Oh. Meine Zehen bringen mich um. Diese Schuhe sind viel zu eng. Trägst du immer noch diese spitzen Dinger? Ich meine, sind nicht alle Laufschuhe so geformt? Nein. Du brauchst Altras. Altras? Altras sind geformt wie deine Füße. Mit einer fußförmigen Zehenbach. Einfach viel bequemer. Bezwinge dein Lauf mit Hallenzehen. Okay, das klingt traumhaft. Mehr Komfort, Kraft und Dynamik. Alles durch die Passform. Altra versteht das einfach. Ultra, stay out there.
I'm John Glenn Hill, host of Explain It to Me, and I'm filling in for Sean. Today I'll be talking with Kermit Roosevelt the Third. He's a constitutional law professor at the University of Pennsylvania and author of the book The Nation That Never Was. Reconstructing America's story. The stories we tell ourselves shape the way we live.
