Superfeet orange. I needed a little extra cushion with my trail runner shoes. Used two pair in 2500 miles. Held up well and I was quite pleased.

For an AT thru hike, do you recommend a 4 oz or 8 oz Isopro fuel container? I plan to use my Pocket Rocket once in the AM and once in the PM- cooking solo.
