Caldera 7 Shoe - Women's

Feel good

Thus is the second pair of Calderas that I have owned and I love the way they feel on my feel. They are great for hiking hills and plenty of toe room.

Not nearly as soft/cushioned as the Glycerin. I’ll stick with those.

Fav

This is my new favorite!!! In the beige. Very comfortable and supportive. I do really like the color combo…. Not too gaudy.

This shoe is very stable for hiking, trail walking etc. There is a lot of support and a lot of cushion. The size is what I have ordered for other shoes and is perfect. Great shoes

Calderas Rate High

I have been wearing Calderas for my running/walking for about 7 years. I go five miles a day six days a week on gravel roads. These shoes hold up well and are so comfortable. I do not feel the rocks through the soles. In the winter I wear them in snow and on ice. I buy two pair at a time and rotate wearing them. I like these shoes for my workouts, no complaints at all.

I wear these for walking and love them. Went all over Disneyworld and my feet were very happy.

Too tight/too loose

The shoe fit me tightly across the instep and required an adjustment period before I could wear them for an extended period. The heel is too wide,as usual, but I am able to snug it up by using the optional lacing holes.

Ultimate stability and cushion

Ultimate stability with cushion on the heel strike. Grips the ground like my previous Cascadia but much more stability. Solid shoe for safety and injury prevention. Great for long runs.

Could be great

Unfortunately, the way the arch support hit my foot, it caused my foot to feel fatigued and sore almost immediately. The cushion isn’t what I was looking for in a trail running shoe. On the positive side- the traction on this shoe is amazing and the quality of materials is fantastic.

Very well made and cushioned, not over the top cushioning

I had tried the men's version and the women's. I'm kind of between a regular and wide foot. The men's in my regular dress shoe size was ok but my toe was at the end. The women's in a 1/2 size larger than my dress shoe size gave me the room I needed in the toe box while still making my ankle feel secure. These are way more comfortable and cushioned than the other trail running shoes, they have excellent traction. They do make my feet look huge 😳 but they have good side traction and even in the snow and mud and in fields they do a great job, they don't slip. When it's super cold they are still warm with my cushioned running socks. They are very comfy and not overly padded. The first time I wasn't sure because they were a little bouncy, but by mile 25 they and just cushy and really supportive without being bouncy. They have a slight energetic take off which is nice. I can go 6 to 10 miles and when im done my back and knees and hips feel great. Im still in alignment. Still hitting my stride right. Consistently. That is a first. I wish they made my foot look less clunky but I'll take comfort and no slips over looking like a pretty girl on the trails. Lol.
