I was just thinking id go this weekend to buy a pair of Hoka hiking shoe, love my Hoka runing shoes, people complain about the cost, but in my opinion they’re the best brand out there.
“in my opinion they’re the best brand out there” — I have to agree. Comfortable, good support, good life. I’ve worn about every brand available and like the Hokas the best. Right after I fell, I went out and bought a new pair and trashed the old ones.
I normally wear heavy-duty mountain boots with strong Vibram soles out in the wilderness, but have been switching more to the Hokas this summer for hiking. I think I’m going back to the Asolo mountain boots for the big and steep hills. Those Vibram soles have gotten me through a lot of sketchy terrain.
I just paid about $180 for the Hokas, some superb insoles for arch support and tax. The insoles were 1/3 the price of the shoes!
