Does anyone understand the point of “hiking boots” and can you explain it to me?

Maybe you got a bad pair. But the general answer is they don't slip as much when you're on a steep incline. Also they have a lot of support for your ankles
yeah I don’t get the physics of it - I wore boots for decades and thin-soled running shoes seem way grippier

“ankle support” I think is a meme and transfers stress to knees but idk I’ve had way fewer problems with running shoes

Knees & hips are stronger than ankles?
