Frequently Asked Questions About Barefoot Hiking Shoes
Can you really hike in barefoot shoes? Yes – the grippy tread sole provides traction, while the flexible design allows the foot to roll naturally. A gradual transition is important: Start with shorter tours and gradually increase the distance so that your feet and calves can adapt to the new strain.
Which model is waterproof? All models with "Waterproof" or "WP" in the name – such as the Mesa Trail WP and the Scrambler Waterproof series. They keep moisture out while remaining breathable. For dry summer tours, ventilated versions like the Scrambler Low EV are sufficient.
Low or ankle-high? Low models are lighter and more agile, while ankle-high (Mid) models provide more support and protection in rugged terrain. For mixed everyday routes, the low version is usually sufficient.
