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!
I got sas shoes I. 2018 that lasted until 2023. I bought them again and they were not as comfortable and didn’t last past this year. I’m giving them one more chance because the first does were so good. So far not as comfortable as the first pair. I wonder if my feet changed
I discovered SAS back in the late 80’s when I worked retail. I made a friend who worked at the shoe store that was in the same mall where I was working and she recommend them. They were the only shoe that allowed me to last 12 to 14 hours on the floor.
I would replace them every year, just because I wore them that much working 60+ hours a week.
Retail job… Never again. But SAS shoes are great.
I bought some SAS leather sneakers this year (I have the opposite problem, my feet are VERY narrow) and I’m hoping they’ll hold up. They seem quite well made, but I’ll have to keep a close eye on them now.
