Advice For Buying Walking Shoes – Boots You go into an air conditioned shoe store – the sales person measures your foot, width and length, says your size, then brings you a walking shoe or boot.

You then set off on a long hike-you are in trouble!!! Big Time.
Price. “You get what you pay for!” As a rule, the most expensive is best. Ha! Some of you didn’t like to hear that but to me it is true. Get the best. Look around at all the podiatrists and sports injury specialists and know people ruin their feet. In a foot there are 26 bones. All are connected by tissue ligaments and muscle.
Soles. I have had good, soft sole comfortable shoes that just do not last! One popular brand I have worn last only 150 miles on the road and they cannot be resoled. Other shoes last a long time but are just hard and without good traction and inflexible.
