I’ve been wearing Hokas for the last year, and I love them, and they are super comfortable, but I’m not sure how durable the uppers are turning out to be, and I’m wondering if maybe I want some variety in terms of styling and what not. And if they were more durable, I would not complain. EDIT: I should have specified they are the Hoka Kaha boots, and I want another pair of boots, because I want the ankle support. FURTHER EDIT: preferably under $300 unless they are god-tier or something!
If you have an REI near you it might be worth trying them on. Per their sizing chart page:
We recommend ordering Altra running shoes ½ size larger than a dress shoe. We want you to have the best fit possible. That’s why we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. So if the fit isn’t just right, you can send it back for a different size. The Lone Peak, Torin, and Paradigm models are available in Wide, a 2E width (compared to our traditional D width).
