Are these suitable for hiking and walking?

If you read my review, you would know I would never buy them again for anything.

Yes, the socks are suited for hiking in the summer. They are a natural fiber and keep moisture away from the skin. My favorite brand of hiking socks are "Fits."

You can amble around the house a bit, but no, this is not intended for walking around throughout the day. It's for while you're in bed or sitting on the couch. They do work well, though.

With careful walking yes, they should. But they don't offer much protection as far as a sole so I'd be very careful about watching where I put my feet in case there is glass or something of that nature.

Sturdy enough, yes. Breathable? Probably not. My child gets very sweaty if she's in it for a long time. While it is nice and compact, I do not think it is designed for hiking.

These are great for light workouts such as jogging and walking. Just don't use them for heavy duty exercises such as running or playing tennis.

I find them to be very comfortable without slipping when I walk/run. No blisters. My guess they would be fine for your movements but keep in mind I just use them for a walk or a run.

You can absolutely take these for a walk! I wear them driving (legal in my state), at the grocery store or shopping, etc. If your wearing them and you take off a jacket you may hear some static electricity but I just take them off before doing that. Any mechanical noise caused by the wire is very minimal. Only thing I worry about is the rain, but I use a 1 gallon zip lock bag for transport to my car if it is raining for a nice cheap additional water resistant case.

I haven't tried them out running, but for walking, they're fine so long as you keep the device within the specified range which is on an arm band. Hope this helps.

They are great for riding a "mountain bike" on pavement. Nice and smooth and quiet. They are very light and thin though, so off road use should be limited to well groomed trails. Rocks, thorns, or any other sharp terrain would be a killer.

Probably but they are lightweight and uncomfortable. I wouldn't buy them again.

Probably, but it would depend on the tread of the boot. You would want something grippy like the bottom of a skate shoe, not hard, for the pins to dig into. Five Ten makes hiking and work boots that would work great.

Depends on you. If you don't want to carry around a full pack, or something that looks huge and floppy for just some day hiking, then yes. Otherwise... no?

I find them to be reasonably snug without being too tight. For me they are comfortable. If you were to be more active than walking normally, they would slide out of position. Unfortunately probably one of those things you'll have to try to see if they work for you. Hope this helped a little.

Works based on a consistent stride, so may not be the best for hiking. And with long distances, be careful of overuse tendonitis too, try Treat Your Own Achilles Tendinitis if you get it.

I bought them for hiking and paragliding in summer. Feel a bit light for colder temperatures, but very tough fabric. Maybe with respective long underwear and depending on circumstances (wind chill, still air, humidity etc.) you could use them in freezing conditions. My 2 cents :-)

I have only used them in the Go-Walks but I would think they would work if you did not have a thong sandal.
