Shoes in Salamanca

The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Hey @rainforestgirl
Sorry to hear about the shoe problem. And hoping you find good replacements. I personally can’t wear any shoes from Decathlon though they do stock a limited supply of Merrells.
What happened with the Lone Peaks? Did they just wear out?
Blessings and Bien Camino. ❤️

How about checking out El Corte Inglés? Their Salamanca store has a great Sports Department with a really good range of shoes.
I can recommend the Brooks range - roomy toe box and substantial soles with excellent cushioning.
Good luck with your search and Buen Camino on this very beautiful route to Santiago.
Cheers from Oz -

The Lone Peaks were just not suitable for the first half of the rough VdlP terrain. Not enough cushioning & support rendered ankle pain. Got some Merrill trail shoes & they’re great. In Zamora at the moment & shoes working well.
