Not twice, but 3 times in Trail runners. All on the last mile on descent. Fatigued and scanning ahead/ far out and kinda day dreaming and WHAM stepped on rock and back angles. They are great cuz lightweight, but not on rocks n shit, I should worn boots today.

Boots for monster trucking over gnarly trails, "wilderness" and tr00 wilderness.

Shoes for swiftness and agility on smooth maintained trails

Boots won’t stop you from getting ankle injuries unless they are tall enough to go entirely over the top of your ankle and have a rigid shank or sides like ski boots

There's no 'may' about it. Double walking sticks are amazing on rocks. People seem weirdly hesitant to use them though, afraid of looking nerdy maybe

start walking barefoot.
If you are too soft the use flip flops to help you build up proper soles and make the first pointy rocks more bearable.

You think I am joking, but I am not. Your feet are simply effeminate,

I wear exclusively trail runners, I spend nearly all my time running trail or fell running, a lot in ultralight things that are basically plimsoles with big lugs. I've rolled ankles plenty of times but never badly, I was always able to continue running. Never understood the concern over this, do people really have such weak ankles?

weather you need boots or not just depends on the trail, doesn't it? if the trail has vines or roots sticking up from the sides crossing over it, if it's covered in rocks and fallen trees, eroded, and overgrown - or if you're not walking on a trail at all, then you'll probably want boots (real leather high ones, not salomans or merells). if none of these things are true, i can wholeheartedly recommend going barefoot.
>>2365619
calloused feet do not prevent ankle injuries. also, if it takes you longer than 20 minutes to recover from an ankle injury, there's probably something wrong with you. not accusing you of anything, just wanted to fit that into my post

it strengthens your feet faster than wearing trainers, since trainers have some sole rigidity, even if very little. still, wearing trainers during physical activity will strengthen your feet at nearly the same rate as barefoot

That's the way to go OP. Fuck these trailrunner-only elitists in this thread who probably live in SoCal and only hike on well-maintained trails full of Instathots

i still think it's gay using sticks to walk - even if it does reduce fatigue and reduce mishaps. it's gay and i don't like it. you can argue with me, you can own me reddit style with epic (obvious, self evident) facts and logic, but i will still tell you it's gay

errr YES. admittedly i could see myself using a walking stick if i were tired enough - but (thankfully) i never have, and if i did you wouldn't see me doing it, so you wouldn't be able to prove it.

Just don't have limpdick ankles. Maybe lift something once a year to build up your legs, too.

Boots are only worth a shit in the winter, and only because getting your shoes full of snow sucks.

i had something similar happen but it was cause i was so exhausted, i had hiked way more than i should have, had not eaten enough that day. and i fell trying to run down the trail cause i was so exhausted, and hungry for the food i had in my car, fell and got up, no real injury just those scrapes you get from falling downhill on dirt. I laughed but my god i never want to experience that again, Now i always eat a good amount before i hike and take non perishable snacks that are small)

That's what you get from using ankle support too often, weak muscles.
