adidas  Terrex Free Hiker GORE-TEX 2.0 Hiking Shoes - Women's

These shoes have made my lateral ankle bones hurt so bad! Now both ankles are covered with bruises. Walking causes an unbearable pain. I'm soooo disappointed. I don't have special feet. Never had such a painful issue in all my life 😕

Had mine on for the first time today, totally soggy feet!! So disappointed and going to return. Not worth the money, I’m afraid. Such a shame as they are very comfy.

I purchased these in my size (7-1/2), but they appear very large. I have compared them to other 7-1/2 shoes I own, my husband's shoes, and my friend's ladies 9-1/2 shoes. These shoes are massive on a side by side comparison. While they are mostly comfortable, I would consider sizing down a 1/2 size. I tried them on a 20 km hike with 1700 foot elevation. While hiking down hills, the shoes have to be tightened a lot at the ankle to keep your toes from slamming into the front of the shoe. While climbing up steep rock hills, I found the large size of the shoe awkward to deal with for toe placement. I'd actually like an answer from Adidas on why these shoes are made so big?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was nice and comfortable when I put it on, 1- but when I started walking with it, I felt something sharp in the heel, which I have attached a photo of. I'm sure only my pairs have this problem. Fortunately, I had ordered another pair of the same model! Also, 2- belts are sensitive and should be handled with care. I'm going to return this product and try the new pair that I received recently. Thanks Adidas

I've been wearing the Terrex Freehiker GTX to walk my pup in dewy grass, rainy and snowy days. These shoes are perfect in keeping my feet mostly dry and not swampy had I worn running shoes. (You just can't prevent water from going into the shoes from wet pants' legs!) If the shoes are dried prior to the next use, the waterproof/water resistance capabilities are great! If not, then your socks will be a tad damp. The soles are grippy to boot! So hiking and walking in grass/dirt will extend the life of the soles. They will wear out sooner if you only walk on concrete and asphalt.

I literally walked through deep puddles to get out to see seal pups playing in the water at low tide, perfect grip on water sodden seaweed and socks as dry as I put them on.

This review comes from a petite person with very small feet. I fell in love with this shoe, but like most of my life they don't come in my size . I ordered a size 5 in woman ( as I am a 3.5/4 in men size) and size 5 in woman is my size but to my demise they were huge :( & I was suddenly reminded why I hate buying tennis shoes. Adidas please make shoes for all sizes. Their are many of us with small feet in the world. We are not the the majority but we their are many of us. I also do not think it is fair to have to get our shoes custom made and then have to pay more!

I love the look, colors and the way it hugs my feet.. I even bought the light jacket that matches it.. wore it hiking and its a bit big in the toe area…

They lost the black color and now the bottom is white. I was not expecting this to happen for the price that I’ve paid and in less than two months…

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LOVE these shoes. As comfy as a sneaker, light and waterproof! Perfect for trail runs, but even just for dog walks in a dewy park - socks stay dry.
