How to recover from running? I would strongly recommend getting some Slide Sandals, especially the Hoka One One Ora Slide Sandal. These sandals are simply amazing for recovering from your long distance runs. I prefer the Hoka sandals over the Oofos sandals because they offer more support for the arch. The arch on the Hoka Ora Recovery slide sandal is simply amazing. I love the Oofos sandal, but it does feel too soft, and not enough support for the arch in the foot. Running injuries are also difficult for running enthusiasts. I am suffering from Plantar Fasciitis, and it is so painful. However, I'm trying to stay patient and consistent in my body maintenance for taking care of the PF. It has been a big year of running for me with training for a 50-mile race and 100-mile race. Therefore, I need to up my game in the stretchings, massage, and physical therapy department. The Hoka One One Recovery slide sandals will play a key part in this recovery from a big year of running, and we are not done yet!

QD: have you worn the Hoka Recovery sandal, or the Oofos recovery sandal? Opinions on either of these recovery sandals?
I have teh Hoka Ora sandals. it's not as comfortable as the slide version. :( I rather wear birks!
to be absolutely clear: The Ora sandles with the thong style feels wierd between my toes and i prefer the slide version seth has.
I have the Hoka ones exact same color love them! I wear them to class in college quite often as well
Seth James DeMoor I have oofos that I wear every day. Love them
No but I think hoka have better because it's more spring
I have the hokas. I agree with the better arch in the footbed. It also have more of that rocker design that helps your foot roll to toe off better.
Can you do an update to this? Wondering if things have changed in the past few years. The sport model is like $60 now.
I fractured my heel and that lead to PF in that foot. Almost all heel pain. I did all the stuff the doc told me to do and nothing was helping long term. Then I found OOFOS. They were the only shoe I wore for 6 months and it healed my foot. I did all the stretches, etc as well, but the shoe was a must for me.
I prefer the hokas because of the arch support, gives the arch a bit of a break after a run and there is such a thing as too soft lol. I work at a running store and sell oofos which and really see them more as a everyday sandal not necessarily for recovery. Your foot is constantly working in the oofo where as with the hoka it can rest.
Brilliant Thomas.
I was suffering from PF like crazy when I discovered Oofos, and they saved my feet!! They are my every day go to shoe, I even wear them around the house like slippers. it's been nearly 2 years and I have zero problems now
How much is the life of OOFOS sandals ? They look like that they have a short life
The Oofos actually helped resolve my plantar fasciitis. I find it hard to believe that Oofos could have caused it.
Any cushioned footwear option may help resolve short term pain of PF, but even with proper stretching and cushioning, many suffer from chronic PF, like this gent. My podiatrist friends attribute this to lack of arch support and excessive heel mobility, which is why medical literature supports a RIGID heel and arch support if stretching and cushion don't resolve PF within 1-3 months.
I’ve had plantar fasciitis for over a year, I had no idea as time goes on the pain gets worse. My dr told me to get a pair of oofos sandals to wear around the house so I did. I have a pair of kurus and they help no doubt about it but I don’t take these oofos off my feet unless I have too
I have not tried Hoka. However, I live in my Oofos after acquiring plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonosis, posterior tibialis tenosynovitis and a sprained ankle. I could barely walk in my Asics with arch supports. The Oofos not only allowed me to walk, but helped in my recovery
try hoka bondi sr with superfeet insole for work
@@johnnyace1300 hey there! Thanks for the suggestion. Since I posted this 10 months ago, I purchased custom orthotics and a pair of Hoka. After one and a half years I can finally walk, pain-free and without a limp or surgery
yeah thats cuz ALL Asics running shoes, especially when you made this comment have like 12 mm of offset aka heel to toe drop. Whereas brands like Hoka has half that or even less, between 4 mm to 6 mm. If you have plantar you need to get pressure off the front of your foot and onto the heel. sounds wrong because plantar pain is often in the heel. but this is how it works. in order to do that you want low drop footwear, ideally zero drop. The excessive drop is one reason I don't wear Asics running shoes, the other reason is they run small, tight, short and shallow. I like new balance because their regular width is almost like a 4E in Asics and they have tons of models with very low drop, with tons of cushioning to boot. and you don't need the crazy stack heights to get some squish, all the asics models have like 40 mm stack heights.
