Wrapt Waterproof Hiking Sneaker (Women)

Love the way these shoes look and I do wear them a lot. But I will be choosy about when I wear them. I got them for a European trip where I would be in cities and on some hikes. You do have to ease into the 'barefoot' feel of the sole and thick socks help. They are not the best solution on wet city streets or wet stones along the coast. I found myself slipping on slick stone sidewalks or rocks, and feeling every brick in a cobblestone street. They work fine on a gritty trail or fairly even pavement. Twenty minutes on a walking tour in the the rain proved that they were not waterproof, as advertised. The section in front of the laces was soaked. Luckily, they dried out overnight.

Love love love this shoes! I’ve been wearing the Trail Glove for years for trail running and the gym, but wanted something that I could wear casually while running errands etc. These are perfect for that elevated casual look, last all day comfort, and happy feet. The soles are very grippy/aggressive and you don’t have to worry about slipping. The arch is also pretty stiff and aggressive at first but after a couple of days of wear it became comfortable. I’ve had these about a month with a handful of wears and there’s no signs that I’ve worn them at all. Seems to be great quality and should last for years.

After wearing zero support shoes for almost 10 years, I was anxious about switching to something with support and structure. But WOW. These are truly phenomenal. They are the right balance of comfort and support without restricting the nature movement and shape of my feet. Would buy again.
