If you've never shopped at REI, it's a co-operative outdoor store. It's a co-operative in the sense that you can buy a membership to the store and become part owner. REI pays it's members with dividends in the form of store credit. The footwear at REI includes hiking boots, running shoes, cross-trainers, sheepskin boots, slippers, rain boots, minimalist shoes, even special winter traction shoes like snow chain shoes. They offer styles for men and women as well as kids.

I like REI because they dedicate themselves to making sure they only sell products that they can stand behind. I love hiking and for me, hiking shoes are an investment. It's not so much about style, but about function and comfort. A comfortable, versatile hiking boot that protects my feet from extreme weather as well as steel and slippery terrain is an investment in my health and my happiness. For these reasons I'm going to buy the Keen Kamath hiking boots at REI, they are more expensive than most shoes but they provide a great level of comfort, support, and protection that I will appreciate having for years to come.
