Why We Like The Vasque Now Shoe
The Vasque Now Shoe has the stylish good looks of our favorite casual sneakers and all the support and comfort of our go-to hiking shoes. The lightweight mesh uppers are highly breathable, allowing air to flow and keep our feet cool whether we're trekking cross-town or breaking trail. The supportive heel counter ensures stability, and the wide heel and forefoot design provides a solid foundation to keep us moving confidently across any terrain. The EVA midsole offers excellent energy rebound, propelling us forward with every step, and the Vasque R2T outsole with aggressive Xlite lugs gives us multi-directional traction to change direction on the road or the trail.

Mile after mile comfort
I have worn these a couple of times for 2-3 miles strolls here and there, then on a 10-mile walk around Cincinnati, OH, and Covington, KY. They are comfortable right out of the box, no need to break them in or recover afterward—just pure comfort from the start. They have a slightly wider fit, which my wide feet appreciate, and these were easy to walk in despite being half a size too big (I usually wear a size 9 wide in Vasque hiking boots, so I went for a size 9 in these sneakers). Maybe an 8.5 would've been a better fit, but honestly, once I started walking, they didn't feel too big and my feet were absolutely loving these kicks. The laces stay snug without needing to double knot them. And one end of the lace is white and the other is black, so it's both stylish and practical. The one thing I did find myself wishing for is a back loop to make slipping them on a bit easier. Nonetheless, I can't wait to take them on some trails soon, and I'm considering grabbing the white pair.

Perfect For Everyday
These shoes are super comfortable, breathable but still offer some protection. I also love the subtle pops of accent color. I've worn them for long travel days and hiking local trails, and I've found them to be very versatile and comfortable!
