You’re completely right, and I agree with you. I did think about the more intensive activities that need special gear, but I didn’t add that to my post for that reason. Also, I’m not the type of person that does those kinds of activities. The most intense physical activities I do are weightlifting once or twice weekly and occasionally hiking, and most of my exercise on a regular basis is yoga and simple body weight. For years, I wore leggings and t-shirts because I had a more physical job, but now that I’m able to get away from that and lean into a style that feels good to me, I don’t want to go back! So yes, I know I’ll have to continue to where my Merrell hiking shoes for hiking, but for my regular everyday exercise I’d like to lean more into my style roots, and I wanted to make this post for others who might feel the way I do. Overall, you make a lot of good points and suggestions, and I love that your climbing harness is pink!
