This edition of the Superbook has many previous content and some new parts. (This is a long story.) Xiao Bian strives to bring together all the things related to the outer shoes so that everyone can use the article “instrumentalized.â€
Before you read it, you must first understand this: In this article will be mentioned a lot of fabrics and accessories rankings, in order to facilitate newcomers to read here first (LaoZi can directly skip this part).
What is GTX: Gore-tex patent fabrics currently occupy a monopoly Gore Corporation. The GTX's three-letter reputation is so big that even Auntie, who sells tea eggs on the street, knows. This is a kind of fabric with built-in pore-permeable breathable film of ePTFE. Nanotechnology makes small holes larger than water vapor molecules, but smaller than liquid water molecules. It can be imagined that it has excellent waterproof and breathable features. It is almost 70 on the market. More than % of professional Jackets are just different versions of GTX. GTX fabrics are divided into four types, GTX Performance (reinstall low-end), GTX paclite (light-loaded low-end), GTX Pro (reload high-end), GTX Active (light-loaded high-end).

What is Vibram sole: vibram is a famous rubber manufacturer in Italy, and the Chinese name is Qualcomm. Its rubber specially designed for soles has been widely used by many shoe manufacturers in the world for its excellent abrasion resistance, good slip resistance, and uniform texture. Recognition.
The first part: the type of shoes
1ã€Hiking shoes Trailshoes
It is mainly designed for short-distance trekkers. It takes only one to two days outside the country and is suitable for general outdoor camping. The mountain is not very complicated. The design features of these shoes are relatively comfortable, soft, and good in air permeability, but the rigidity of the sole is hard. Wear resistance is the lowest among hiking shoes. The uppers of these shoes are made of sheepskin and chemical fiber synthetic materials. The shoe soles are made of plastic materials. The shoes are made of chemical fiber materials with certain permeability, and the uppers are lower. It is suitable for hiking activities with a flat environment, a day or so, and light weight. Even if it is active in the mountains, the terrain environment has a clear and flat path. Because GOTE-TEX fabrics are used in a wide range of applications, even in hiking shoes, in wet weather, wearers are allowed to keep their feet dry and comfortable in a wet environment.
2, hiking shoes Hikingboots
For pure mountain activities of two days or more, and even the mountainous region below the snow line in the active area, some brands of products can even engage in mountain activities in the snow-line region, and even in bad weather, they perform very well. Since it is mainly designed for trekkers of medium distance, there are more mountaineering gear to carry than climbers. These boots have good rigidity and wear resistance, but these boots are basically designed for short to medium distances. The mountain type is not very complicated. Boots of these boots are made of sheepskin or thin leather. The bottom of the boot is made of hard plastic material or Vibram. The boots are made of soft sheepskin or Gore-Tex. The targets are of medium height.
3, reloading Trekking hiking shoes
It is designed for long-distance trekkers, and the active environment area must be a mixture of steep slopes, multiple gravels, and ice, snow and rock. There are more mountaineering equipments to be carried and the number of staying days is longer. It has strong resistance to hard and wear and can better protect the ankles and feet of the feet. This kind of boots is mainly designed for more complex terrain, climbers and heavier equipment, very good flexibility, rigidity and safety, some models can be fitted with crampons. Boots on these boots are made of thick leather and Vibram is used on the sole. And add a certain amount of carbon fiber or steel plate, under the boots using Gore-Tex and other materials, boots higher. It is suitable for long-distance mountain activities. The activity area is above the snow line and it is very good.
4, heavy climbing boots Mountaineering
It is mainly used in high-altitude areas with mixed ice, snow, and cliff topography, and the climate conditions are extremely harsh. It is specially designed for Deng Xue Shan. It has strong resistance to rigidity, can hold crampons, and can effectively protect the safety of the feet. However, these boots are heavier in weight and less flexible. Vibram is used as sole. And lining steel plate, the boot is made of hard plastic resin material, Gore-Tex material is used in the boot, and the boot upper is higher.
5, climbing shoes Climbingskates
Rock shoes are shoes specially designed for rock climbing. They are generally made of light, soft, and sticky rubber - to help rock climbers better use pedals and other technical actions on the rock wall; You can step on tiny feet; with a rubber-wrapped crotch, it's easy for rock climbers to use the heel to make “hook†movements on the rock wall, especially on the negative wall.
