Wow, Hokas nation, you are a loyal and passionate group.
You drank the kool aid in a big way!
I have posted a couple videos on Instagram pointing out that Hokas are making bad movement situations worse, and oh boy the comments roll in!
It is pretty amazing.
What do I mean by that?
Well, waaaay back in 2014 when I first started blogging I wrote about shoes.
Here is the blog if you want to read it:
I had just read this book and was astounded by one paragraph in particular.
I don’t have the book in front of me, and this might be a direct quote from the book or my summation, but it goes like this:
“The major shoe companies have known for decades that the more cushion the shoe has, the less the muscles in the lower leg actually end up working.”
Translated:
more cushion = more problems.
Now, if I was smart, I wouldn’t say a thing.
This is job security and an endless source of clients for me having all these people think Hokas are great and super and awesome.
However, that’s not how I roll.
So just save both of us a lot of time and angst and potential source of injury …
JUST SAY NO TO HOKAS!
NO!
Send them to your worst enemy, maybe. 🙂
Just kidding!
Last Reminder: NO CUSHY SHOES! PLEASE!
Here’s to balance, strength, and happiness,
🙂 Laura
