Tim's hiking shoe strategy. Traili runners with mini-gators, which we derisvely took to calling "spatz", after the military dress uniform piece that covers shoes. The shoes were much lighter, he felt he didnt need ankle support. The mini-gators kept rocks and branches out of his shoes, kept them somewhat dry without being so large that they made his legs sweat. Regardless Tim's a hiking machine and could run circles around any of us. And that had very little to do with his shoe selection.
