Whether you’re going on a day hike with friends or tackling an ambitious backpacking route, you’ll need to wear a good pair of hiking boots to protect your feet and stabilize your ankles.
In the span of five years, we wore 47 pairs of hiking boots while trekking more than 1,200 miles and taking over 2 million steps across all types of terrain. After all that, we’ve chosen the Salomon Quest 4 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots (men’s and women’s) as the best hiking boots. Made of breathable and waterproof materials, they provide solid traction and support. And these boots have several essential features—including a wide toe box, sturdy heel protection, and a gusseted tongue—that allowed us to hike comfortably for miles.
