I am debating a thru hike (leaning more towards doing it each day) and I am stuck on what sort of shoe to get. A barefoot shoe such as the http://www.merrell.com/US/en-US/Prod...h?dimensions=0 seems like the best bet as it would dry out and such fairly quickly. My question is all these barefoot shoes are for "trail running" has anyone tried them and seen if they work for pack hiking. My worry is they are two thin and that would cause soar feet. I however am not worried about support because I wear flip flops around till about 30 degrees :P. So if anyone has tried something to this effect with a pack I would really appreciate a bit of knowledge sharing!
