Hey I'm looking for a light weight hicking shoe for day hikes hanging around the camp site and everyday stuff, any suggestions? I saw the teva churn anyone have experience with this shoe?

Bought a pair of Kaepas back in highschool that I carried/wore for ages. Real, true canvas and rubber sneakers. Loved those shoes. Wore them around camp, hiked in them, waded etc til they just plum wore out. Canvas wore through, hole in the left sole etc. When I looked for another pair a decade back, I found out they don't make real sneakers anymore....they make hightech crap cheerleader shoes. Jeez. Been really tempted to buy a pair of classic Converse's and try them but they're just too pretty.

Get some sneakers.

I got a pair of hiking shoes w the Merrell sole, bought at Sports authority I think, about $90 bucks!

I hike in Salomon Trail Running shoes. Not just for day hikes and around camp. I have worn my trail runners for the entire John Muir Trail (3 weeks). I used flip flops for camp shoes. Obviously, I am into ultralight backpacking. My pack without food and water weighs in at 16 lbs. If you carry a really heavy pack you may need to have boots and camp shoes.

I use the solomon trail running shoe as well. I love love love the comfort and light weight of them.

I'm a big fan of any hiking shoes that Merrell makes. I've been wearing the same pair for about a year now and they still feel great.

I've been wearing Solomon's on and off for 15 years with no complaints. I recently tried a pair of Keen's. So far, they have exceeded my expectations.
