Top 5 footwear for outdoor adventure 

When it comes to choosing the right footwear for any outdoor adventure, it can be challenging since there are so many options available on the market. To simplify the process and narrow down the choices, there are a few things to keep in consideration before choosing the boots.

Firstly, the material of the boot is a vital part in choosing the right boots for you. There are boots out there that are made of Nylon fabric, Faux Leather, Full Grain Leather, Rubber, or a combination of them. It is important to know what you want from the boots and pick the right combination of material.

Secondly, the sole of the boots is also very important. Generally, the soles of boots are composed with a structure of insole, midsole, and outsole layered together. For insoles, you should look for ones that has good moisture management features and some support, so it will not hold too much moisture at the bottom of your feet. Midsoles on the boots are suppose to provide support and cushion, and with well-cushioned soles your feet and legs will fight against fatigue and sore for a longer period of time when you are on adventure. Outsoles provides traction, which is a key factor to identify when choosing your boots. You will want the outsoles to have a lot of traction so the boots will not slip even on wet or muddy surface. Durability is also very important for the outsoles, and abrasion resistance is definitely one of the most important features for the outsoles of boots.

Thirdly, waterproof capability is also something you should consider when purchasing a pair of boots. If you’re expecting exposure to rain or submerging into shallow water you might want something with Gore-Tex membrane. Or, if you prioritize breathability and heat management over others, then something without such waterproof treatment would be the choice for you.
Finally, once you identify all your needs, the weight of the boot is a key factor to consider. It is ideal to pick out the lightest boots possible that meets your requirement, since you do not want the weight of the footwear to drain your stamina on your adventures.
