I loved my Hoka Arahis until recently when I started feeling wobbly in them! I switched to Brooke Glycerin 21 supportive (I always was a pronator). They are cushy and supportive, not throwing my balance off.

Good morning, Jan

As one pronator to another, I'd been a fan of Brooks shoes (Brooks Addictions) for many years. They'd been suggested by my Boulder, Colo., foot doctor as the best possible shoes for good heel stability. I mention 'Boulder, Colo.' only to hint at this doctor's credentials: Boulder, Colo., one of the running capitals of the U.S.; the office was filled with photos of World Class runners, each photo autographed to my foot doctor. I may not have been a World Class runner (7th Class, maybe 🙂 , but I figured this doctor must know a thing or two. It wasn't until a knee replacement, and then my PN, that my love affair with Brooks Addictions came to an end. Basically, I found the weight of the Brooks shoes to be more challenging to maintaining good balance. These days I live in Skechers (for knock-about shoes) and Nunn Bush (for dressier occasions––of which there are few! Hurrah!). I miss my Brooks, though.

Have a wonderful weekend.
Cheers!
