I think I am looking for a Boot / Shoe that doesnt exist:
I am looking for a boot/shoe for hiking up "trekking" peaks up to 4000-6000m peaks max that are not all snow with long approaches that is:
-waterproof but breathable
-lightweight
-tough/durable
-has grippy rubber thats good on rock / wet surfaces but still sheds mud decently and performs well on loose terrain
-good torsional stiffness but has nice fore-aft give
-good ankle support/protection
-really good arch support and generally good foot support but still has room in the toe box area
-provides good cushioning for comfort
-can take a crampon and is decent with it (i am NOT looking to climbing vertical ice)
any ideas?
