Another vote for Merrill. I have a pair that's waterproof that I wear for hikes but also for walking the dog or any other time I want to get out for a walk but it's wet/raining. I love Hokas for running and normal neighborhood walks, but I prefer the stability of the Merrill's for any uneven terrain.

Danner is my choice.

do you need ankle support? I super love my Altra Lone Peak trail shoes.

Another vote that you go to REI for a fitting. They got my into an Oboz hiking boot that I love for hiking and dog walking in the fall/winter mess. Super lightweight and fits really well. They were out of my size and the guy told me to order it on Zappos! They also found me a Vasque winter snow boot that fits beautifully and is super warm. I have really hard to fit feet, so this says a lot about their shoe dept. Most just tell me that they can't help.

These are awesome particularly if you like to have your toes spread out to encourage feeling the ground more securely. I like them a lot more than the ultra cushy Hoka type shoes where I can't feel the ground at all.

They have a women's version but don't see it on the website for some reason.
