In this video I will discuss all the footwear that I used on my Appalachian Trail thru hike. The good, the bad, and the terrible. Trail runners, hiking shoes, hiking boots, socks, and some of my suggestions about picking the right footwear for you.
I also go into depths about a my great shoe debacle when I found out the pair of shoes I started the trail with were no longer made. This resulted in a month of massive discomfort while trying to find the right footwear again. Enjoy!

As much as I love money, I would highly suggest giving yourself at least 48 hours before any purchase decision and asking yourself “Do I really need this?”.

Please note that I am not recommending any of the gear seen in any of my videos. The gear I use is what I have found works best for me at the time period I am using it. I have come to these gear choices through vast levels of trial, error, and experimenting with gear out on trail.
Gear, clothing, footwear, etc. are not one style works for all. Do as much research as you can, try out things in person if able, and make the best informed purchase decision for YOU. Do not buy gear just because it worked for, was showcased by, or recommended by someone on KZfaq
