ballpoint Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Siam Discovery Centre sells a range of Salomon shoes, both ankle boot and training shoe styles. They don't come cheap, but they last a long time. My current pair (trail running style) are 10 years old now and still look like new, inside and out. I've worn them in all conditions, snow, deserts, forest trails... and they are so comfortable that I wear them around town most days too. Well worth the money in my opinion.

I'm really just looking for warmth and comfort while on holiday in UK once or twice a year, they won't get heavy use. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marven Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I usually get my hiking boot from an online store, the quality is good and can get free shipping. Save a lot of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expect to pay around 5,000baht. As old as this thread is I'll comment as Supersports at KSK no longer stock hiking boots but store at Central Festival do and possibly other locations.

moontang Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Never hike in running shoes, or do anything not on a smooth surface... And even then, our trainer would not allow them on the astroturf, as it is a high ankle sprain waiting to happen. Cross trainers OTOH, are good for about everything bit rugged jungle trail or heavy construction. I have two pair of newbalace size 47 waiting at my parents house.. 57 taxed and delivered for two pair. Likely 5000+ and sizing imposibilities in BKK.

Fit and healthy people don't get sprained ankles. It's almost impossible to do if you have good enough ankle muscles to support your weight.

Running shoes are not made for lateral movement. https://www.asics.com/us/en-us/blog/article/running-shoes-vs-training-shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
