At that price, considering all that I had heard about them, I figured I'd give Hokas a try, and picked up a pair of Cliftons-9s. Little did I know that my life was about to change. As I reflect upon my life now, I can't help but see it in terms of B.H. and A.H.

I think most of us get to a certain age, and we become almost impossible to impress. But I was definitely impressed by these shoes. With the combination of the weird arch and the almost shocking lack of weight the shoes have, I would go as far as to say I was blown away by them. Within about a week of owning them, I was all, "Asics who?"

The photo below is the color I got for my first pair. If you're trying to decide on a color, I believe it's hard to go wrong with blue and orange. (That being said, I have my eyes on an orange and blue pair that I find to be quite appealing.)

How much it cost
