So my in-laws may be joining us for a hike in OR later this year and my mother-in-law wants shoe recommendations for her husband. I need some help finding a shoe for him.
Three requirements are:
Hybrid type tread: They are planning on doing some walking in Europe later this year. I want to stay away from something with teeth like the Speedcross because I am worried they would prematurely wear out on pavement/concrete.
Open toe box: I think this would be necessary because he has a bone spur on the top of his left foot where the metatarsal meets the phalange. If anyone has any advice on how to cater to this, I'm all ears and grateful :)
Subdued colors: Specifically brown on brown. He does not like flashy colors and most of the shoes I have seen him wear are brown. He is also a big hunter so it would be nice to get him something he could use doing that as well.
Many thanks in advance for the help and recommendations!
Edit: they just cancelled their trip. No shoe advice needed ;)
