The STQ hiking boots are available on Amazon

We spend a lot of time on our feet. Many of us don’t realize how long we’ve been standing or walking until every minute that passes becomes a little more painful. It’s definitely worth thinking ahead: Whether you’re on your feet for work, getting your steps in for exercise, or have a busy household that keeps you on your toes, you need comfortable shoes. There are plenty of supportive sneakers out there, but we’ve heard great things about STQ walking shoes. Amazon shoppers say they offer everything your feet need and more. Right now, you can snag a pair on sale for just $32.

Why is this a good offer? 💰

If you’ve been looking for a good pair of hiking shoes, you know they can be expensive. You could shell out $150 or more for a pair of trendy Hokas—or you could get several pairs of STQs for that amount.

Why do I need this? 🤔

These comfortable sneakers are as light and airy as can be. They have a breathable lining and mesh upper to keep your feet nice and ventilated. The mesh also dries quickly if you get into a puddle – and this summer you can count on that happening a lot! The upper shell of the shoes has a low heel near the ankle and the back is soft and flexible. This means that these shoes can reduce the risk of your ankles being rubbed the wrong way if you’re prone to blisters.

These hiking shoes also feature a lightweight insole made of compressed EVA foam that absorbs the small shocks you experience in everyday life and supports your feet without weighing them down. In addition, the materials are 100% vegan.

What reviewers say 💬

With nearly 9,000 five-star fans, these lightweight sneakers have earned praise from people from all walks of life, including medical professionals.

Advantages 👍

One wrote: “I bought these shoes for work. I’m a nurse and I’m on my feet all day. When I wear these shoes my feet never hurt at the end of the day!”

“I love it. Very comfortable, very light. I’m a nurse and work long hours, perfect for my feet,” wrote another medical professional.

“I loved these walking shoes/sneakers. I walked 6-10 miles every day for a week and they were so comfortable. Didn’t have to break them in beforehand. Look great with jeans, skirts and summer dresses. Thinking about buying another pair,” said a third delighted shopper.

“Lightweight and breathable. They are comfortable right out of the box. No break-in period required. The insole has arch support. The insole is removable if you want to use your own,” added another.

“My shoe size 9 is not so easy; I have bunions and a hammer toe,” said a fifth fan. “These shoes are lightweight, comfortable and breathable with good support, a nice insole and very comfortable as the mesh has a bit of stretch and the laces allow for a custom fit. They were amazing right out of the box, are lovely with or without socks, they are cute, not clunky and I’m glad they are washable.”

Disadvantages 👎

If you need shoes that can trudge through the rain—or soles that are whisper quiet—then you might want to look elsewhere.

“I’m a veterinary technician and I’m on my feet eight hours a day in a busy animal hospital,” said one customer. “For me, who has high arches and struggles with sciatica if I don’t wear good shoes, these shoes are a lifesaver. (The) only downside is that they’re not waterproof, but you can easily throw them in the washing machine if they get dirty.”

“The shoes were better than I expected,” said a final buyer. “I kneel a lot and they’ve managed to regain their shape. My only problem with them is that they squeak. … Which is largely inconsequential but annoying when walking. I’m still breaking them in, though.”
