Why We Love This Deal
Surprisingly, some of the most technical hiking gear out there isn't waterproof jackets or a rugged day pack—it's hiking boots. Today's best hiking boots command a premium price—in many cases, in excess of $150. But as casual soft hiking continues to rise as the health activity of the moment, we have to ask ourselves if expensive boots are the only solution out there. Thankfully, the answer is no—Walmart just knocked the price down on one of its bestselling budget boots to the lowest mark we've ever seen.
The Goodyear Teton Hiking Boot is now on sale for only $30, marked down by $20 off its already affordable $50 price. This is an even lower cost than it was last time we covered the boot, back in the spring. In a time of extreme inflationary pressures, this boot offers a great reprieve for those wanting to get out on the trail and take in an all-natural dose of greenery without draining their wallet.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Sizes Available: From 7 to 13, wide sizes available
- Color Options: 4, including black, navy blue, tan, and an earthy brown.
- Intended Use: Hiking and working
- Best Use Case: This is a boot that works wonders as a casual hiker or for partial days of outdoor work.
The Goodyear Teton is a rugged boot with an ankle-high shaft, a waterproof upper, and treads inspired by those of Goodyear tires. Added comfort comes from padding around the shaft and a padded sole, along with the fresh feeling that breathable nylon provides. A Goodyear Teton will take you through scenic trails, mowing the lawn, and give you that extra footing you deserve while tackling outdoor chores.
Choosing your Goodyear Teton is surprisingly easy, as sizes 7 through 13 are available in both regular and wide sizes. Currently, nearly every size and color combination is available, though this is a discounted Walmart bestseller, so that won’t last too long. We recommend the black boot to hide dirt, though the brown has a natural woodsman vibe, and the rust color could nearly be mistaken for something far more premium from a hearty distance.

What Shoppers Are Saying
One hiker who lives in the Blue Ridge Mountain area found these to be reliable for their endeavors. “These are comfortable, wear well, don’t slip on wet rocks, and are great for rock impact,” they said.
Another who returned for a second pair of the boots reported on their initial pair, stating “that pair is still in fine shape after a good year’s worth of wear.” They describe the boot as providing excellent traction despite being lightweight.
The Goodyear Teton is now just $30. That’s a better price than we saw even this spring, making it one of the best boots for the cost you can get at the moment.
