Default Hiking shoes

Can anyone recommend a type of hiking shoe/boot for me? As I've gotten older, I've discovered that my feet cause problems without the right support. Thanks in advance.

It may not be the shoes that is the issue. If your feet are bothering you due to age then you might consider looking into some arch support inserts for your current shoes. You can get them at any Wal-Mart or equivalent store.

Arch supports made a HUGE difference for me.
