Hoka reviews and discussion

I'm a big fan of my new hoka shoes. I've got plantar fasciitis and have to be on my feet for 15+ hours a day sometimes. These SAVED ME! I also added insoles to them like i do with all my shoes.

Tried Hoka 3 years ago and have been committed ever since for running shoes. I love the cushioning and stability of the soles. Love the colors as well- keeping it fun!

So far, I've only had good experiences with my Hokas. They are far more comfortable than any previous shoe I've owned and while I haven't gone running in them yet, they have held up while walking long distances with no sense of discomfort so far.

I got the Bondi in a wide. I do wish they offered an extra wide because it can feel a smidge narrow at times. But I got this shoe because I needed something I could stand in for hours and hours, and it absolutely delivers.

Nike, it’s like I never even knew ya. And you feel like a wooden clog compared to my beloved Hokas. Won’t ever stop buying. I love you.

The best walking, running, everyday shoe. I have high arches and need something with support, these are the best I’ve found. The Bondi are by far my favorite. Love that they come in leather for easy cleaning with a nonslip sole. Highly recommend!

GREAT shoe. I have a high arch, and this shoe has helped decrease foot pain at the end of the day.

Great shoes! Lots of support, everyone in my household has a pair (or two).

Replaced my Clifton 7's with Clifton 9's because my old ones were destroyed from a few years of good use. I love how comfortable they are, and the all-white is super cute and clean-looking. They also have a wide fit option which is nice.

these are amazing shoes! so lightweight and have great arch support.

I bought these because I have plantar fasciitis really bad & needed better shoes. These do feel great to work in and my foot doesn’t hurt nearly as bad. My mother also just bought a pair.

I have the ahari due to needing a stability shoe and love it so far! For training and running it’s been a solid shoe but I wish it was a little bit wider even though I got the wide version.

LOVE LOVE LOVE my Hokas! I'd been purchasing Brooks sneakers for about three year and just wanted to try something new. I went to a running store to get fitted and recommendations and ended up with Hokas. They are amazing, so cushiony, lightweight and I also love the color options they have!

Offers a wide range of footwear with super comfortable technology. I’ve began using the Clifton 6 model I believe and there’s been no complaints so far into use. I’ve heard great things about the recovery slides so I’m hoping to try them out soon.

I was hesitant to pay $140 for casual shoes when I’m used to buying them off the sale rack. But these are worth the money—very comfortable, decent looking and long wearing. I’ve been wearing my current pair for over a year and they still look great

Best running shoes I have ever had!!

I originally bought Hoka's because I heard that the "maximal" padding style was really great to relieve pain and injury. As a weekend warrior, who runs to cross train, I was slowing down from knee and ankle aches. Once I tried Hoka's all the pain went away and I was running again! I have bought Hoka's for years since. I also converted my partner and my father in law to Hoka's and they now run with nothing else. Best running shoe ever.

I really appreciate shoes quality and comforty. Hoka shoes were very comfortable when you tested them but the quality is really bad. The bottom worn out in a month despite the fact only used for running. Quality doesn't match the price. Only Ecco and skechers have good quality bottom. Ecco used to have good quality overall and last very long. but they became not comfortable so I did not buy in recent year, do not know if the quality has decreased. Skechers worn out the heel part quickly. No brand is good as old Ecco shoes overall.

These shoes are overrated. Wear out fast. Had my second pair for a few months and the foot pain became annoying after 3 hours of wear. Placed gdefy insoles in the hoka sneaker and what an improvement. So back to gdefy shoes , no more hoka mania. Wearing a great comfort shoe in Gdefy.

I rarely leave negative reviews. I’ve been a loyal HOKO customer for years and have always appreciated the comfort and quality of their shoes. Unfortunately, my recent experience with their customer service has left me deeply disappointed. While in New York on business, my dress shoes began giving me painful blisters. I stopped by the HOKO store on 5th Avenue in hopes of finding a more comfortable shoe. As I’ve encountered before, the store had limited stock, but they didn’t carry my size. A salesperson suggested I purchase a larger size to get me through the week. He assured me that if the shoes weren’t comfortable, I could return them by mail once I got home, and they would send the correct size. Trusting his word, I wore the shoes for three days, then mailed them back as instructed—clean and in good condition—requesting the proper size. To my surprise, the shoes were returned to me with a note stating they had been “worn” and were therefore ineligible for return. I was shocked and frustrated. Of course they had been worn—that was the salesperson’s recommendation. The shoes showed no real wear, and I had followed the exact guidance provided by HOKO staff. Does HOKO not stand behind the promises made by its sales team? In the end, I’m left with an ill-fitting pair of shoes and the feeling that a company I trusted let me down. HOKO lost a loyal customer for no good reason. I have always heard HOKA has good shoes but they don't have a customer service culture - I found that to be very true.
