Support is crucial when it comes to footwear. The Hiker X Ray by Feit ($320) offers a sturdy and more organic support with bamboo shank in the mid foot and a footbed made of cork, which can be seen through the footwear’s transparent sole. Its upper Horween Chromexcel leather upper goes through a month-long process to ensure comfort and durability. Other outstanding features include two-toned woven lace, flexible Vibram thread and hand-stitched Goodyear welt.
