Comments about Patagonia Drifter A/C Hiking Shoes - Women's:

I agree with the other reviewer, the heel box is too wide while the wide toe box is welcome. My solution was to cut a 1" strip of Mole-foam (not skin) and put that in the heel. Be sure to add better insoles and then put your mole foam in there.

I wore only TWO pairs of these shoes on my 2, 650 mile thru-hike of the PCT last summer. That's great value, never mind the price tag. LOVE these. It's all about a hard sole with great traction. You don't feel the rocks and trail and you do not need a boot.

I love the Patagonia Drifter.

Comments about Patagonia Drifter A/C Hiking Shoes - Women's:

Patagonia shoes are my new favorite shoe. I have wide feet and a high arch and they are great right out of the box. They are great for being outside in the mud or walking around town. Planning a trip to Scotland and they will definitely be making the trip with me.

Wide toe box, but wide heel too!

Best Uses

Comments about Patagonia Drifter A/C Hiking Shoes - Women's:

Was really excited about the potential of these shoes, with reviews stating they were a wide-toebox shoe, and getting attn from Outside.

The toebox was great, actually comfortable, which I have had a hard time finding. Unfortunately the heel is also very roomy, for me too roomy, and heel movement is not really a problem I've had before (and I've tried a LOT of shoes b/c of my difficult feet). Thought I might be able to just make it work, but quickly got a bad rub on my heel, even though I didn't even feel it while I was wearing them, I had to baby that heel for a week after just trying the around the house. Back to the drawing board for me unfortunately.

They are definitely stiff, felt a little clown-shoe-esq to me in the store, but I'm used to lighter more flexible soles and wanted something a little heavier. More of a overnight / light-backpacking sole, with a day-hiker upper, which is what I was going for, but definitely stiffer than most light hikers, and too stiff for running, at least out of the box.

Comments about Patagonia Drifter A/C Hiking Shoes - Women's:

I love these shoes. I am older, with various foot problems and wear special insoles, which fit well in these shoes.I hike long distances in desert and mountain terrain and like a solid shoe. These fit the bill. They have amazing traction both wet and dry, the footbed prevents stones from bruising your foot, the large footprint is very stable, and they are comfortable. They do look a bit like a boy's skate shoe and I agree with other reviews that the heel is bigger but everything else makes up for these two drawbacks!

Comments about Patagonia Drifter A/C Hiking Shoes - Women's:

I use custom orthodics in all of my fitness shoes but when I put these on for the first time at home, I found that I did not need them. It's almost magic how comfortable and supportive this shoe is. They're pretty cute, too :)
The best hiking shoe I have ever worn.
