A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - On Cloudsurfer Trail 7/10 These get the job done. I have found that a typical hiking shoe does not have any sort of cushion so if you prefer a little bit of cushion in your hiking shoes these are a great option to try. I wore these when I hiked Half-Dome and I found they had great traction and for someone as clumsy as me, that was a godsend. I will say my feet felt like they were going to fall off after but I don’t think any shoe will save you from a hike that strenuous. There is also a weird curve in the front of the shoe that is not uncomfortable, but weird. A plus is they took little to no time to break in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/537d3a76-de77-4475-af46-44e26ca63b55/Screenshot+2025-01-22+at+5.20.55%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog Home - A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - Nike Pegasus Trail 4 GORE-TEX 8.5/10 I don’t have any complaints about these. I mentioned before that I don’t like any shoe with ankle support, but these, in particular, are bendable and soft, so they move with you rather than restrict you. They have little cushioning, but they are soft in a way I can’t explain. They lasted me quite a while and had the best traction of any shoe I’ve tried. I would repurchase these. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/ea1dd10b-b924-425b-b767-7e2c2f90cae9/Screenshot+2025-01-22+at+5.34.13%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog Home - A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v14 9.5/10 These are an honorable mention because they are not hiking shoes—they’re running shoes. But they are some of the greatest shoes I’ve ever owned. They feel like I’m walking on a cloud, and if you are a runner, I recommend trying these out. I wear them on paved trails when I go on my daily walks and for everyday recreational use. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/535bdb35-d03e-47fa-a8e4-addf1e71ca33/Screenshot+2025-01-22+at+5.38.42%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog Home - A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - HOKA Anacapa Breeze Low 4/10 I don’t like to be a hater, but I felt like I needed to be honest about these shoes. The soles were tough. Many people prefer a stiff sole for hiking, and honestly, I was able to look past that, too. What did bother me was the traction. These are technically the only hiking shoes I have on my list; the others are considered “trail” shoes. With that being said I expected them to have the best grip. I wore these when I hiked Glacier Point and the trail is paved with dirt for most of it. My feet slipped out from under me more times than I can count, causing an injury to resurface in my knee that lasted over a month. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/c7a246dc-9fcc-4b2e-8b9c-67459ab2f5dc/Screenshot+2025-01-22+at+6.03.04%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog Home - A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - Teva Hurricane XLT2 Sandals 8/10 Not a shoe but a sandal. A great option for hiking as well. I noticed a lot of people wearing these on the way back down from Half-Dome and I thought it was genius. I tend to wear sandals like these when camping and doing light hikes but I will consider packing these for my next big hike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/b3c6df8e-177a-4790-8238-af6fa5a2eb8f/Screenshot+2025-01-28+at+8.31.06%E2%80%AFPM.jpg Blog Home - A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - I prefer a loose pair of running shorts for bottoms, similar to the Nike ones in this photo. In my opinion, you can never have too many of these. Leggings tend to feel uncomfortable on me in the heat so a free-flowing pair of shorts will usually do the trick. Hiking pants are a good option. Some brands offer zip-away pants that let you remove a layer as you go until you end up with shorts. I’ve never owned any, but if you plan to do a hike where the weather changes dramatically throughout the day, I’ve heard good things about them. You can find different options at REI or maybe check out your local gear shops. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/eb630c63-98f2-4fa1-ab9e-02634fd19ce2/IMG_4013.jpeg Blog Home - A Day on the Trails: My Favorite Hiking Attire - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/developing-my-own-personal-style-nkt6t monthly 0.5 2025-03-22 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/the-ghost-of-fashions-past-ctxhl monthly 0.5 2025-10-15 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/welcome monthly 0.5 2025-03-22 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Hotels monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Travel monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Runway monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Fashion monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Let%27s+Get+Personal monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Style monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Lifestyle monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Diary monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/History monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Food+%26+Drink monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Feature monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/category/Profile monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Water monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Walk monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Koh+Samui monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Sharks monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/French+Doors monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Heels monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Journal monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Black monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Thailand monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Beach monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/UK monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Dinner monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Ocean monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Lush monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Swimming monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Pool monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Alec+Eiffel monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/France monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Croatia monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Bourdeaux monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Cafe monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Balcony monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Salmon monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/EED monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Eiffel+Tower monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Thoughts monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Lunch monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Spain monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Terrace monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Yellow monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/OOTD monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/London monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Denim monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Paris monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/bloghome/tag/Paradise monthly 0.5 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/about daily 0.75 2025-10-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/670f285b0e63da696524dec3/1d79b009-a848-412b-aa02-c181ae6eb724/IMG_4666.jpeg https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/termsconditions-1 daily 0.75 2025-11-09 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/search-page daily 0.75 2025-03-26 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/shop-my-favorites daily 0.75 2025-03-26 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/profiles daily 0.75 2025-03-26 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/travel daily 0.75 2025-03-26 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/fashion daily 0.75 2025-04-10 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/history daily 0.75 2025-03-26 https://www.thetamarahdiaries.com/lets-get-personal daily 0.75 2025-03-26
