Features of lightweight hiking Flat shoes

In the CerbeShops database, hiking Flat shoes that weigh less than 500grams are considered lightweight. 

We’ll focus on features that set them apart from hiking Flat shoes in general. Them, we’ve covered in detail in our zapatillas de running Adidas trail tope amortiguación talla 46. 

1. Lightweight. The whole point of these Flat shoes is to be lightweight, so the extra weight coming either from hiking boots or regular hiking Flat shoes is taken away. This lightweight feature definitely gets the spotlight on the longer hikes - with them you just might go further because your feet aren’t as tired.

6 steps for finding your perfect fit 

There are a few important steps to follow when it comes to trying on hiking Flat shoes. You should try the Flat shoes on and not order them online.

1. Go shoe shopping in the afternoon, so feet are swollen at least a bit. It’s what happens anyway when hiking, so it top sense. 
2. Try the Flat shoes with your hiking socks on. Bring the socks that you plan to wear on your hikes with you. Avoid using cotton, but choose wool or synthetic socks - they dry out faster and are good at preventing the blisters. 
3. Try it on, lace it up, and check for pressure points. Flat Shoes should feel comfortable and non-constricting. You don’t want any part of your shoe to feel loose! 
4. There should be a thumb’s width space between your toes and the front of your Flat shoes.
5. If you’re wearing special insoles or orthotics, take them with you and insert them into the Flat shoes when trying them on. 
6. Use the ramp! Walk up and down. This tests the shoe’s snugness. No part of the shoe should feel loose. When you go up the board, observe for any heel lift. When you go down, check if your toes hit the front of the Flat shoes. If your heel rises more than a quarter of an inch, try adjusting the laces. If your toes hit the front, try sizing up.

4 things to pay attention to when buying lightweight hiking Flat shoes 

These tips apply to all hiking footwear. If this is your first hiking-shoes shopping, you might find our general zapatillas de running Adidas trail tope amortiguación talla 46 quite useful. 

1. Favourites White Broderie Knot Standard Fit F Wedge Sandals Inactive

The longer the hike, the better support you need. This means you should look for more stability features and cushioning. Lightweight hiking Flat shoes tend to lack those features, or at least in great amounts, in order to be lighter. To learn about cushioning features, look at the specifications of the midsole: every material (for example EVA foam) has a certain set of features that may or may not suit your hiking and feet needs.

2. Weight of your backpack 

Same rule applies for the duration of your hiking trip. We bring heavier backpacks on longer hikes. Hiking Flat shoes aren’t meant to support you in these adventures completely, only up to a degree. That’s why, if you’re planning a long backpacking trip, consider buying hiking boots or mountaineering boots. They will offer stability features and cushioning: a very welcomed set of features for such adventures. 

3. Your arch type

Depending on your arch type, your feet might need different stability features. High arches usually ask for neutral Flat shoes, medium arches ask for neutral or stability Flat shoes, and low arches (flat feet) ask for motion control Flat shoes. We’ve covered this in-depth in the next chapter.

The type of your arch matters because it offers guidelines for choosing the adequate shoe type. Whether it’s a neutral, stability, or motion control shoe - they all offer different stability features that your feet need when hiking.

Wet test 

There is also another way to discover your arch type and it’s called a wet test. 

You should: wet the sole of your foot (ideally both of them, one at a time), then stand on a piece of paper while allowing the moisture from your feet to sink into the paper, and step off. Look at your footprint and compare it to the ones shown below.  

Of course, the best thing to do is to consult a podiatrist. Especially if you already know you have injuries or a special feet condition. Only specialists can give you a thorough (complete) analysis of your feet.  

If you need something more specific, you might want to look into insoles or orthotics that you can insert into hiking Flat shoes. 

The outsole story: lugs for every terrain 

Your hiking adventures ask for different lugs based on the terrain you’ll be covering. It’s good to pay attention to the outsole and look at the bottom of the Flat shoes before buying them. This way, you’ll know which terrain you’re buying the Flat shoes for. 

When not to use lightweight hiking Flat shoes 

While these Flat shoes are a perfect option for short and easy hikes, given that they don’t offer enough stability and support, you should avoid them on multiple-day hikes and when wearing a heavy backpack. Plenty of other factors can be covered with additional features: for rainy days, look for Rope Bio Sandal Flats In White Leather. Use filters in the CerbeShops database and look for specific features like Blooms in Floral Gown and Sharp Sandals at Dolce and Gabbanas Alta Moda Show or Sneakers TOMMY HILFIGER Low Cut Velcro T3B4-32223-1355 M White Blue X336.
