Short distance? More than 20 km/day is not a short distance. You need some shoes that are super comfortable and appropriately supportive, and that have a reasonably good grip on the bottom. Have you tested your shoes for a couple of consecutive 20 km days on varied terrain? That's what matters.As it's such a short distance i was thinking of just wearing my sketchers. Would this be a good idea, or would proper walking shoes be necessary.
Hi Mark, I did the Inglés in Skechers in July a few years ago and really wished I'd taken my more supportive Merrells instead. The Skechers ended up feeling too flexible and soft. For a couple of hours each day they'd feel ok, but I really needed more firm support as the day went on. There are a lot of uphill climbs and downhill stretches and my feet slid around too much in the Skechers.I'm looking to do the Ingles at the end of August. As it's such a short distance i was thinking of just wearing my sketchers. Would this be a good idea, or would proper walking shoes be necessary.
