*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Camping is an incredibly popular recreation activity for a number of reasons. For some it is fun and relaxing to get away from the grind of civilization and get out into the wilderness. For others it is the challenge of living off the land, or simply spending time with friends or family without distractions.
Fishing, hunting, canoeing, and sightseeing are just a few of the activities that accompany many camping trips. However, there is one camping activity that is almost universal, and that is spending time on your feet. Whether you are hiking the trails or simply hiking from your tent to the car, a good pair of campers shoes are an invaluable asset when you are spending time with nature.
All campers shoes are not created equal so prospective campers need to be careful when shopping for camping footwear. The first thing to consider is the kind of activities will you be doing. If you are simply going to be walking around the campsite then lightweight, comfortable shoes might be preferable. You might also consider a shoe that is a high or mid-rise style. The higher top will not only help keep dirt and sand out of your shoes, it provides additional stability that is useful on uneven ground.
If long hikes along riverbeds or streams are on your agenda, then remember this important fact: Water resistant does not mean waterproof! Water resistant means exactly that; the shoe will resist water, but it is not impervious to water. Everyone knows the discomfort, blisters, and cold that wet feet can cause, so keep that in mind when selecting campers shoes. If there is a high probability that your feet could become submerged then it might be in your best interest to look for campers shoes that are completely waterproof.
If you are going to be walking along rocky trails, or climbing along jagged rock surfaces, then campers shoe with a steel shank might best suit your needs. Rocks can abuse your feet if the only thing separating them is a soft rubber sole. A steel shank will absorb that energy and protect your feet, keeping you comfortable and pain free.
If, on the other hand, you plan to walk along well marked and well traveled paths and a rocky trail is not in the forecast, then campers shoes with a steel shank might not be worth the extra money, or more importantly, the extra weight. Instead you might opt for a lightweight shoe that will be lighter on your wallet and your feet.
When you have decided on the type of campers shoes you will need, make sure you go to a dealer of quality footwear. Cheap, low quality, hiking and campers shoes are less likely to perform up to your expectations and there is no way to replace them when you are out in the wilderness! Also be sure to have your feet accurately measured to ensure the best possible fit. When you have a pair of campers shoes that are of high quality, proper size, and styled to suit your activities, your time on the trails or around the campfire will be more enjoyable!
