Overall

Was on a long run with some serious runners and 7 of the 8 of us were sporting Hokas. Not a gimmick shoe but a heavily cushioned fairly light ride. Liked them enough to get a 2nd pair almost right away. Wouldn’t attempt a 5K in them, but a great long run trainer. I’ve worn both pair out but can’t bring myself to pitch them as they are a great kick around shoe and look cool.