The design of a general climbing shoe presses the toe in the direction of the thumb so that the force can be concentrated on the thumb so that a small foot can be stepped on the rock wall. Rock climbers often choose shoes that can tightly wrap their feet in order to be able to work harder on rock walls. Some professional rock climbers even choose a size much smaller than their own. The rock climbing shoes designed for tightly wrapping the foot are different in shape because of the different shapes of the feet of the person, and often one model cannot be adapted to all of the person's feet. So if the size of the climbing shoe is larger than usual shoe size to feel comfortable, this means that the pair of shoes may not be suitable for wearing. Ordinary enthusiasts should follow the standard of letting the toes bend slightly, but without any pain. Wearing too tight shoes can affect your health and performance.
6. Upstream shoes
Due to the large amount of sand and sand in the upstream environment, the environment requires shoes to have strong adhesion instead of excellent grip. In some V-shaped canyons, when walking on the exposed rocky side of the stream, the slope may sometimes exceed 40 to 50 degrees. The shape of the sole is not as deep as that of some hiking shoes. The sole is required to have a large contact area with the rock surface to increase friction. Apart from the design of the shoe sole pattern, such as the sucker type or the wave type, this kind of friction force depends on the performance of the rubber itself. Like the previously mentioned KEENNEWPORTH2, the waterproof grazing knife and carbon rubber outsole are excellent. Just as most climbing shoes do not require special pattern designs on the soles of the shoes, the upstream environment is more complicated. In addition to considering the conditions in the water, it is also necessary to meet the requirements for crossing or limping in the jungle. Therefore, most shoes are designed with patterns. , Used to increase grip performance for complex terrain.
Upstream shoes often come out of water and into the water, which requires the shoe's drainage is better, and the sand can also be discharged with the water, reducing the wear on the footsteps.
There is no fun or excitement in the upstream course. There are waterfalls. A waterfall with a height of more than three meters can be considered as a waterfall. A low waterfall can be climbed through equipment or even a freehand climb. This requires that the upstream shoes have certain Climbing characteristics, in addition to having a good friction effect, the more pointed toe design similar to rock climbing shoes can find a good support point on the wet rock surface, and the hard toe will be very good for protecting the toe. It helps. At this time, patented toe-protected shoes, such as KEEN, can provide adequate protection.
7. Trail running shoes
The classification of cross-country running shoes is actually only gradually developed in China in recent years. In fact, in foreign countries, the history of professional cross-country running shoes will be about 10 years. each
Cross-country running shoes some friends can not distinguish, think that is the general travel shoes, in fact, not the case. Cross-country running shoes have very delicate requirements in terms of technical design, manufacturing process and material selection. Trail running mainly refers to running in the mountains in a manner of running or brisk walking. Because the speed is faster, the impact on the foot is far greater than that of the average walking. Therefore, cross-country running shoes have very complicated requirements in design support and so on.
Trailing shoe soles are generally designed with more than one floor, but some of them are composed of three parts: outsole, cushion, and midsole. The outsole is usually designed with a multiple density pattern in order to cope with different types of grip on different surfaces of the foot. The outsole is not as thick as a hiking shoe because of its weight. Therefore, it is necessary to add a layer of pad to adjust the feeling of the feet in response to the stone pits on the ground. It also provides a certain balance. The elasticity requirement of the midsole is very high, so as to deal with the ankle and knee injuries caused by the huge impact from the ground during the running.
The air permeability of cross-country running shoes is also very critical. It is also the relationship between large amounts of exercise that leads to sufficient ventilation to solve the problem of sweltering. Therefore, cross-country running shoes are widely used breathable mesh fabric. At the same time when choosing waterproof breathable material is also very cautious, so as not to take care of the waterproof and neglect the breathable effect. Cross-country running shoes are usually light weight, and the weight of some cross-country running shoes is the weight of a typical hiking shoe. In addition, the low-cut design is closer to travel shoes and is also suitable for wearing in the city. Therefore, a pair of cross-country running shoes for the general travel or inter-city travel has been fully able to meet your requirements.
The first part of the expansion: some differences between hiking shoes and hiking shoes
There is no difference between hiking shoes and hiking shoes in our impression, but in fact, this is two different outdoor shoes, there is a certain difference.
