With my life being a little on the complicated side right now, I have a big chunk of my things in storage. Everything I have with me right now fits in the trunk of my car. Clothes, shoes, toiletries.
I have only one pair of running shoes. My Muzunio’s I received at the end of last year. As much as I like them, and I have been quite happy with them, they are starting to show wear. I can feel the cushiness start to break down and my right foot and knee are starting to bother me.

I don’t think they really enjoy the lava rock gravel track I have been forcing them to run on.
I searched though every box in my storage unit this week to try to find my Hokas. Or even my Altras. But nope. Nothing. No running shoes were found at all. I found some other running gear, tanks and my hats. The BF wants his KAVU hat back that I have fallen in love with. I’ve had to re-wear some smelly running clothing items every week because I don’t want to do laundry more then once a week.

My storage isn’t nearly THIS bad! |
But I has a sad since I can’t find any of my other running shoes!
AND to make things worse, the town I am currently living in does NOT have a running store. I can’t go into town and buy a pair of running shoes. If I want to do that, I have to drive to Boise, which is 2 hours away. A 4 hour round trip is not something that I really want to do.
I guess my only solution is to buy a new pair of shoes online. I have to. I have no other choice. I don’t like waking up with my feet hurting and my knee bothering me is concerning. I keep getting emails from Hoka about the new Cliftons. I think I would be happy with them.

I would buy these just for the color. |
Or the Huaka. They both look similar to the Stinson’s I have been wearing the last long while.
Has anyone tried either pair? And if so, can you compare them to the Stinsons?
Any other shoe recommendations for me? I like a wider toe box and zero drop or very close to it. Also, one that works well on trails and roads – since I don’t and can’t stick to one exclusively.
