V-Lite OX Trail Racer | @hitec_sa Straight out the box these good looking trail shoes in all black felt super light in the hands. That’s the core focus of the V-Lite shoes while at the same time still offering solid trail use with what appears a quality shoe. On a morning hike down at Cape Point these shoes impressed (...and are light on the feet)! The deep lugs gave good grip on rugged sandstone footpaths and the rocky ridges. Post hike I can say these shoes provided a pretty snug and comfy fit, along with having a wider toe area which is perfect for my broad feet! The flex grooves of this V-LITE shoe are super neat in that they help the foot mould well around the uneven terrain on our trails. I’m happy to have received these awesome shoes and am looking forward to clocking up more mileage on Table Mountain in the coming months! Check out @hitec_sa for more on the V-Lite OX Trail Racer. #hitecsa #vlite #sponsored

The apparent bare slopes of the distant Kogelberg taken 6 months after the big fire. ⛰🔥 There should be a lot happening across the mountain slopes in terms of new life though! 🌿🌸 #SouthAfrica

Cant help but think this awesome place deserves a better name than ‘Cottage 2’... A quaint, historic structure in a beautiful part of the Western Cape. Simply perfect. #SouthAfrica #HikingHoliday

I’m sure this stream along with most in the southwestern cape are flowing a little stronger today! 🌿💦 #SouthAfrica

Just love Table Mountain! ⛰ #LoveTableMountain

🌿⛰ A sunnier winters day in the Western Cape. #SouthAfrica

🌿 While we’re looking at somewhat greenish things...I got my Jim Greens back a month or so ago after their re-soling. It’s both the worst and best time of year. Not having my reliable boots of choice for a few weeks is always an odd feeling, but then hitting the trail with new tread certainly brings a smile! I work these boots hard...they’re tough.🌿⛰ #MyJimGreens #ProudlySouthAfrican 🇿🇦 @jimgreenfootwear *NOT a sponsored post. Just an honest shoutout.

Winter waterfalls! It’s that time of year across the Western Cape. 💦🌿 #SouthAfrica
