[QUOTE="robertt, post: 70685, member: 8385"] I'm noticing that the division between shoe and boot is disappearing. Because of a failed parcel delivery, I had to buy some Columbia "mid" shoes at the last moment for my last Camino. They were higher than a shoe, lighter than a boot. Though the miracle waterproof layer gave out after five minutes (as usual), in other respects the shoes were so comfortable that I didn't bother to take them off in the evening. Because of heavy rains here in rural NSW, I've been jogging in another pair of mid-heights, very sturdy, with hiking sole and Goretex layer. They're a pricey La Sportiva model which are not really the right shape for my long-toed feet, but the fact that I can jog in them is proof that one now has a lot more choice in the kind of footwear available. I buy oversize to allow space for good aftermarket insoles and a layer of liner sock. With mids, there is less danger of loose heel in an oversize shoe, but less heat and constriction than with boots. Just a thought, Guy, and please keep us posted on this fantastic itinerary.
