When wandering, I opt for waterproof sneakers. I'm not too fond of mocassins because they don't look good on my feet. My mom told me to buy boots, but I don't like them either. They feel heavy and make my feet look big. When we first went into the woods, I realized that I had to get waterproof sneakers. I couldn't find anything that would interest me anywhere, neither online nor in malls, so I asked my sister to help me. Together we found forstepstyle.com, and I was ready to go exploring. It would be best if you also chose shoes to feel comfortable and light.

I use either runners or ex work boots depending on the terrain and season (snakes, water etc.). I would like to try moccasins one day, but I hunt a lot of rocky/prickly terrain, and like WB I'm a degenerate (though thoroughly unmodern  ) man. A family friend used to go shoe less year round here and mowed grass for a living for part of his life - he had soles like rock hard leather!

Ankle supporting boots can be handy if you're carrying a lot of weight and/or hiking in rough terrain, but since beginning my Alexander Technique journey, I've found that better (or proper) body use and some forethought will prevent a lot of injuries.
