[QUOTE="Rambler, post: 193333, member: 2038"] So I am an advocate for Goretex shoes, if you are walking in the time it is likely to rain. Summer months tend to be light on rain and would justify ventilated shoes, but I am using Lowa Goretex shoes for my June Camino. Too many times, I have seen hikers have blister problems because their feet and shoes were soaked. I prefer to forgo the blisters and have a slightly warmer foot. Here are a couple of suggestions for keeping the interior of shoes from holding moisture: [LIST] [*]Pull the insoles out each time you remove the shoes to let them both air out. This ensures that any dampness under the insole gets out. [*]If the shoe interior is really wet, crumple up newspapers and stick them in the shoes, replacing every hour or until the paper is saturated. This dries them much quicker. [*]A small container of foot powder liberally applied each day helps keep down the moisture [/LIST] Rambler [/QUOTE]
