I bought Woodland shoes that are gigantic leather boots. I bought them 4-5 years ago but i haven't unpacked them yet. I think now i will start wearing them for my trekking.
I bought woodland, used them for 1km walk for 3 days before a trek, ignored the discomfort thinking that the soals are best, and its soals got detatched on the trek day just after total walk of 13 km. I had to walk barefoot back home.
First time I've found a good professional explanation. Please advise on following issues: 1. I've woodland heavy shoes for men. The lace always comes out every few minutes & after tying it tight or normal, it still unties. It's irritating as I'd to do this all time even in girnar parikrama. Please advise what to do with the lace tying problem. 2. I'm thinking to buy Asian Everest 02 shoes. In your view, are these good for long walks in cities, jogging and trekking. Thank you.
Loved these tips! Thank you very much! ☺️ I've a small question. Doesn't the ankle support cause slight discomfort later? Also, if there's a space of a thumb, I hope it doesn't get prone to slipping and falling.? 🙈
I am a retired CPSU executive and I love tracking. I had just completed the Chardhamyatra in May and intend to go for punch Kedarnath in coming September. Thanks for the really useful information about tracking shoes which is very valuable for individuals like me. Will you kindly let me know as to what brand/ model will be the best one within a reasonable price. Thanks Awaiting for your reply V.P.Singh Ranchi
@@Sonu-mv5yj not yet sir. I have used sports shoes only during Kedarnath and Yamunotri trips but I intend to go for trekking to the maximum extent my body allows and the limits are yet to be tested and therefore I am interested in a good shoe but not very expensive ones because I don’t know the fate of my trekking ambitions. As such I was seeking your guidance .
Sir, we wish to go chardham next October 22. Do we require buy Trekking shoes for Kedarnath temple trek ? Trekking shoes are very expensive. Can we manage with sports shoed ?

Hi Dushyant, IH team. Which shoe would you suggest for doing Bali pass trek towards the end of May considering the terrain and walking on snow on the summit day.
I got Forclaz and did somewhere around 7 to 8 treks around Bangalore. But it feel very slippery on even mildly wet surfaces. A fall of 1 or 2 times has become very common. Please suggest me a slip-resistant good traction shoe brand with ankle support. Which is better? Salomon, quechua, wildcraft etc... ????
You are good Man. I was looking for this information. Thank God I didn't buy any before watching your video. I saw your recommendations and definitely I will consider those. Any specific reason you are not favoring woodland
Pls hindi me bhi jyada se jyada vidios banaye . Ye bahut zaroori he . Kyuki sabhi treker achi English nahi samjhte . Or English ke bahut se words ke meening samjhne ke liye fir Google krna padta he . Pls hindi me vlogs jaroor banaye . Dhanyavad 👍🙏
Thank you for such a useful video. Do you recommend for 1 oversized shoe for himalayn trekk? My general shoe size is Euro 39 (UK 5.5). Which size of shoe you recommend for m
Is it true that you should take 1 size bigger than your actual feet size to compensate for feet to assist whilst descending and also does a bigger size helps when wearing multiple layers of socks? #indiahikes
Hi thnx for this wonderful info. I just wanted to know while trekking in Himalayas do we need to wear Trekking shoes or boots. ?? I recently visited Woodland and got confused wether to select high ankle shoes or boots. Kindly advise 🙏
I know your Q was a year old and you may have already bought your shoes. But to anyone reading, I'd highly recommend not to go for Woodland shoes. They are good at marketing and making their shoes look rugged, but trust me you might think you are wearing shoes made of wood with motor oil soles. They are uncomfortable to wear on a trek and they have little grip once the terrain changes to loose soil, water, mud, rocks, etc. Avoid. Better get a pair of Columbia, Lafuma etc. If you are not walking on level ground, always get shoes with ankle support.
Please koi aisa shoe bataye jisme ye saare features ho 1)Anti puncture ya jisme khil ya kaante na ghus ppaye kyuki rubber gum sole me kaante ghus jate hai. 2) waterproof 3)good ankle support 4)good insole cushioning comfort 5)Breathable ho jisse smell ya odour na aaye. Summer me wear kar sake. Size 11.5 to 12
Very informative video. Looking to your four tips mentioned in this video, kindly suggest me the name of shoes company which is manufacturing the shoes as per your suggestion.

Hi, I have recently bough a quechua trekking shoes which has a very hard sole and I am not getting any grip on rocky path. I cant no invest in buying new shoes soon. Can you provide any DIY tips to add more grip to my existing shoes?
I recently went on my first trek ( chandrashilla and tungnath) but while descend my toenail was keep pressing on shoe tip and it was very painful with every step.Do I need to change the shoe or buy one size bigger?
Two other things that might help. A good insole with cushion + grip (arch support), so your foot does not slide forward inside the shoe while descending. Then, tighten the shoe properly. Not just at the end where you pull the laces, but also at the starting rung (nearest to the toes). Loosen the laces, then start pulling the laces tightly from the start, then tighten the ends to tie a know. Use the excess loops of laces to loop through the lace hooks on the ankle so they dont loosen. Worked fantastic for me. I have toe nail problems despite clipping them properly. If you have in-grown toe nails, maybe going to a doctor just before a trek to have the ends trimmed may help.

Please add one more tip, NEVER bring a new shoe to a trek. First use it for few days at your home to avoid blisters.
Most important 🤙🏻
Facts ☝👍👍👍
How many days it should be used in home before going to trek if you have only some days in hand?
Thanks for making video in hindi .
On the shoe size, some cold weather treks may require double socks to be worn and as a result the shoe size should have enough room for this wear.
Which cold weather treks..like?
Thanks for making videos in Hindi. Very good information. Want more such videos on selecting sleeping bags and tents...
THANKS IN ADVANCE

I bought Woodland shoes that are gigantic leather boots. I bought them 4-5 years ago but i haven't unpacked them yet. I think now i will start wearing them for my trekking.
keep them packed , dont even take them to a trek - you will regert big time if you do - Woodland is that bad .
@@dimitrz2000 I agree. Took woodland on kedarkantha trek. I kept slipping on icy & muddy trails. Traction was very bad.
woodland feels like stones tied to your feets . i regret buying them
I bought woodland, used them for 1km walk for 3 days before a trek, ignored the discomfort thinking that the soals are best, and its soals got detatched on the trek day just after total walk of 13 km. I had to walk barefoot back home.

Hi,
Please use double knot, that is the simplest yet most effective knot for trekking
