Theyre looking like a shoe-in.

The older I get, the more I realize just how important the right shoes are.

Theyre lightweight, low profile and supportive if theyre a good pair.

I haveloved the Brooks Ghost Max sneakerfor that reason, and havent quite found a shoe thats compared since.

That is until Hoka came out withits new Skyflow sneakera month or so ago.

The moment I put these on, I knew theyd become my new go-to.

The brand sentthese shoesto me to try this week.

But the second I put these on, I felt that theyd be an instant hit for me.

Once I started walking in them, the feeling only heightened.

They were so noticeably springy, and I was walking with a little more pep right away.

The plush cushion ensured that each step was cushioned, especially while I was on the street.

Bondi 8

Hoka

It reminded me of a smooth-driving car, where I practically felt nothing on the road as I walked.

I didnt feel cracks, pebbles, or uneven terrain nearly as much as other pairs.

The shoes also gripped well onto any surface.

Clifton 9

Hoka

An entirely new sneaker from the brand, these are meant for everyday runs and walking.

They have a balanced cushion and neutral stability level, which is just what I need.

The brand noted that these shoes were a blend between two of its ever-popular pairs:the Bondiandthe Clifton.

Hoka

Other notable hallmarks are the added support at the heel, where the majority of impact takes place.

I really love how the upper is tight enough to feel secure but remains flexible and breathable.

If they sound up your alley, I wouldnt pass up on them.

Arahi 7

Hoka

Theyll likely sell out if I know the brand.
