Thanks! More hikers are choosing to ditch the clunky old boots in favor of lightweight, breathable hiking shoes. The lightweight hikers can be your best friend on the trail, especially for thru-hiking, but are they suitable for you? I test the new TR1 Mesh shoe from Astral, who are known for making excellent water shoes.