My coach and friends on my team wear the hoka slide all the time. Personally, I wear hokas as normal trainers everyday and would love to add the slide to my recovery process. But yes, marathoners and distances under that wear these tons. Keep up the good work Seth, you make me want to even more all the time. I appreciate the vids.
Thanks Joe, keep trucking, and thanks for the info.
I stumbled onto the Hoka Ora recovery sandals 2 winters ago on sale. I didn't wear them until summer and initially took some getting used because they seemed very high, like I was gonna roll my ankle in them. However, after probably a couple days this was not the case at all and I pretty much wear these slides anytime I am not in shoes. I was a college athlete before these were around, have a history of pf and shin splints and feet that bruise easily. I love these slides. They are very comfy and supportive. I deliver mail and until recently was walking across all terrain 10-20 miles a day every day. I also had a ridiculous amount of flights of stairs for about 6 mo that that gave my knees a beating. So...I have to take care of my feet. I have never tried the oofas. The only issue I have with the recovery slides is I am one of those people who has to pull laces tight as they go on shoes so the eyelets are touching...so despite my feet being women's 9.5 if I were to size up to women's 10 I likely would not be able to keep the slides on as the arch over the forefoot would be way too loose. I ordered online and went the half size smaller to a 9 and that arch fits just right, but the slides are not quite long enough. Even with this small issue, these are easily my favorite recovery slides. I have not stylish sandals and flops but these just feel so amazing. I feel like in 2 years I may have worn them down a bit and am waiting for another sale.
I've also worn the Hoka Bondi black leather shoes for work. They have the most cushion, but my issue becomes I need a roomier toe box. I can't go to just a wider shoe because with my narrow heel...I'll step right out.
The Hoka is very popular with foot doctors too.
I have been warned by professionals to never wear foot Thongs! Not only are they very bad for our feet, but they also are dangerous!
Oofos is the best sandals around
I love this flip. I wear it at home and even walk like 8000 steps on it when I dont feel like running. Wonderful flip.
Would the Hoka's be good for someone with supination?
I love my oofos sandals sooo much that I too wear them everyday especially around the house bcuz they do give me 100% shock absorbency but now I have Metatarsalgia (it hurts to walk on hard surfaces and it feels like there's a marble in the ball of my foot) and I've been told it MAY be do to my super soft soled shoes...(my oofos)!😳
I have the same thing from walking on hard surfaces and my doc recommended OOFOOs, sucks to know everything causes it😂
The oofos slides saved my foot. I developed sesamoiditis from running and the oofos allowed me to keep the pressure off the ball of my foot so it could heal while still doing normal activities (not running of course).
Recovery. Somehow I missed this video. An advantage of taking care of your feet is you are taking care of your back. When your suffering from an injury to foot it will affect your back. God bless.
Vionics are great for support
I just bought a pair of the Hoka Slides after watching your video. Been looking for a new pair of sandals for post run. Thanks for the info and opinion.
YEAH!!! Let me know how you like them....or not....
Hi The main issue with the Hoka slides is the sizing. Either too loose or too narrow. Hence, I switched to Oofos and despite history of PF and shin splints, I have no issues with them so far.
I think I wore my OOFOS out and its time for a new pair!👍 I will try the Hoka slide as well (a girl can never have enough shoes)😁 And I heard Smootheze(?) are pretty fab, too!
I use the OOFOS daily for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome foot pain. I have fallen arches, and am walking on my bones. The OOFOS are the only shoes I’ve found that help relieve any of the pain I have with walking. However, since they’re not really “stylish” for going out, I do also like the support from Spenco, Algeria’s, & avionics. Not sure if you’ve checked them out?
Wow Sierra, thanks so much for sharing and I have not tried those Spenco models. I’ve never heard of that syndrome so I appreciate you taking the time to explain.
I am going through the diagnosis process, getting to a genetist. Thank you for your comment as I was worried if these would be good or not. I also have falling arches but walking on bone. Ehlers Danlos is a hypermobility, connective tissue syndrome.
