FOOTWEAR NEWS : A Brief Guide to Rain Forest Footwear. For the first time visitor and seasoned explorer alike, the tropical rain forest can be a source of endless fascination. The mysterious call of an unseen bird, a brief glimpse of movement high in the canopy, or the kaleidoscopic colors of a caterpillar on a trailside leaf are all common and enchanting experiences. To best enjoy these moments, the visitor to the tropical forest should carefully consider what footwear to bring. The most important criteria for evaluating rain forest footwear are comfort, traction, waterproofness, and safety. Shoes should obviously be comfortable, but it’s important to consider that the ideal shoe for trekking through a temperate wilderness may not work well in the rainy tropics. Muddy trails or frequent stream crossings can turn even a short hike into a miserable slog without the right shoes.
