Non-Waterproof shoes in rainy conditions?
Hey guys,
Im starting to get into Backpacking and need some gear advide. Tho I allready hiked a decent amount in my life, it was just daytrips and mostly during nice weather. For that I just hiked in my everyday shoes which were different pairs of Vans and in cold / rainy weather also Vans but MTE (Weatherproof and I think it also has gortex). Obviously they fall apart very quickly and arent comftable enough for hikes longer than 20km.
I wanna do multiple day trips and now I wonder which kinda shoes I need. The problem with waterproof trekkingshoes seems to be that you still end up with kinda wet feet because of sweat and/or too much rain (which happend with my MTE Vans). Meanwhile I can't find peace with the idea to just get comfy and airy trailrunners because then I have no protection of rain. On the other side Ill at least have dry feet in good weather conditions.
My question is: What is your experience with your boots and how do you solve this issue. Is walking in wet trailrunners worse than in waterproof boots that got wet from sweat?
