Hiking boot that works for casual wear as well?

Of course, since everyone here seems to wear the same shoes, I looked at AE. They have the Rockies high line but is that actually a good hiking boot?

In agreement with K1. Salomon is bomb. It’s what I wear hiking and I’ve done a few 14ers in them. Would recommend

If you consider walking on relatively flat ground in the woods a hike, sure, go for something stylish. If you are actually trying to hike some mountains (4000ers east coast, 10k+ West coast), you gotta go with Salomon or Merrill. Actual outdoorsy people will judge you for “stylish” hiking boots

Danner makes a highly functional boot. I wore them on countless road marches and in the field back when I was in the Army. You can purchase Danner products with confidence.

Also, LL Bean has a cool alpine hiking boot but I know very little about LL Bean and if it's just a crap catalogue company or if it’s legit

Also. LL Bean is an amazing company. They make incredible products and they're gauranteed for life

I have several pairs of Salomons. I'm always in the Rockies or similar hiking. Get these if you'll be doing hiking.

Forsake- I think you’ll like these
Danner mountain 400.

Danner for sure

* mountain 600

Danner looks great. Legitimately functional boot? Comfortable for long hikes?

I recognize Solomon is a great brand and I get that form won’t necessarily follow functionality. They just look like I’d be storming an alien spaceship or something

Love Salomon for hiking, been wearing them for 10+ years now and have climbed Half Dome and done 20+ mile hikes with them with very little foot soreness.

Thanks all. I’ve read that Danners are actually legit for hiking
