IMO Hoka's have an adjustment period just like Newtons or any other shoe you are not accustomed to. I ran in Newtons for 6 years and tried Hoka's earlier this year. Ever since I've had heel pain after every run. There's something about either the shape of the insole or the rocker mechanism they use that seems to put a lot of stress on my heels. Could be something similar happening in your situation.Nowhere near an accurate comparison. Newtons require a complete change in mechanics and foot striking, stride etc. Hoka's are just cushioned and ride slightly higher and don't require a change in mechanics at all and IMO don't have a break in period nearly as steep.
