Introducing the quiet run.
Introducing HP Running Shoes. A new breed of shoes for a new breed of runner. Who runs to discover a new sense of self. A personal rhythm. A deeper relaxation.
And ultimately... outer calm, inner peace: the quiet run.
And nothing can jolt you out of the quiet run as traumatically as foot shock. Because most run-ners today are running on dangerous ground: city streets and sidewalks, rutted roads and paths ... the cause of 60% of all running injuries.
Add to these the shock of four times body weight with every heel strike. The result, heel and ankle pains. Shin splints. Knee, hip and lower back injuries.
That's why Hush Puppies' has invented HP Running Shoes. Because we believe most runners should be wearing a different kind of shoe. Of course, no one shoe is perfect for everyone. But we're convinced that HP Running Shoes ... with their tremendous built-in shock absorbing capabilities... are the one kind of shoe most runners would benefit from most.
And no one is better qualified than Hush Puppies to have created such a shoe. We've been protecting America's feet for over two decades-. Today you won't find another shoe on the market more dedicated to comfort and endurance. -
So if you have never enjoyed the profound sense of well-being running can bring, it's time you experienced the quiet run. Better department, sports and shoe stores can show you our men's Air Wave/women's Silver Fox featured at left... and many more. At prices guaranteed not to shock you.
