Hiking boots are heavier and more rugged than trail runners, but they keep your feet warmer by absorbing the extra moisture. Trail runners are light and have more cushioning, but they don’t provide as much protection from sharp objects. Both types of shoes will provide you with a comfortable, all-day wear. This is why it’s important to select the right pair that fits your feet properly.
It's important to match your footwear to the terrain you plan on walking on. For example, if you're planning on trekking through a soft forest path, you’ll want a hiking boot that provides ankle support and traction to prevent slipping. If you're planning on hiking on rocky terrain or trails with roots or rocks, then you’ll want trail runners.