Hiking shoes are generally low-waist (this is not absolute, most of the time), because walking shoes are designed to take some good road conditions and have to walk for a long time, so the protection provided by hiking shoe soles is to protect you. The superb breathability of the feet is super good, which is why walking shoes can be an important reason for casual wear in the city; while hiking shoes are high waisted, it is necessary to protect your ankles from sprains in uneven road conditions, and more important One point is that the soles of hiking shoes have a hard texture.
The structure of the shoes is to provide users with better climbing technical support. The structure of a pair of professional hiking shoes is as follows:
Big bottom structure: It is mainly composed of big bottom rubber material and woven carbon board, so that it is sensitive and accurate when climbing, and the hardness of the sole is ensured at the same time.
Midsole structure: It is composed of one-piece support or integral nylon pre-formed inner cushion micro-hole shock absorbing and cushioning material, which further strengthens the firmness of shoes and ensures the rigidity of torsion.
Insole structure: is a kind of soft and comfortable for the foot, the last layer of the bottom structure, a good insole will provide more protection for the arch and heel.
Ankle structure: This is a kind of design that provides support and protection for the ankle. In the design of the ankle protection structure, the protection structure is designed based on different rules for the shape of the ankle. Therefore, the outer structure of professional hiking shoes is mostly high waist, and the general waist is 5--7.5 inches high.
Shoe tongue structure: The design of the inner tongue of the tongue should be high. To be thick, it should be close to the foot surface. Shoe tongue should not move easily, not bad. Stable and comfortable, and the tongue opening is large enough to wear freely. At the same time, the tongue should be manufactured using an overall folding process.
Lace structure: Lace structure style, there are two kinds of traditional symmetrical structure and asymmetric structure, the former pays attention to aesthetics, the latter pays more attention to lace and toe angle.
Upper shoe shape: The comfortable, soft and sturdy upper design will provide light weight, wear resistance and conformity with the foot shape. The forefoot space is reasonable and the heel is firm. In the manufacturing process, the overall material is used as much as possible to improve the design advantages. At the same time, the treatment of the shoe seam must be based on the pressure of the shoe, so as to ensure that the upper is not deformed under pressure.
Big bottom grain road: The design of the large soles of professional hiking shoes is very particular. Like the F1 Formula tires, they use different tyres in different climatic conditions. Because of the different types of professional hiking shoes, the design of the big textured road is very different. Of course, there is another situation, that is, even if the same type of hiking shoes, because of different design concepts, different construction costs, the texture of the big bottom will be affected, that is, when the cost is low, as long as the anti-skid on the line, Taidi Road It will not be elaborate.
But as long as it is a professional big textured road design must be like this:
1. The front and rear edge lines of the front and rear soles are designed to more firmly grip the ground and the rock surface.
2. The main function of the lines afterwards is to brake and effectively promote walking
3, left and right lines are used to prevent side slip
4. The middle part of the big sole and the front heel line are the steering balance braking area.
5. Outsole troughs with large outsole guides efficiently discharge rain, snow, moisture, and sediment to the outsole, further improving the anti-slip and shock-absorbing effects of the outsole.
Hiking shoe uppers consist of uppers and inner linings. Uppers are generally made of leather, nylon, or leather nylon. The inner lining is generally made of artificial material or soft leather, and some of the shoes are also provided with a layer of cushion to improve warmth and comfort. Although man-made materials are getting better and better, the upper is still the best of all skins. Leather is not easily deformed, and its combination of waterproof, breathable and warmth is better than any man-made material. A pair of good shoes is generally made of a single piece of leather (except for the heel and the tongue), so that the shoes can maintain a better shape after wearing for a period of time.
Asians have relatively high arches and relatively narrow feet. When choosing shoes, they can't completely believe the big brands in Europe and America. The key is to try them on. In order to protect and adapt to the swelling of the foot, hiking and walking shoes are slightly larger than usual. When testing shoes, it is best to wear a pair of thick socks, to fully untie the laces, penetrate them, and then turn them in order. Then try to walk and feel whether the arch of the foot and the sole of the foot are fully in line with the shoe body. The tiptoe can't hold the toecap and keep the space where the toes can slightly grab. This size is right.
The new shoes are not suitable for long-distance travel. It is best to wear for two weeks before departure, and there should be spare items. In the rough, rugged, inaccessible scenic spots on the mountain road, a pair of reliable and comfortable walking shoes will give a great help, especially in the wet rainy season.
