We Are So Lame Hiking Boots

hiking boots vs sport shoes(track shoes)?

hi whats the difference between a hiking boots and sports shoes (say a pair of walking/running shoes)???

The biggest difference is in the soles & their traction, but also in how well they support your ankles & feet. In choosing hiking footwear, consider what kind of walk/hike you will be going on. Mostly hard-packed/paved trails? Then good walking shoes are just fine. If you are tackling anything off-trail with rougher terrain, then seriously consider good quality hiking boots.
