This\n    <strong>offer better breathability to ensure your feet are never wet<\/strong>\n    , which is key to avoid the so-feared blisters.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"Calzado\" class=\"section-post\">\n  <h2 id=\"Calzado\">THE BEST FOOTWEAR FOR THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO<\/h2>\n\n  <p>Pilgrims walk over all sorts of surfaces: tarmac, concrete, gravel, pebbles, clay\u2026<\/p>\n\n  <p>\n    Such a wide range of grounds makes anyone question what the right choice of footwear is, since\n    <strong>you need something that adapts properly<\/strong>\n    to every one of them.\n  <\/p>\n\n  <p>\n    It is also important to take into account the time of the year you are going to undertake this\n    experience, as this might tilt the balance towards one option or another.\n  <\/p>\n\n  <p>\n    The\n    <strong>3 most recommended types of footwear<\/strong>\n    for the Camino de Santiago are:\n  <\/p>\n\n  <h3 id=\"Botas\">TREKKING BOOTS<\/h3>\n\n  <p>\n    They offer great ankle support and proper grip to all surfaces, essential for\n    <strong>stony and broken ground<\/strong>\n    .\n  <\/p>\n\n  <p>\n    Over-the-ankle boots have the perfect design for hiking in different conditions, keeping fatigue\n    to a minimum. The lacing system also plays an important role in\n    <strong>fit and comfort<\/strong>\n    , and should never be overlooked.\n  <\/p>\n\n  <p>\n    Your selected boots must have toe and heel protection, with rubber reinforcements in case you\n    kick a rock on the trail. As for the outsoles, we\n    <strong>recommend<\/strong>\n    <strong>double density soles made of rubber<\/strong>\n    , that offer stability and grip.