I have had plantar fasciitis on my left foot for 2 months now. I saw both these brands recommended, so I got the Hoka Ora Recovery Slides and the Oofos slides. Both are comfortable, but the level of support is different. The Hokas provide firmer support and the Oofos are much softer and more “squishy”. I’m going to wear them both on alternating days and see which one helps me more.
any New update on your experience ??
HOKAs all the way. Did the same experiment.
I too have fasciitis & bone spur. After cortisone shots only lasting so long. I learned that tight calves play a roll in the pain. started massaging my calves on a roller big difference.
I wish you had reviewed the oofos slide instead of the thong, it is much more apples to apples. Part of what you may have run into is the issue of toe flex that occurs with thong sandles. My oofos slides are much better for my PF than the flip flops.
Hey Derek. Great point. You have to compare slides to slides. Very different outcome with such a slight unconscious gripping of the toes to keep the flip flop on. So not a really good comparison between Oofos flip flop and Hoka slides. I just bought a pair of Oofos slides yesterday and wore them for the first time. I’m in love!!! I am, however, buying a pair of Hoka too, as they are less expensive, and what the hell! Why not? 👍
I have the Hoka , do all recovery sandals have a bulged middle ? It’s lower in the heel , high in the middle and extra low in the toe ... they feel great walking (kinda propel the foot as you roll over the hump) but standing they hurt the middle of my feet.
Did the Hokas soften up after a few months of wear or do they just as firm as when you bought them? I just bought a pair of Hoka Ora slides to wear around the house and they feel a bit weird, almost over-supportive. I just felt that most other slides out there - Adidas, Under Amour, Nike etc, had no support and were very flat and hard. Thanks for the video!
I get pain in the arches of my feet after longer runs and honestly, I recover in my birkenstocks. The arch support minimizes my pain relatively quickly.
my girlfriend has the oof. thats what I call it because of how it looks. oof indeed. Anyway its not like the hoka looks much better but I'm thinking about getting her one. either another pair of oofs, the Hoka or this Olukai Ohana thing. The ohana looks the most normal. really good reviews, but I'm thinking the hoka looks mega comfortable. can finally get those old oofs out of my life for good. if she likes it. either one is $60 these days. the Ohana is $75. $35 5 years ago huh, yeah that seems to make more sense, a lot more reasonable. why should a single chunk of molded foam cost $60?
I love my OOFOS because they are so comfortable. I’m just a power walker with a little knee pain and they work fine for me.
SOOOOO glad to hear they work Carol!
I tried Oofos this summer for the first time and I have Fibromyalgia, I am really not a running, I am lucky to feel good walking all day. But, I was looking for reviews on the sandals. I have to say they saved me. I was able to have more standing and walking time because I could walk and stand without as much pain. The Oofos are incredible.
One thing I found with the Oofos after wearing the same pair the entire summer. That include with dresses shorts etc, that you can wear them out and they need to be replaced.
I purchased a pair of the Breast cancer “Pink” edition this week and it was amazing to feel the difference. So, I think the key to the Oofos is replace them before they wear out.
I am going to try the Hoka because of the price point and my husband prefers a slide. Thank you for the review. 👍🏻
Hi Carol!
I haven't tried out any of these sandals yet but I can really understand what you mean. For me Plantar Fasciitis socks also helped a lot with my feet and heel pain and for three years I wouldn't leave the house without it. But the reason I'm writing a comment because my chronic inflammation has went away after two weeks of changing my diet. The biggest part was ditching all gluten which helped drastically for me and I have read online that most people who have Fibromyalgia responds the same. Are you on a gluten free diet right now?
Additional to that it turned out I have SIBO (abnormally high) and probably leaky gut so I've switched from a mostly carb diet to a low carb high fat moderate protein diet. Basically I don't eat stuff that doesn't have antioxidants or vitamins in it like rice, corn, bread(not even gluten free) and now I feel better than ever. Also it turned out that vitamin D might have an effect on the gut so I have tested my blood for it and it was very low so now I take vitamin D supplements too.
