@Stoneycase you've been wearing bobos? fresh kicks have started at a bill for decades

@mrcompletely You’re probably right. I was New Balance from Famous Footwear for years. Trying to transition to Altra or On Cloud and it’s straight sticker shock.

@Stoneycase it's a ridiculous hustle but once you've had a comfy shoe that also looks good it's hard to go back

@mrcompletely Got two pair of these Altra which I really like because they have the natural shape wider toe box. Little store in Berkeley. Last spring in town for Phish @$80/pr. Same shoes now $140. Must have been a crazy sale. Heading to the NB outlet store rn.

@Stoneycase @mrcompletely Fwiw, I find the new balance, Fresh Foam X series to have the same or more support than Hokas but they cost around $80 vs. $140. Durability might even be better. At least I think it’s a series. Loving my current pair.

@chopaganda @mrcompletely I was shopping for those at the outlet. Need to find a 2E width in 12 and they didn’t have. They were sleek shoes.

@Stoneycase @chopaganda just over here working up a couple sets of custom 90s in leather. these are almost there

@mrcompletely @chopaganda Wish I could! Nike just too narrow. It’s why I love Altra. They have the natural shape toe box and heel support. I even felt cramped in some 2E wide New Balance by comparison.

@chopaganda @Stoneycase @mrcompletely damn, can’t imagine how much work you had to have done to get ski boots to fit.
