Finally took an hour to cut apart the sides of my new Hokas and sew them back together to make them an acceptable running shoe. Worked good today.

What did you not like about the Hokas?

Stability was the biggest issue. The side rotation is just too big. It feels like in order to correct the inherent instability the shoe was built with hard plastic sides around and behind the ankle. These plastic sides just tear up the skin around my ankles and on the achilles. When I cut down the sides and back they seem to work great on flat long trails. But I still think they just isolate your feet too much from the trail. I like to feel the trail with my toes.
