Choosing the right footwear for your outdoor adventures can be daunting. With so many different types of footwear hitting the market, it can be hard to know if you're making the best choice. Our feet are one of the most complex parts of our body, and every pair of feet is unique. That’s why it’s so important to choose a pair of shoes that work for your specific feet, and we’ll show you exactly how to do this using our tried and tested techniques.

As we know all too well, even with the right footwear, the conditions can conspire against you. It's important to understand what's happening with your feet and how to keep them healthy so you can continue your trip. We’ll show you how to treat common foot problems (blisters be-gone!) and how to keep your feet in tip-top condition both on and off the trail.


In this Experience Series event, we’re revealing our best-kept footwear and footcare secrets. With over 90 years’ experience fitting customers (and ourselves) in the best hiking footwear, our knowledgeable team will make sure you leave feeling confident to choose the right pair of shoes for you.
