STEP 1: PUT WEIGHT IN YOUR BACKPACK. Before you start adjusting the straps and belts, put some weight in your backpack. Ideally, this would be the amount of weight you expect to carry on your hikes. Aim for at least 20 lbs. At this point, it doesn’t matter what you put in your backpack.
Regardless of the style, the shoe should have good traction and support for your foot. Dress in layers. Wear a non-cotton base layer (the layer that goes right against your skin), and pack a warm insulating layer (like fleece or down) and a rain jacket. You might not need all the layers, but better to be prepared!
