- #hiking #hikingshoes #hikingboots Best hiking boots for women and men. Best hiking shoes for 2020. Footwear is probably one of the most important items when hiking, going on backpacking trips, or really doing any outdoor adventurers. The wrong hiking boots can lead to blisters, sore feet, or just an uncomfortable experience overall. We recommend and review the top two hiking boot brands based on 20 years of research with military Special Operations soldiers is some of the most harsh and austere conditions plus our own personal opinions after using these brands for over 10 years now. This is not a paid sponsorship or advertisement but an unbiased opinion based on research and personal use. While there are a lot of options when it comes to boots, we focus on two brands that will handle the worst-case scenario as well as the best everyday use for long distances. We do not discuss trail runners at all but instead focus on ankle support, stability, durability, and overall protection.

✅ Who We Are
We’re Crazy Empty Nest, after raising two kids and working all over the world, we had to decide to stay in our full-time corporate jobs for another 20+ years of stress and drudgery...or take the road less traveled and retire early leaving our comfort zones for adventure, excitement, and simplicity.
We didn’t want to fall into a routine of thinking our best days are behind us, so we’re here to show you that there is more than just fading away into the sunset.
We decided to take the road less traveled.
We recently renovated a vintage RV to live in full time while we make the final push for early retirement in 2021. We’ve also been overlanding all over the U.S. during the past 4 years, and plan to start traveling internationally again when health conditions permit. Spending a few months in both Thailand and Belize are on our forecast as well as possible tackling the Pan American Highway.
We have decided to live our lives with more freedom and options and we really want to give you hope that, whatever your situation, the best is yet to come.
Along this journey, learn from our adventures and mistakes as well as the best tips for simplifying your life, saving time and money, and get inspired by our adventures as we learn together what is possible on this road less traveled.
Great review. My biggest difficulty is finding size 15 options. Most manufacturers stop at 13 or 14. Would love a review for the bigger foot club.
Great video... I've bought many high end boots that have hurt my feet, etc... Just ordered another pair, hope they work out. Every foot is different, one for all... all for one just does not work. Great brands and boots you picked.
Absolutely, the best boot is the one that's best for your feet! Thanks for the comment! - Jenny and Lance
Thanks for sharing such great information!
Thank you so much for an honest review. Fugitive GTS it is!
Thank you guys so much! I'm so glad I stumbled across you guys. Going to Iceland and Scotland next year and we will be hiking the fjords!!!!! And of course I have zero clue as to what the terrain will be like....except wet
Hi Tracy - we're so glad this helped you! Iceland and Scotland sounds like an mazing time!
This video was so honest and helpful!
Thank you guys 🤍
Hi Marlene - thank you, this is only our honest opinions but we have not had any issues with the two brands we discussed in the video.
Quality video! Love how you tie in your military experience to figure out which product works best for you. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks guys! Love your adventures too!
So beautiful! Thanks for sharing
So glad you liked it! Thanks!
new hiker here. thank. you guys
Great info. Thank you!!!!!
Thank you Kathy! Glad you liked it.
I really want to visit Torres del Paine (I'm from Chile, but never been to Torres) and I'm looking for a good pair of boots for that adventure. Thank you!
We've never been to Torres either but have heard it's amazing! Glad this video helped you, good luck! - Jenny and Lance
Great dad joke lol. Thanks, y'all. :)
We knew you'd catch that one Leah! :)
I enjoyed this. Thank you. I can’t help but wonder, if you’ve got a boot that you have tested under arctic winter conditions.
Hi Daphne - sorry, this is not our area. We grew up in an area with subfreezing temps and used to get boots called mukluks and bunny boots but we're not sure on the newest technology for arctic conditions. - Jenny and Lance
@@CrazyEmptyNest : Those are already My faves, too, for my area; tyvk 4 getting back to me. :)
I am need of new boots. I loved my Asolo Strykers. They are loosing the bottom after a decade. I am thinking about ordering Asolo Falcons. Are Asolo all based on the same foot shape ? My old one fit so well.
tozo is my brand
Best hiking boots are the ones that fit. At 200$ and above quality isnt an issue.
We witnessed Merrell's fall apart in less than 2 weeks in rugged terrain.
Best hiking boots for women and men. Best hiking shoes for 2020 based on 20 years of field testing. If you are looking for all leather boots that you can resole instead of the modern construction boots we show you in this video, we also highly recommend Meindl and Lowa all leather boots. Stay tuned for a future video testing out trail runners.
Couldn't understand the name of the boots their voices muddle over too much when they actually mention the boots. I which they written or spell the name sub tittle or somewhere.
Asolo Fugitive GTX and Salomon X Ultra Mid.
