Lightweight, super comfortable, great grip, and they look fantastic! Great trail runners
I have to admit, what first caught my eye about these shoes were how great they looked. The soft green with the light pink, accented by the dark lower area, it all just worked. Luckily I'm familiar enough with the brand to know the shoe was likely just as great on the inside as it is on the outside, and I'm happy to say it is.I have a pair of their hiking boots and really like them. So I jumped at the chance to try their trail runners, since I wear trail runners a lot during the autumn and winter in my rainy city. I live in the Pacific Northwest and we tend to get a lot of rain. We also have a lot of trees and when you combine fallen leaves with rain you get a slippery disaster waiting to happen. I'm outside a lot and got tired of feeling like I was always about to fall, then a few years ago I discovered that my trail runners gave me the traction I needed while still acting like a sneaker the rest of the time. Perfect!I've been giving these a try over the last week and am happy to say they've performed just as well, if not better. After checking out the amazing grip on the bottom of the sole I knew they'd do a great job. Aside from keeping me upright on the slippery ground (as well as on dirt and gravel), they feel really great to wear. They're very lightweight, something you might not expect from a sole that intense, and they have a lot of cushioning so they make it easy to go for a long time. Then when I'm done with my outdoor activities they look and perform like regular sneakers when I'm inside the grocery store or running other errands.They outdo my previous trail runners by being waterproof, something that became an issue on the heavier rain days. I would have to switch to hiking shoes otherwise my feet would end up soaked, but not with these. They keep my feet nice and dry, they also don't trap heat so my naturally hot feet can breath.I'm happy to say these will be well used over the coming rainy months, and I know I can count on them to keep me from slipping. They also look great so when I'm wearing them for my non-outdoorsy stuff I won't look like I just came in off the trail. Very highly recommended.

Extremely Impressive, Best Hiking Shoes I Have Ever Owned
These hiking shoes are truly impressive! I could see and feel the exceptional quality of the shoes right out of the box. The shoes provide stability and support I have never had before in a shoe. I actually had a little trouble first getting my foot into the shoe because the support is truly amazing. I ran long distance for many years. I sprained my ankle several times when I would hit a hole or dip in the ground and my foot and ankle would fold over to the side. Now I have a weak ankle because of it. There is nothing worse than being miles from home, and you have to walk back on a sprained ankle. These shoes provide support when I hike or walk on my mountain property, so I know if I hit a dip in the ground or a stone, my foot will stay secure in this shoe which in turn provides support to my ankle. I also have a mountain spring that comes down my mountain and there are slippery rocks. The traction on these shoes provides a secure grip so I don't have to worry about slippery rocks when I walk my dog through the ravine during rainy seasons.I ordered a 7.5 size shoe. The shoes are a perfect fit. They are light weight shoes and so comfortable I don't know I have them on.I absolutely love the design and mint green/turquoise with pink colors of these shoes. I didn't want to go into the wet area of my yard and get them muddy just yet when they are brand new. So I ran them under the water faucet in the house to test them, to see if they are waterproof. Even with the heavy stream of water from the kitchen faucet, the water rolled right off the top of the shoe. The shoes were completely dry on the inside, and they are 100% waterproof.These are the best hiking shoes I have ever owned. I am beyond happy with the CMP HELNAIT Women's Waterproof Trail Runner, Hiking Shoes and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Great if you pay attention to sizing
Very nice lightweight and waterproof hiking shoes .First, let me talk about the fit.I'm a size 41 in Euro sizes and depending on manufacturers anywhere between 9, 9.5 and 10 in US.. running shoes are often too large for me and I end up wearing a size 9. Since I don't have wide feet, medium was a good choice.9.5 wasn't available so I gambled and ordered the size 9 - it fits great! Snug, but comfortable and once they're broken in they'll be perfect.Lightweight and the fun colors stand out to the dark colored hiking boots.These will be great for shorter, easy hikes or outings and can keep them on afterwards when running errands.Very happy with themWhile they are waterproof, I always add another protective layer of a waterproofing spray to my outdoorsy shoes. I find they keep nicer longer and are easier to clean.In summary:if you have wide feet, you may want to go up 1/2 size, otherwise stick with your regular size but keep in mind that running/hiking shoes often differ from street wear and may run a bit larger.If you never owned these type of shoes, I'd probably go to a sporting goods store and have your feet measured first.Quality is great, with lots of cushioning and I know they will last for quite some time.Will update if the soles fall off or something of that sort.

Bulkier than expected but comfortable
These shoes are super comfortable and feel great for long walks or hikes, but they are a bit bulkier than I expected. The support and waterproofing are excellent, and the grip feels solid on different terrains. I just wish they had a slightly sleeker design, but overall they’re reliable and well-made