I don't run but I'm looking for slides to wear at work and I'm so confused someone help lol. I work at a gas station and so I'm on my feet. I had a botched knee replacement which affects my hip and sciatic. My heels and the outside edge of my feet kill me after an hour or so. So I don't think I need recovery persay. I have hoka sneakers and they do decent. Summer is coming and I hate sweaty feet so I want to wear slides. What brand and style should I try?? Side note, I'm a struggling single mom and can't afford to just throw away money lol. My heels n feet hurt so bad, help!! Please??? Anyone??
Active Recovery wad pioneered by OOFOS in 2011.
I will try the Hoka for sure to make my own opinion and already have Oofos Ooahh Sport Flex at home. But my question is why you compare a flip flop with a slide sandal here. At least, compare a slide model from each company to be fare. If you go see a podiatrist, he will say right right from the start that slides are better than flip flop for your feet. It helps prevent digital contracture and hammering of your toes. That's probably why you were getting uncomfortable after a while using your Oofos flip-flop. Compare Oofos and Hoka slides in the same price range and I think you will probably get the same results. From what I hear around me daily, the 2 company are the best, After that, it really depends on the foot shape and the type of exercice. Thanks for sharing your experience, it helps other active people taking decisions.
I own a pair of oofos and I love them but As a high school 5k runner I don’t think that they are necessary. But they do feel amazing after a long run or a workout or even when you are walking around town. I have also tried on the hoka ora but they didn’t give me the same amount of cushion as the oofos. But I don’t get injured very often so I went for the more comfortable slide
Makes complete sense to go with the Oofos in your position. Are you getting ready for indoor track, or...?
Yeah I’m getting a 5 day break from cross to winter to let my body recover then it’s right into training again
Awesome. Rest is key.
That's great and all for distance runners (an unhealthy pastime, proven by numerous studies), but if you have wood or tile floors everywhere in your home, the Oofos help tremendously.
I always thought running sucked, and I was on the track team…
I have terrible neuritis in my feet and have associated pain, except when wearing my Oofos.
I can’t even survive my PF without Oofos.
I just purchased my Hoka’s and love them! It’s $55 now but, so worth it! 🙌
I don't wear thong sandals so that's an easy answer.
birkenstocks for the dub!
Shoutout! : )
Haha, going for a run now. Thanks for the daily double and shoutout
Just bought the Oofos slides and they are wonderful . I have neuropathy and they help with the pain around the house . If you have neuropathy pain , please give them a try .
Can you explain what body types are made to run 50-100 milers? Thanks
Will discuss in the live stream.
i use Offos for the past 2 years now love them not sure about the hokas but I am sure they are great as well. Use them all day long at home
Right!!! All day every day. Glad that Oofos is working out for you.
How often to replace the oofos
@@yousefgeorge3060 im on my second pair so i would say depends on how often you use them but i walk with them everyday so i find once a year is good for me but im not sure if we really need to they last and last long but once i got my new ones i noticed the difference on the arch so i would say its very personal or ask the company what they recommend maybe its like running shoes after 100 200 miles
Nathalie Calvano thanks that helpful!
OOFOS All The Way as I Want COMFORT.......HOKA is just Another CROC Sandal!
Agreed. OOFOS my everyday go to.
I want comfort AND support : )
Could not echo everything in this video more. Wore Oofos for a year, could not run due to PF. Found myself passively avoiding putting sandals the on.
Finally switched to Hoka, and immediate comfort has allowed me to walk around house comfortably and feel more confident running.
Which ones are better for your back?
This isn’t t for long walks like an athletic shoe. No way could this have caused your plantar fasciitis. Unless your doing too much in them.
how would you compare the fit since they are two different styles of sandals.? Does the Hoka sandals slip off of the foot
I've developed a Morton's Neuroma now, right foot, after about 7 years of Rockjumping and Trekking (but very vigorous).... Working out treatment plan this week.... Have been reading most ppl have to give up their sports, especially after surgery.... I'm only still on the move cause of the Skechers GoRun Ride range that have the Go Impulse Sensors taking pressure off (can even do some milder trekks in them), but need something very soft for around the house now.... So I best try the Offos....
Any1 with a history of Neuroma? Did u have to stop your sport?
Sorry to hear Gary, I hope someone can help you. Thanks for being here.
