I’ve been wearing Hokas for the last year, and I love them, and they are super comfortable, but I’m not sure how durable the uppers are turning out to be, and I’m wondering if maybe I want some variety in terms of styling and what not. And if they were more durable, I would not complain. EDIT: I should have specified they are the Hoka Kaha boots, and I want another pair of boots, because I want the ankle support. FURTHER EDIT: preferably under $300 unless they are god-tier or something!

I like to wear hiking shoes as my everyday shoes. My feet are EE width.

For the past several years I've liked Merrell Moab 2, although they have been discontinued for the Moab 3. They come in a GTX model as well.

To be perfectly honest, I have had some issues that had to be fixed with the shoe glue that comes in a red tube. After fixing the issue, which has been the sole separating from the upper, the shoe would last for some time. I get out and hike at least 4 times a week, for about 2 miles. Fortunately, I have a nice county park near my house. With that amount of wear the Moabs last me for about 3 years and then it's just the tread that is worn smooth. My original pair, one's I had to fix, I still use for yard work.

As far as sports shoes go, I like New Balance. I usually keep a pair of cross trainers around for those yearly times I try to take up running but utterly fail.
