Hooked on Hokas

By Madeline Crowley

When I put on my first pair of Hoka running shoes I was instantly transported into a universe where running became a fun and enjoyable experience for me. When I walk in these beautifully engineered shoes I feel as if I am walking on a cloud. At first, seeing how quickly my peers were buying them, I wrongly assumed that Hokas were just the next shoe trend and weren’t any different from other overpriced teenage fads. However, after trying them on in store I couldn’t help but buy myself some! They were the best thing my feet had ever felt. Senior Alexia Gourvennec agrees that with being on her feet all day, “Hokas are a lifesaver” and Regan Steele adds that, “I no longer suffer from aching foot pain because of mine.” These shoes have truly revolutionized my running form and my feet no longer cry from the touch of thin, flimsy soles. I’ve tried countless other running shoes and so far nothing else compares. Get yourself a pair of Hokas today!
