[QUOTE="LTfit, post: 70431, member: 8594"] Hi Elfdoucette, I also have Merrill walking shoes. Like you I first got the Gortex version but also found that my foot sweat even with 1 pair of hiking socks during long hikes of 20+ km (plus a few little blisters). As I will be walking in July I bought a non-Gortex Merrill shoe which is much lighter and cooler. On the negative side, the newer version is less stable and get pain in my left forefoot :( .Tomorrow hope to go on a longer walk and decide which shoe to take on my upcoming Camino. Not sure how the weather will be for you in Sept. on the Francés. But if it is anything like I had last year July than Gortex is not necessary. Good luck and cheers, LT [/QUOTE]
