Greetings Everyone
I'm looking for advice regarding shoes.
Im looking to replace my existing shoes which I'm finding are not very grippy on wet stones/rock.
Years ago I used to use Peglars in Arundel for all my outdoors footwear, but they have long gone now so I'm limited in the Brighton/Worthing area to to the bigger chains with their limited range or mail order with the risk of having to return if they don't fit.
I'm not particularly interested in waterproof linings. The shoes will be used mainly for hill/mountain walking with a bit of scrambling mainly in Austria and North Wales and maybe the Lakes.
My first thought was approach shoes but I'm worried about the sole being too soft and wearing too quickly.
All the bigger brands Merrel, Salomon etc seem to get poor reviews for quality.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
