Looking for good hiking boots?
Feb 26, 2009 by jmbatule | Posted in Other - Outdoor Recreation
I'm in search of a good pair of hiking boots. Every winter, I go car camping with my buddies so I need something warm and waterproof for around the campsite and comfortable enough for 4 - 8 mile hikes. I also go hiking and backpacking the rest of the year so I'd like something sturdy and comfortable.
Am I asking too much out of one pair of boots? Or should I be looking at two separate pairs to fit my year round needs? FYI, I'm about 6'4" 220 lbs. with a size 13 foot.
Thanks in advance for your input.
Find a RED WING shoe store, they will have what you need and you will be happy that a boot you buy today from there will last you well over the next five-eight years.
