Just a general question. I'm new to smoking, I started with a Traeger Pro 34, and from what I've read post purchase Traegers don't put out a ton of smoke compared to the high end guys. That being said, I'm super happy with the way all of my cooks have come out, but I'm curious....

Do different pellets REALLY have that much of an impact on flavor? I've used Traeger Signature blend for all my cooks, and no complaints at all.

Odd question, but i was just reading a thread about barefoot shoes on concrete and it got me worried....so here goes. I typically wear flux adapt trainers daily, so minimal cushion, zero drop or Lems Boulder Summit boots in bad weather. Been doing the zero drop thing for about 2 years now, I have lousy ankles, and the zero drop seems to have alleviated the symptoms.

So my question is. Any recommendations for sneakers with zero drop and cushioning that could stand up to 5 days of walking/standing all day on unforgiving pavement? Thanks in advance!
