Nowadays, when consumers purchase outdoor shoes, many consumers attach great importance to the quality of shoes. After all, the cost of a pair of outdoor shoes is not a small sum. In outdoor hiking, a pair of quality shoes is of vital importance. . This leads to a problem: the classification and use of outdoor shoes. As far as outdoor shoes are concerned, their functional classification can be roughly divided into five major series:
1. Alpine series: (Also able to weigh hiking boots)
This series of boots is designed for Dengxue Mountain. The sole usually uses Vibram or Skywalk outsole, and is lined with steel plate. It has strong impact resistance, can hold crampons, and has a high boots design. Generally it is more than 20cm. The use of hard plastic resin or thick leather, sheepskin sewing, lined with warm shoe covers, adapt to complex snow, ice, rock mixed terrain, can effectively protect your feet.
2, low mountain series: (also can be weighed climbing shoes)
The purpose of this type of shoes is to use peaks below 6,000 meters above sea level to climb ice walls or snow and ice mixed rock walls. The outer sole is lined with a wear resistant rubber (Vibram or Skywalk) with a large bottom of organic carbon plates. The soles are very hard and resistant. The impact is very strong, there is enough support force when climbing, the upper is thickened (3.0mm above) the entire leather or sheepskin sewing, in order to enhance the waterproof and moisture permeability effect, commonly used GoreTex or SympaTex lining, sandwich insulation layer . The height of the upper is usually 15cm or more, which can effectively protect the feet from harm reduction under complex terrain conditions. Some models are equipped with crampons, and there are no fixed-structure available bundled crampons. Lighter than heavy hiking boots, it is more comfortable to remove crampons than heavy hiking boots.
3, through the series: (also known as medium-sized hiking shoes)
The series is designed for low-mountain, canyon, desert, Gobi and other more complex terrain to adapt to long-distance weight-bearing trekking. The structural characteristics of this type of shoes also belong to high-top shoes, the height of the upper is usually 13-15cm, with strong support, can effectively protect the cheekbones to reduce injury. The outsole is made of wear-resistant rubber. Some well-known brands also design nylon plate support between the big bottom and the midsole to increase the hardness of the sole, which not only effectively prevents deformation of the sole, but also enhances impact resistance. Uppers often use medium-thick layers of suede, sheepskin, or leather uppers, and Dubanese ultra-strength wear-resistant Cordura fabrics, which are lighter and more flexible than alpine and low mountains. . In order to solve the waterproof problem, most of the models use GoreTex material for lining, and some use oil leather for waterproofing. Such shoes can walk on the water below the cheekbones or in the rain.
4, hiking series:
Trekking series is more commonly used in outdoor sports. The objective of the design is to provide lighter and lighter walking on short and medium distances. It is suitable for relatively gentle mountain, jungle, general outing or camping activities. The design features of these shoes are less than 12cm in the upper and have an ankle protection structure. Outsole is made of wear-resistant rubber, microporous foam in the bottom and double-layer encryption rubber. The high-end brand has a large bottom plastic plate sandwich, which has good impact resistance and shock absorption. The upper has full leather, leather or leather Mixed material. Some models have GoreTex lining, and some models are not waterproof. The advantages of medium shoes are light, soft, comfortable and breathable. Walking in an uncomplicated terrain, the middle shoes should be better than high shoes.

Wear-resistant rubber outsole allows you to never have to worry about the wear of the soles will affect the use, flexible midsole can reduce the impact of the ground on the foot, but also reduce the weight of the pressure on the foot, high-end short shoes are usually also With a keel design, it can effectively prevent deformation of soles and enhance support. The tight upper design makes you feel as if the shoe is on your feet. These shoes are often equipped with leather uppers or nylon meshes, and are therefore lighter in texture. A pair of shoes is often less than 400g, and is very flexible. Currently in some European and American countries, this series is the most commonly used and best-selling variety.

For example, X-SOCKS socks, which are popular in foreign countries, are classified in very small categories. The main categories are the following: Motors,
Bicycle series, mountain bike series, running series, hiking series, special sports series, golf series, winter sports series, leisure series, business series. Different designs are suitable for wearing in different environments, but most of the domestic outdoor enthusiasts do not pay much attention to the different functions of various series.
