After doing several slippery, muddy hikes while visiting Kauai, my boyfriend and I decided to browse hiking boots, given we had some even muddier hikes coming up. Neither of us had ever owned hiking boots before and we didn't expect to find ones we'd be interested in lugging all the way back to the Bay Area. But we found The Ones at Lace It Up!
Despite being a fairly small store and despite the proprietors apologizing profusely about their incomplete inventory, Lace It Up had an impressive selection of hiking boots. And the two ladies who worked there were extremely helpful. Even though many other customers came in and out of the store while we were there, they were attentive and brought out all the possible inventory that could be a match for us. Thanks to their great service, both my boyfriend and I ended up finding hiking boots that we liked. (This was especially shocking to us because we're used to having to drive around to a couple of stores and/or order online for a lot of our purchases back home.) The boots have already proven useful on a couple of hikes.
Thank you to Lace It Up for helping us find great boots for our upcoming hikes. read more
