Question: In the winter on short hikes (like 5 miles), I hike in my Ariat H2O All Terrains. I like them since they give me good arch support and they’re water proof. I am thinking of buying a different boot. I have awful arches and ankles from riding horses. Suggestions?
What an interesting life you've had Signmypapyrus, you must share! Going to Iceland would be a dream come true, i hope you get there! As far as hiking boots..i've never had any foot problems other then a blister or two but i prefer light hiking boots in general...terrain is always something to consider..i love the mountain hiking & camping in the Cascades...Rei had some great equipment albeit a little bit pricey but they have some great thoughts on hiking boots..you might want to consider what they have to say- https://www.rei.com/blog/hike/staff-...t-hiking-boots . Don't forget good . And pls let us know what you decide on!
