I am searching for a pair of hiking shoes for women that look in some way feminine. Im going backpacking later this year, and I know I need practical shoes but I cannot bring myself to buy the shoes available in traveling stores. Women styles appear to be no different to the mens other than size. Surely somebody is making them in colours other than beige and blue and with practical yet decent design?

Hi
You dont say how much you want to spend or if this is a one off trip so I wil make some assumptions!!! I would strongly recommend Berghaus boots for your trip. They do a wide selection of styles and prices and can look quite feminine if your feet aren't too big!!! My partner takes size five and she can get away wearing them under jeans etc. If you can afford it get a pair of Berghaus Explorer, these have goretex lining which will keep your feet dry and have a suede upper. These are the boots my partner has had for about five years and she swears by them. You can pick them up for between £50-£60 online from various stores.
Happy hiking!!!

Hiking shoes get dirty because you are walking --- in the dirt. That's why they are colored to hide dirt. I think REI has a good selection of women's hiking shoes. Yes, many look similar to men's, but not all.

When shopping for shoes or boots, I always go to zappos online - even if you want to actually buy the boots in a store, zappos gives you a good idea of what's out there and you can see what looks nice for you.

I am sure you would look feminine in beige or blue!
