Shoes for Hiking in Winter

Video Transcript

"Hi. My name is Sheryl McGlochlin with crazysheryl.com and welcome to expertvillage.com. We're talking about outdoor hiking and walking in the middle of the winter. How crazy is that? But we actually love it here. But I want to talk about how important it is to keep your feet comfortable and safe. After all, it is what is going to be hitting the surface and so you want to have some very important things. For instance, this shoe is actually a sandal. I love these because it actually has excellent traction on the bottom. And I have some just really good traction when I'm walking. Another thing, because I have led over 500 hikes, I have orthotics that I have put in these sandals and I'm actually wearing sandals in the middle of the winter, but I have some little orthotics which keeps my foot arched and that way you can avoid bone spurs or problems with your feet and those are very inexpensive to get and we're going to cover some more things on your feet in the very next segment. So stay tuned."
