first 9 are designed for running trails and the last 3 are for the road. We know shoes are a personal thing to many people, so we suggest that you look over the guide and find what shoes might work for you, then head over to your local running company and try them on. We also tried to indicate if the style were men’s only, women’s only or both.
Do you love wearing flip flops? Do you hate freezing feet when going out in the winter in flip flops? Well, Teva might have a solution for you. With super light EVA foam as a sole and a canvas upper, the Mush Frio Lace Canvas is a lightweight shoe that will protect your foot from some of the cooler days.
Sperry has a great variety of shoes on the market. The first pair I had was the SON-R Bungee. It is a fantastic shoe that works well for hiking, but made specifically for being durable and comfortable going in and out of water. I used them for many months taking them canoeing, kayaking, and hiking. However, the one complaint I did have was they can get rocks in them from openings in the side of the shoes.
