About the author



Hi, I'm Jory, and I created Hiking Feet to help recreational hikers and backpackers find the best hiking boots, hiking shoes, and trail running shoes for their feet and their hikes. My professional recommendations and reviews stem from my extensive hiking experience (15,000 miles in the past 13 years) and my outdoor industry experience— where I'm a "Gearhead" and Copywriter for Backcountry, a certified brand expert, and the former footwear manager at a hiking and backpacking specialty shop.
