I have been an avid runner for nearly 2 decades and while I’ll run anywhere, trails are my M.O. They’re more challenging, more scenic, and more fun. Plus, the softer terrain is better on joints and muscles and helps me stay injury-free, so they’re a win-win in my book. Originally from California, I relocated to Oahu, Hawaii, a year ago and have found the trail runs here to be much more challenging. Hoka Shoes  The trails are steeper, muddier, and there are a lot more obstacles, making it difficult to avoid slips and spills. In California, I had no issues wearing my road shoes on the trails but in Hawaii, I’ve been slipping all over the place. My trail running friends are constantly raving about Altra and finally, I’ve decided to give them a try. Altra Timp 4 Review When it comes ...

After spending nearly two years quarantined in a tiny one-bedroom apartment in New York City, all I want to do is be outside. While I've never been a hardcore athlete, I've spent the past 12 months learning to love running outdoors. The only problem? I hate my running shoes. Enter: Allbirds, a sustainable shoe brand with no shortage of celebrity fans — Hilary Duff, Jennifer Garner, and Mila Kunis have Oofos Shoes  all been spotted wearing them — so I was definitely on board when the brand offered to send me a few pairs to try out. My partner, a dedicated Allbirds fan, has four pairs and he swears they're the best shoes he's ever worn. Needless to say, the hype was real. I decided to test out Allbirds newest (and lightest) running shoe, the Tree Flyers in the color blizzar...

At one point during last year’s WNBA season, Storm star Breanna Stewart attended a meeting in Indianapolis in which her basketball journey was on a full display. Representatives from Puma had put together mood and inspiration boards from different junctures from Stewart’s past, “from where I grew up, to where I am now,” she says, eager to see what the two-time WNBA MVP connected with most. The meeting marked an early stage in a process that entered a new phase Friday, as Stewart’s first signature sneaker was officially announced. The Stewie 1 is not only Stewart’s debut signature sneaker, but the first publicly available signature shoe of a WNBA player in more than a decade. (Last week, The Washington Post’s Kareem Copeland documented that Mystics center Elena Delle Donne has been weari...

Given how much contact my shoes make with the streets of New York, I have a rule that I very rarely (perhaps only in the name of Prada) break: I never spend more than $150 on footwear. The only problem is that my tastes, especially when it comes to shoes, don't exactly align with my self-appointed budget. At least, they don't when I shop from anywhere other than Nordstrom. Despite what you might think about the department store, it houses just as many $1000 items as it does $150 ones. In fact, in the under-$100 bracket alone, Nordstrom carries more than 7000 shoe options, many of which look far more expensive than they are. Hoka Running Shoes And that's without the rest of my allotted shoe fund. So, really, my $150 budget isn't actually a problem at all. Or rather, it isn't when...

The Overwatch 2 narrative team has added 25,000 new voice lines to the game, some of which are described by writers as “reactive” — voice lines pulled from a complex system designed to reward players in rare or absurd moments. Overwatch 2 players on social media are starting to notice these voice lines spread throughout the game’s ongoing beta period. There are voice lines for even the most hyper-specific situations, down to recreating complex scenes from Overwatch cinematics. According to narrative designers Justin Groot and Gavin Jurgens-Fyhrie, some voice lines even include reactions to details like specific Overwatch 2 heroes’ skins. Sigma is one of Overwatch’s most contentious heroes, for one specific reason: He doesn’t wear shoes in his default skin. When the hero was first rel...
