Next to your eyes, you feet are the most important. Don’t skip on weight here, pay the $ now or pay the price later.
Pros

- You will wear them for non-hiking activities
Cons
- Shoe laces need to be cords.
- So great I wear down the soles
I don’t “buy” the Ultra-Light Hiking thing; I do however invest in and choose with consequences, keeping in mind the “suffer on the trail” vs. “suffer at the campsite”. Before, I used to take off my boats and switch to my campsite sandals before river crossings, after watching my friend cross with his Asolo’s, I never wore anything else (2 pairs over 20 years).
I can tell alot about people in the non-hiking world with the shoes they are wearing. The same goes when I see people hiking, they all have different personalities, styles, and packs I cant see into. With 1 look at their shoes, unless they are wearing levies, if they have Asolos on, I dont need to second guess everything else they are talking about.
