My Current Footwear for the Appalachian Trail

Footwear is tricky and absolutely comes down to personal preference. I personally prefer boots for the ankle support. Finding a boot that is lite enough for a thru hike can prove problematic. The Crispi Summit GTX is an amazing boot!! Vibram sole for impact absorption for those numerous downhills is wonderful. Water resistant suede and gortex to help with the common rainy days. It’s a great boot!!!! My trail shoe of choice is the Brooks trail runners and I may switch to those as the weather warms up. It’s important you choose footwear that works for you! Wear it in similar terrain and make sure they will work. Happy trails!
