#ShoeoftheWeekWomen #SeeManhattanOnYourFeet #Oofos Introducing #OOmg #Womens #RecoverFaster #FeeltheOO
Believe it or not, we're walking on air!
Manhattan is not the land of sun and fun. It is the land of work, work, work, go, go, go, and sadly, summer is over for many. However, the fun can continue on your feet with our NEWEST idea from Oofos, a brand we have worked with for many, many years and have earned fabulous reviews with their unique recovery footwear. We've featured beaucoup de sandal-style, however, as the weather cools down you have to know about their shoes, which they call: OOmg. Prepare for when it's not going to be 80F like this weekend! They have the same great benefits as the sandal-styles, however, your feet are totally covered. Not only are they great for post-workout, but also they are ideal for travel and all your Manhattan running around-as in running errands! We wouldn't tell you to jog in them-get running sneakers for that: these are amazing for walking. In black with white soles for women:
As you know, we preach the gospel of excellence in BOTH style and comfort.
Fashion matters.
Comfort matters.
You have to be both to wind up on the pages of Whom You Know!

Stay tuned for more excellence from this brand, which was also founded by a Boston College Eagle, Duncan Finigan, who now reads up there.
Brand Overview
• OOFOS was founded in 2011 by four veterans of the footwear industry who saw an unmet need for footwear that could help fitness enthusiasts and athletes recover from repeated workouts on hard, man-made surfaces. They worked with a foam chemist to develop a breakthrough foam material, what we call OOfoam™ technology. Our revolutionary OOfoam™ technology combined with a biomechanically engineered footbed to create OOFOS: footwear that can truly make your hard-working feet and body feel better. OOFOS is scientifically proven to help you recover faster.
• The biggest differentiator with OOFOS is the OOfoam™ technology found in each and every pair of our shoes.
• After two extensive research studies, we have learned that the OOfoam™ technology paired with our patented footbed design lessens the demand on your ankles and knees while walking, which results in less work for your other leg muscles. By making walking easier on the body, it reduces stress to allow your body to feel better. OOFOS are now scientifically proven to make people feel better.
• OOfoam™ offers 37% more impact absorption than EVA (traditional foam found in athletic shoes). This means that with each step, the impact that travels from your feet up through your body is reduced by more than a third! When you’re not exercising, OOFOS footwear with OOfoam™ technology gives your whole body the opportunity to relax, rebuild and recover.
• We learned through research and testing over 2.5 years that the impact-absorbing benefits of OOfoam™ technology are a tremendous asset for athletes and fitness enthusiasts in helping them recover post-workout. We also learned that OOFOS and OOfoam™ technology have made a significant impact in helping people who experience foot, ankle, knee and hip pain.
• Our mission is to “make yOO feel better”, because that is what our products do for other people, and that is what we try to do as a company in our interactions with people, too.
• OOFOS launched Project Pink in 2015. For each pair of OOFOS sold on oofos.com, we donate 3% directly to breast cancer research to support new medical breakthroughs. It’s a cause that is near and dear to our hearts, as OOFOS’ very first employee was diagnosed in 2014 with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC)- a non-curable and terminal condition. This is why OOFOS chose to put our philanthropic efforts towards having as much of an impact as possible to finding a cure and having MBC no longer be a terminal disease. Staying true to our brand mission, “make yOO feel better,” we envision Project Pink making breast cancer patients all over the world feel better. To date, we have proudly donated over $130,000 to the breast cancer research team at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston and will not stop until our collective efforts find a cure. Unfortunately, in May 2019, we lost Duncan after her courageous 4.5 year journey with breast cancer, and we are more committed than ever to ending breast cancer. Learn more here: Project Pink Video
