I think running break was too long… if Hoka shoes now have narrow front. I had (still have one pair) 3 pairs Hokas before I bought Carbon X2 model. As per usual size is big considering other marathon shoes. Checked those in France in shop… all good – New ones again.
…at last Hoka’s
So, I was quite suprised when my Wife told me that my birthday present will be actually pair of Hoka Stinson Lite. Shoes, which suppose to be very fast and still give you much cushioning when running. Had to wait for my delivery little bit longer but it was worth it. Shoes are huge (I’m at least 6 cm taller) and little bit heavy but when running you won’t fill that. Shoes are coming with two insoles, higher one for regular foot and lower for wider toes (I need to use the lower one). As well Hoka’s are coming with regular laces and fast tight one. At the moment I’m using the fast ones and these do the trick, easy to tight, easy to untight. Working well…
It takes so time to adjust to weight of the shoes but after couple of km you are ok. You can manage. There is one more thing which can be slightly problem for runners – slightly higher arch, but can adjust to that as well, no problem. Checking the weight of the shoes you would say that there is no way you can run fast in these, but it is working. I actually think that I will be able to get my new PB in them quite soon after I will recover from IBS…
For now, great shoes…
