Columbia Sportswear Men’s Master of Faster Low Shoe

I live in the suburbs, sad but true, no towering mountains, no forests, no rushing rivers. We do, however, have access to pockets of beautiful nature, with trails for running, hiking, cycling, and canoeing. So while there are some that can step out their door and onto dirt, we traverse asphalt streets or cement sidewalks for our dose of the great outdoors.

Hence, our gear sometimes has to do double or triple duty. A shoe that can take us from house to street to trail and back is more useful than footwear created for technical terrain. If a shoe is comfortable for walking, hiking, running, and cycling, so much the better. Sometimes low-tech is more useful than activity specific gear.
