In 2009, adventure racers Jean-Luc Diard and Nicolas Mermoud envisioned a new type of shoe. Dedication brought their dream to life and Hoka One One™ (pronounced: Ho ⋅ ká – Ò ⋅ né – Ò ⋅ né ) was born.
Driven by a trending popularity in outdoor recreation, namely trail running, they noticed that athletes are becoming increasingly faster, and that variation in performance is most noticeable during descents. Downhill running is often synonymous with fatigue, impact and muscle strain. Inspired, Jean-Luc and Nicolas responded by creating an innovative running shoe that focuses on freedom and enjoyment.
Each Hoka One One shoe is built upon a maximally cushioned midsole that offers superior protection, comfort and propulsion. The characteristic rocker geometry promotes optimally efficient running mechanics. Oversized outsoles, which have 50% more surface area than the average running shoe, ensure maximum stability, traction and connection with the ground. Being 15% lighter than most other running shoes, Hoka One One makes running uphill as much fun as running downhill, with much less body fatigue.
Left: K-Swiss Blade-Max™ Glide in Silver/Black/Fiery Red, Right: K-Swiss Blade-Max™ Stable in Fiery Red/Optic Yellow/Black
The K-Swiss Blade-Max™ Glide and Blade-Max™ Stable were both featured in the Runner’s World 2012 Spring Shoe Guide. If you’re looking to add some trails in your running routine this season, check out Blade-Max™ Series with its Superfoam® technology. The anatomically-placed “blades” give the outsole progressive cushioning against impact. Happy running!
For runners who want to “feel more with less”, The PureProject collection by Brooks is a radically lightweight and anatomically smart option in minimalist running.