Rolled my ankle very badly 5 days ago in the Hoka Slides. The high stack height is a problem. Getting injured from my recovery sandals & not running for a week sucks. I have mixed feelings & think I’m better off in my converse sneakers.
oh man, so sorry to hear this. you are correct, the stack height is high. hmmmmm.... converse for the win!
oh and I have "crocs" lmao
Lmaooo
I live in oofos.
HOKA all the way! Tried the oofas but too soft for my plantar issues - both quality products tho so to each their own.
I never actually owned a pair of recovery sandals because I never thought it would really help. Maybe I should buy a pair just to see how they feel. They are not That expensive so it’s worth a shot I guess. Thanks for the bonus video btw :).
You're welcome Mathias! I think you will really enjoy them after LONG runs.
Hoka!!!!
For those with the HOKA recovery sandals, good luck. I'm on my third pair because one of the thongs has broken on all of them - including this third pair. They're nice looking and comfortable, but they will break. I'm going to try the OOFOS.
Oofo flip flops, didn't do well for me,too much cushion, i tore my knee, but i went walking over 5 miles wearing them. Had issues with Birkenstocks too. My Crocs were better for walking at beaches in Central FL
Hi seth .. great vid , a little question ? here in Israel we don't have the hoka recovery slide ? but we have the hoka ora recovery flip ? is this the same ? would you recommend dose ??
They are different, I prefer the Slide because of the support. Maybe order on Amazon? It’s available below this vlog 👍🏻
@@SethJamesDeMoor we have here the oofos ? would you recommend dose ?
Best option for flatter feet?
Why do you soak your feet? And what do you soak them in?
I soak my feet to help alleviate pain from my Plantar Fasciitis, I use hot water and Epsom Salt, which helps with relaxation. Thanks for the question.
Recovery
I’m interested in a pair of the hoka recovery slides... I’m a size 15 in hoka but can only find these in a 14. Does anyone know if I’d be ok sizing down? Bigfoot life.
Hmmmmmm.... I wish I could help you but I'm not sure because I've never sized down for these. Still love my Hoka Slides and I bet you will as well.
Seth James DeMoor thanks for the reply Seth. I ended up finding a pair of Oofos in my size so went with them. Hopefully they do the job 😎👍
@@BigfootRunning how's it going. Question? I'm interested in the Oofos. I have big foot too sz15 but i have very very wide feet 6 EEEEEE with very fat wide toe. Do you know if they make them for wide feet. The only footwear that will fit me is flip flops which I have to wear to work and for casual. Lucky that my job is not an office job. I moved and The place I bought my flip flop from went out of business so I'm having trouble finding a pair that will fit me. I need a second pair to wear. my first pair I have has four years of 365 day of wear on them. I am surprise my flip flops held up this long with my very very wide feet. There is no shoe or sock that's wide enough for my foot which is a big problem for me. Thank you and have a nice day.
Oofos sandals makes you “carry” them, cause your toes have no “roof”, not enough upper support. Cloudy cushion though 👍
I’d recommend the slide or clog over the slippers. I use them as shower slippers now.

I'm interested to know if they're a good investment for a high school runner, and I have a low arch, but no real history of injury so which one would be best to get?
Brandon, I would lean toward the Hoka sandal if you have a higher arch. If your foot is a little more flat, then you can probably get away with the Oofos, especially if you have strong ankles and you don't over pronate when you walk or run.
@@SethJamesDeMoor thanks a lot, I'm coming up on my last ever high school running season in my senior year of track, so I'm trying whatever I can to get a leg up on the rest of the comp
@@brandonstasulli6407 did you win?
Try "Crocs Light Ride". You won't be disappointed.
My mileage is not high I’m just a high school xc runner. Would I benefit from these? When I get back from my runs it’s not like I’m walking around I’m just laying in bed anyway
Try Crocs Light Ride. Very comfy, and not ugly like these ofos.
My mom has some oofos and I have flat feet and they are comfortable but I feel they they have too much arch support that it makes my feet look splayed out (I have arch problems and no arch) im going to try the Hoka’s (I work in a warehouse and man do I want something soft to wear afterwards
Hoka recovery sandals are amazing on my days off they come on my feet,work 10hour shifts so my poor feet need a break on my days off all i wear.
