    I was interviewed by Outside Magazine for a short article in their January 2015 issue. The article is titled "The 10 Biggest Fitness Myths": "If I'm running long distances, fat shoes will keep me injury-free."

    (to Outside Magazine, maximalist shoes such as the Hoka One One are "fat shoes")

    Speaking of fat shoes, here is the latest offering from Under Armour
    They actually call it the "Fat Tire"

    Are there any articles that research 'increased cushioning versus decreased stability'?

    I can't immediately recall any, BUT tracking the social media reactions to the Hoka's I do not really see anyone complaining about the max cushioning making them unstable, or that if it is, its not really being a problem that is being reported,
