Birkies, and similar have been my hiking shoes as long as I can remember. The first day wearing this pair I put 6 miles on them The arch hits just right on me. I only hike in mild to hot weather, and just hate having my feet encased if I can avoid it. The trails I hike on are well maintained, national/state parks and my own and adjoining land. </p> <p>As far as my numbers, my main need is for warm to hot weather- because that's when I'm outside more. The crops and leggings are good for the cooler days, but under about 50 degrees I stay inside! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130479 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 17:27:40 +0000 nemosmom 2130479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Your color themes are so impressive! I have a crazy activity capsule question for you - do you have an item number of each type in mind when you plan? Like, X tops, X bottoms? How do you calculate what you will need?</div><div>-- numbers nerd<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130474 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 17:04:27 +0000 Angie 2130474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What<b>&nbsp;kkards </b>and<b> Suz</b> said.&nbsp;</p> <p>Interesting that there are no proper shoes!

Fun.&nbsp;</p> <p>This looks like a good mix of items. I'm amazed you hike in Birks, though! I guess it depends very much on one's conditions...I need closed toes, mostly, and at minimum some kind of tread on the sole.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130451 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 14:40:07 +0000 Anonymous 2130451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very sensible distribution among categories in both of your capsules and very sensible to have even thought to compile capsules for these activities.</p> <p>I would have to keep the sneakers in the mix for hiking because of abundant poison ivy and I also need a waterproof sandal. I'm waiting for a pair of the &nbsp;Chaco Mega Z Cloud sandals to arrive, the fit is very adjustable. Tevas are like having plastic waffles strapped to my feet fit wise.</p> <p>I'm going to do a real life review of the season and try this myself.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130449 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 14:33:31 +0000 Anonymous 2130449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>edited and resubmitted </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130445 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 14:27:36 +0000 Helena 2130445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Terrific! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130435 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 13:21:11 +0000 Bijou 2130435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suntiger, I am loving seeing your lovely capsules for your activities. My activewear is a bit all over the place and not cohesive. I really need to lift my game when it comes to my gym wear, although I have still not ventured back to the gym yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130430 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 13:01:10 +0000 Anonymous 2130430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great idea. Start with the shoes. I like lug soled hiking sneakers. Think of light weight gloves and hat that will fit in your pockets. I like REI as a starting place to look for these items. For warm weather, you may want some water sneakers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130414 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 12:09:16 +0000 Minaminu 2130414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suntiger, you are on fire! I like this hiking capsule. I also enjoy hiking and would recommend a breathable waterproof or windproof jacket. I've seen a few&nbsp;3 in 1 jackets which have a waterproof outer jacket with a detachable polyester fleece inner, that seems to be very useful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130413 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 12:06:42 +0000 unfrumped 2130413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good capsule start!<br /> These casual- active capsules are important to me too.<br /> I kind of combine walking- hiking though for hiking- which for me is usually just 2-4 horrors-I have a greater focus on specific gear functions- zip and deep or cargo pockets for shorts for example. Footwear with trades/ lug soles, wide toe box.<br /> For light hiking leather + fabric I have had some luck with Columbia at a good price point. Though I might find out how durable.<br /> Plan to be 3 seasons and some venturing into deep winter though maybe not as far afield.<br /> But tends to be warmer weather and I tend to like pockets in my pants and shorts since would not have a jacket.<br /> So far relying on years- old Eddie Bauer synthetic shorts with zip Pockets and Columbia cotton cargo shorts and have not seen any similar with same inseams &amp; pockets.<br /> Need high- neck tanks &amp; wear a shirt over, can remove if shady ( still wear sunscreen). Am trying some different fabric tanks such as the Athleta Tencil beliw, but have not yet found what I want in a true “ technical “ fabrics. Stymied somewhat by lack of ability to try on in stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hiking-capsule#post-2130412 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 11:36:18 +0000 Anonymous 2130412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my hiking/camping capsule so far . The goal is for it to be based on the element Wood- with greens, browns- but I use black too of course. </p> <p>I only hike/camp in hot to transitional weather (maybe mid 50s +), though I tossed the puffer into the capsule cause it's lightweight and has nice zip pockets. </p> <p>Additions would be another sleeved top or 2 in rust and/or olive and/or camo, hiking boots (have worn trainers or my flat-ish ON booties in colder weather), cargo joggers (rust or olive), and maybe a warmer hoodie. But it'll be 6 months before I'd use any of that! </p>
