One of my favorite shoes - Hoka Stinson ATR 6 Trailrunning Shoes - Women's

Hokas are consistently my favorite shoes. Absolutely no breaking in, they're good right out of the box. I'm a nurse and Hokas are the only shoes that can get me through a 12 hr shift. I usually buy their Cliftons but I have purchased Stinsons as well. These have more stability than the Cliftons because they're meant for trail running. Not quite as "marshmallow-y" but equally comfortable. I've tried different models and had just as good as the rest, but the Clifton and Stinson are just my favorites. Their sizing is extremely consistent so I've never worried about ordering them online. The only complaint I've seen is that some people think they're narrow. I'm on larger end of medium and it's never been an issue. I've been wearing these since their second iteration and pretty much everyone who tries them, loves them. Even when dad shoes weren't cool and Hokas didn't come in as many colors, I was still a loyal fan. I just can't say enough good things about this brand.
