My newest favorite pair of shoes are my hot pink Flux runners. After I got back from Punta Cana in January, my feet were killing me! I went from having free toes in flip flops all day every day to cramming my toes back into Hokas and New Balances and was in legitimate pain.

I had an old pair of Xero barefoot shoes that I wore on occasion which were pretty comfortable. They needed just slightly more in the cushion department for my heels, though. Enter Instagram ads: Flux. They have a nice wide toe box and just the right amount of cushion for my 14 hour nights.

So far, they’ve only taken me to work, but I want to get a pair of all black trainers to be my everyday shoe and maybe also a waterproof pair for when it’s snowing and/or raining outside. My only wish is that they weren’t so expensive because I want all of them.
