Description of La Sportiva FC 1.1 Hiking Shoe - Men's: |
 |
Some say ‘just wear your trail runners,’ but running shoes aren’t built for hiking. So, La Sportiva made the Men’s FC 1.1 Hiking Shoe to get the job done. These lightweight shoes provide the additional support you need when you get out in the backcountry with a pack on your back. Plus, you get the durability of Nubuck uppers and the long-wearing performance of Vibram soles.
Bottom Line: Light hikers, not cross-over running shoes.

| I've put about 50 miles on this shoe in couple of weeks hiking in and around the bay area.
Prior to these shoes, I used the Merrell Chameleon Stretch for a couple of years and was very happy with those but i might never go back. I tend to run down trails sometimes and this shoe provides good support for that. This shoe is well built with great grip and sturdy enough for lightweight packs. I recommend this shoe if is looking for a hiking shoe which doesn't need to be broken in and will be used for day hikes or short overnight trips. |

| Alright, I have logged on a good 80 hiking miles in these now and bagged a handful of peaks, time for the review. Traction is great, they hold on the Utah granite, powdered trails, the slippery quartz and could possibly stomp a small animal without issue. The movement in them, use of materials, is stellar. By taking the leather out of the points of tension where you walk it makes for an out of the box "break-in" period. The laces hold well, I have yet to have had to tie again while on the trail and the shoe has a nice heel lock preventing your toe from hitting the end of the shoe. I opted for these over the gtex version as there are not a lot of streams and rivers to cross in the high mountains of Utah during June-October. I treated them with Nikwax and they were good to go. The other observation I made is my feet stayed much dryer in these shoes than they did in my previous pairs of hikers—Garmont Eclipse and Nagevi. |
