There are a variety of outdoor shoe brands and types on the market, which dazzles us and makes us wonder how to choose. How to choose outdoor shoes? In fact, the key to choosing outdoor shoes is the upper, fabric and sole. Outdoor shoes with low upper are light and flexible, with relatively low price, which are suitable for wearing in relatively flat mountains. If you go to some outdoor areas with complex terrain and harsh conditions, it is recommended that you choose high top outdoor shoes. High top shoes are designed to protect the ankle parts that are prone to fatigue and injury during outdoor activities, and are very suitable for uneven mountains.

How to choose outdoor shoes? The second is to look at the fabric. Nowadays, when many outdoor shoe manufacturers produce outdoor shoes, they use waterproof and breathable materials such as Gore Tex fabric between the upper and the inner liner, which has a high reputation. In particular, many outdoor brands have independently developed their 

own patented lining technology, and their functions and effects are similar to gore tex. In addition, try to choose shoes with less stitching on the upper.

How to choose outdoor shoes? The third is to look at the sole. In the outdoor, the road is rough and difficult to walk, so the hardness of the sole is naturally higher. Therefore, it is better to choose the hard rubber sole of the outsole, and the outdoor shoes with elastic rubber material of the insole will play a better supporting and protecting role. In addition, the grain of the outsole of outdoor shoes should not be too loose, so as to ensure excellent traction and increase friction.

As for the purchase of outdoor shoes, you can consider them from the three aspects of uppers, fabrics and soles. However, when buying outdoor shoes, you have to choose according to your own conditions, such as size. Because people's feet will swell during exercise, especially when going downhill, they will rush forward under the action of gravity, so when choosing outdoor shoes, you should choose slightly larger ones. So, how to choose the right size of outdoor shoes? When you try on outdoor shoes, you'd better wear thick cotton socks. When you don't tie your shoelaces, press your toes tightly against the front end of the shoes, and a finger can be put down on the heel of your foot.
