I loved how the shoe hugged my foot and had a slim appearance despite being a wide width. The shoe was wide enough for me. Unfortunately despite using my own orthotics, I still felt my feet turning inward. I severely overpronate, but if you don’t, this shoe would be great.

Unfamiliar with Hoka and ordered an extra-wide. I wear extra wide in Brooks, but these extra-wide Hokas were too wide for me, and I sent them back. I will re-order to wide instead.

This shoe did not work out for me. It did not have the wide toe box like most of the Hoka brand. Had to send it back for that reason!

Fit was great but after putting them on they were supposed to be good for plantar fasciitis and overpronation. Didn't work for either and the feel of the shoe said all the fluffiness will be gone in a month or two. I will find something more stable.

I’ve always purchased Arahi 6 and 7. The 8’s just don’t fit the same. They are wider than usual and I purchased med. width.

Love the look of these shoes, but the arch dug into the side and hurt

The Arahi 8 did not give me as much stability in the heel as the Arahi 7. Fabric on the front of the shoe seemed loose.
There was more padding and softer sole. Sole stuck out a lot in the back of the shoe.

This color Arahi 8 seemed like a different model; the texture and fit were different than the prior Arahi 8s that have purchased and I loved in this size. If HOKE knows that different colors have different textures, this should be highlighted.
HOKA please do better!

This was the same model as my last shoe (different color), but it was made smaller. Not consistent.

Loved the Bondi 8 in Hoka so tried these. No comparison. Fit was not the same.

Hi, unfortunately I ordered the wrong size. I thought a half size larger would be more comfortable and work for me. When I work out I slip inside the shoes and it interferes with my balance etc. I have Parkinson’s disease so I need to be cautious when it comes to eliminating fall risks. Is it possible to exchange for different shoes? I appreciate your help. Trudi
