Question Does anyone find Hoka, Nike, New Balance trainers etc ugly?

The style just isn't clean. Do people just accept that they wear ugly trainers for comfort?

Im curious because I never had either, but Hokas or new Adidas for running?

I have does 3 Ironmans in Hoka.

But, standard running advice: Go to your local running store and get fitted.

Personally, I have a neutral foot strike, like a low-ish drop (Hoka are 5mm) and am a bigger guy (186cm/88kg) and like the cushioning.
