As an outdoors journalist, I get to test a lot of different hiking shoes and last year, there was one clear winner and to my surprise, it came from Columbia Sportswear. Right now, you can pick up the absurdly comfortable Columbia Konos TRS Outdry shoe for as low as $65.38 at Amazon. That's a massive 35% off the list price for these shoes, which I've been wearing for nearly a year and still love.
After kissing a lot of frogs when it came to testing Columbia hiking shoes, I found this pair to be practically perfect and they're now my first choice for any trail that can be tackled in a sneaker-style shoe. .
They might not look as impressive as a technical pair of hiking boots, but they've furnished me with excellent grip from the steep, loose trails of Switzerland to the sloppy winter hillsides of Scotland, which lets me move fast with confidence. They're so comfortable that I can even do a little unplanned running in them, if the notion takes me
They're built with Columbia's Omni-Max technology, which, if you don't kno,w basically means your feet are getting a gentle acupressure massage as you walk. I never get foot fatigue even after long days on the trail.
This deal applies to women's sizing and the exact price depends on sizing, but you'll find the best savings the Teal/Spring Yellow and Silver Grey/Eve colorways. If you're shopping for discounts on men's sizing, you can make similar savings on the Men's Konos TRS Outdry Mid version, which is currently going for $89 down from $130.

They're fully waterproof thanks to the Outdry membrane, so they can handle rainy days and wet grass, but I've found them to be breathable enough to wear on planes for active vacations. I like them so much I gifted a pair to my cousin, and I also have the mid-height version for when I want a little more protection.
