I was finally able to take some short hikes wearing these shoes. We were in Cuyahoga State Park in Ohio. It was about 90 degrees and some wet spots. This park is more on the rugged side than most that we walk in. We had to wander over rugged roots, stones, damp areas and even somewhat climbing around on big step like rocks. They performed great! My only problem was some jagged small gravel type rocks that were a bit uncomfortable to walk on. But they gripped very well hiking up and down hills of roots and big stones. A couple areas were damp with trickling water and if you weren't careful you could slip a little. It was so hot out and my feet were so hot. (I was hot all over.) I was barefoot in the shoes and they didn't feel mushy or damp. I thought for sure they would stink but they didn't! These are awesome shoes for me. I am 68 years old and not very fit but we do walk a lot. I ordered my regular size of 8.5.
