Are you going to walk in town, on well-groomed or rough trails? Will there be steep slopes, rocks? Do you plan to only hike for one day or less? The type of shoe recommended for a person who makes day hikes on well-groomed trails is not the same as taking part in long walks and carrying a heavy backpack.

There are three types of shoes or boots: light hiking shoes suitable for walks in urban parks and for hiking on well-groomed or slightly uneven trails, short hiking boots ideal for mountain excursions on rugged trails, and long hiking boots that meet the needs of people who go on an expedition with a heavy backpack for several days, or trekking in high mountains.
