Hi everyone, I was talking to a hiker recently who also works in retail fitting trail shoes and hiking boots. He mentioned that his customers and he himself find stiff-soled boots more comfortable than those with flexibility at the forefoot when hiking with heavy pack loads. I had a look at the boots and I couldn’t bend them at all at the forefoot, they were rock solid

Why are stiff-soled boots preferred when hiking with heavy pack load?
