Hoka One One Rapa Nui review

These shoes are amazing. When I first learned about Hoka I wasn't sure about them but some friends of mine gave me The Rapa Nui I fell in love with them. Now onto the review. The upper is made of a very comfortable mesh that so far I haven't experienced any uncomfortable rubbing from.The laces a speed laces which is perfect because I have had speed laces on all my shoes for a while. The tongue is quite then and the only problem with that is you can feel the laces a bit more. But so far it hasn't bothered me. The bottom has a crazy amount of cushioning but they are still the least cushioned Hokas. The cushion really keeps my legs fresh though so its great. The tread is very reliable. I have been running on snow and ice for a while now and they haven't let me fall yet. They only have a 5 mm drop so they are still a forefoot midfoot running shoe. I don't think I will ever be able to go back to a regular shoe.
Thanks Tex so much for getting me into Hokas.
