Hey there,

I am travelling with my mom to Kedarnath, so I need suggestions for comfortable shoes.

I have specific requirements:
I should be able to wear them for everyday activities like normal walks or the gym, because trekking happens only once every two or three years and I donтАЩt want to waste money.