Recovering from a hip fracture. using the oofos, but not comfortable. I run marathons. Thank you for your thoughts.
I have flat feet and have to wear orthotic inserts in my shoes and after wearing sandals my feet begin to hurt and mess up. Which one of these are recommended for extra arch support
I haven't worn either of these sandals, but I do have a recovery shoe I really like. My Chacos are my go to recovery shoe for similar reasons Seth gave for liking the Hoka sandals. They are plush but are also very supportive.
Chaco, gotta love them...the sole is hard, does that take awhile to get use to?
@@SethJamesDeMoor there's probably a day or two of getting used to the sole, but it's nothing like the brake-in period for say a Birkenstock. It's more or less getting used to the small grooves that the bottom of your foot actually sits.
You've nailed it and I've had the same experience with loving my oofos, but realizing (the hard way) that they don't provide enough support. I developed achilles tendonitis, most likely because I pretty much only wear my oofos unless going to they gym, going for a run or playing disc golf. All that dog walking around my neighborhood has caused the tendonitis so I'm going to get some Hoka slides to wear around the house and running shoes only for walking the dog.
Oofos are great for a flat footed fat guy! Relieved my back pain but everyday use for weeks on end will cause knee, foot and ankle pain. For me anyway.
heya bonus vid :D
Adidas Cloudfoam is the best. None of these beat it in terms of comfort and soft cushion.
Keep up the good work the amount of videos you release is crazy
Thanks Jamie! I'll keep publishing if you are able to keep watching.
I am just going to come back and ask for an update to this video every once in a while until you cave in.
Oofos are as brilliant as adidas soft foam sliders were over 6 years ago but seem to last very little time before breaking. Il try the Hoka
Thx for this helpful review. Oofos does it for me & me flat, low arch feet.
Thanks for your video!
You're welcome Sean
excellent,weak arch and pronation info.
Can you do the hoka ora recovery shoes 😬🙏🏻
Wow, as of Jan 7, 2023 the Women's Hoka ORA Recovery Slide costs USD129.99 on amazon!
Amazon has been jacking up HOKA prices the last few years on all models/ never buy HOKAs off there.
How do you feel about Telic sandals?
I haven’t tried either of these sandals, but I do use the EVA Birkenstocks slides as my recover sandals, and I love them!!!!
The arch support is great!!
Never had problems with soreness at the bottom of my foot until this week. I always used dedicated shoes for running. Meaning I found one good pair and ran in them. Recently I increased to 3 pairs for a rotation and am now having some pain. I am wondering if the foot needs time to adjust to new shoes.
im thinking of buying the oofos beacause of my heel fat pad syndrome,
maybe those will work for me.
How are these on the knees?
Drop?? Hoka and oofos ???
Hey Seth! Thanks for the video. I'm having issues with my sinus tarsi syndrome due to numerous ankle sprains. Now I'm looking for shoes to support my arch because it looks like I overpronate. I've been considering these two slides to see which one them will give me more support so I think your video is very helpful here. Thank
Your PF has an easy cure btw
Could you please let us know what the easy cure is btw?
Does oofos run tru to size?
yes
I have the Hoka Slides. They are comfortable and supportive. CONS: If I wear them on uneven surfaces, I tend to turn my ankle. It happens a lot. Also if I don't wear them with socks, then they pull on my top-of-foot hair. Driving in slides is also not recommended. I prefer sandles that have heel straps. BTW, I am a marathoner, and yes, we wear recovery sandles/shoes
I could see the rolling of the ankle happening, I've probably only done that once, but the Slides certainly have a high stack height.
Hello! I use Crocs traditional sandals and relieved a lot my PF. Have a nice support and good density. Also is a cheaper sandals.
How much are Crocs these days?
Here in Brazil around $30...
nice!
I have both the hokas and the oofos. I suffer from plantar faciitis and fibromyalgia. I prefer the oofos as I can be on my feet all day and have zero foot pain at the end of the day. Whereas after wearing the hokas my plantar faciitis is painful at the end of the day. My oofos did stretch out and needed replacing after about 6months. The hokas have held up extremely well.
