Trekking shoes for every type of terrain: which one is right for you?

When buying trekking shoes, it is very important that you take into account the type of terrain on which your routes take place because the characteristics you should look for when choosing the right footwear will depend on this.

• For rocky and mountainous terrain choose thick rubber soles that offer you good grip and traction on uneven and slippery surfaces. If possible, choose trekking shoes with reinforced toes to have greater protection for your feet and, also, models with high ankle support that give you stability and help you avoid sprains and possible injuries.
• On forest and dirt trails you can use a sole of moderate stiffness and, preferably, with studs, which will give you more traction if you find mud on your way. Choose slightly more flexible footwear to walk with greater comfort and water resistant materials are always the best option for walking on puddles.
• With sandy or desert terrain, choose cleats spaced out on the sole to prevent sand from accumulating. The lightweight materials will allow you to minimize fatigue if the walk is long and the breathable fabrics will help you to better ventilate your foot to keep it cool.
• In icy or snowy areas, the key thing is good traction to prevent slipping, as well as good insulation to keep your feet warm.

Remember that you must also adapt your footwear to the time of year and that in summer certain terrains may allow you the option of using sandals for trekking, which are cooler than fully closed footwear.

Trekking shoes for men vs. women: Key differences

Although, broadly speaking, trekking shoes for men and women must meet some common basic characteristics, it is possible to find certain differences between what is ideal for both of them:

• In general, women's sneakers are usually narrower, especially in the heel and midfoot area, to adapt to thinner and less bulky feet. Conversely, men's shoes are generally wider and bulkier to accommodate larger and wider feet.
• Since women tend to weigh less than men, their sneakers usually have slightly softer cushioning. This helps to provide adequate support without being excessively stiff, improving comfort while walking.
• Although functionally similar, women's trekking shoes can have different designs and colors to men's trekking shoes. However, you can find many unisex models.

These differences can influence comfort and performance, but they also have to do with the tastes of each person.
