Customer Reviews Hoka Skyward Laceless

I have always been a 7.5 in Hoka shoes, including the Skyward. The laceless style was 1/2 size smaller, but the 8 fits perfectly. Not just a "slip-on," as it takes a bit of work (and the top loop) to get my foot into the shoe. But once on, it feels great. I have a narrow heel, wider forefoot and high arch. The stretchy top accommodates my arch, the shoe holds my heel, and the toe box is roomy enough. Cushioning is sublime.

The sole is very nice and cushioned. The upper is stretchy but tight - my foot isn’t that wide but it felt uncomfortable. And over the instep arch was too tight just trying on. If I wore all day I think it would be quite painful. So sadly they went back.

The BEST shoe and well worth every penny! These run very true to size! My feet, legs and back are very pleased!

These shoes are exceptionally comfortable. The height of the heel presentation, in relation to the ball of the foot, is a great fit for me. I wouldn't likely run in these shoes, but these are terrific shoes for life activities.

Excellent sneakers! So comfortable. Perfect for long walks and to keep at the door for a quick trip outside. Fit perfectly right out of the box. Only small negative is that you cannot slip them on / off without your hands. Will be getting them on another color.

Love the laceless style and they were comfortable- extremely cushy! But they are very clunky looking- Frankenstein shoes LOL

Generally fit was OK. Snug, but it was supposed to be. However, toe box was narrower than I'm used to in other Hoka styles (like Gaviota), and toes started to feel uncomfortably "flattened." Not quite what I was looking for.

Normally, I don't like slip on tennis shoes. I broke my foot, though, and this was the perfect "stack height" shoe, so I bought the pair. That way, I won't be walking too off balance. I am 150% happy about the purchased. It provided a lot of support and comfort during a hard time. I sincerely love them, and the fit is a wee wee bit large, but so darn comfortable. Being "stretchy" worried me that it would stretch out too much. After daily use for 2 months and a lot of use after that, they still feel brand new. A great shoe for every day, and also when I was injured and needed a shoe to match the height of the darn boot on my other foot. Very happy!!

I look forward to the next version of this shoe. I really liked it, except wrestling with it just to get my foot into it. I returned them because of the excessive tightness putting on / taking off. If this is corrected, what a great shoe.

They look nice and the amount of cushion is nice as well. The problem is that they are too short. I thought they would have fit perfectly since they were a recommendation from the Hoka store where they scan your foot and find the shoes that are supposed to be just right for your feet.

The most comfortable shoes I've tried on! I've recently had an ankle replacement, so was unable to get my foot in propertly and was so sad...I almost cried! LOVE these shoes!

I am a size 8.5 in Hoka (9 in other shoe brands). I ordered an 8.5 as all my other Hoka shoes, but this one is shorter and narrower/tighter. Will return and order a 9, as others mentioned here. It has amazing support.

Got them for my wife, who is a manager in retail and on her feet all day. I previously bought her the Skyward X with laces, and she loves them. However, in the white they are hard to clean and she's had them for a while (like 8 months) so it was time for a new pair. The all-black doesn't show dirt/dust as much as the white, and while these are a little more effort to put on, she loves them as much as the other pair. Happy feet, happy wife, better life.

These fit and look great. Kept em. Now trying to find a pair I can wear with socks in the winter!

I love thise laceless Hokas! They would be comfy and padded enough at the ankle that I could wear them without socks although I probably will wear socks with them. I bought them one half size smaller than my other Hoka styles and they fit perfectly. I was afraid that without laces, they might slip at the heel and they do not slip--and I have plenty of room in the toe. They are narrow so a wide foot probably could not wear this style; this is what happened to my husband. We hope they will make them in a wide soon for him. These are so light, which I love, which will make them easy to pack and they are super cute on. They feel like I'm walking on springs; they are that soft and cushy from the sole. I loved them so much I bought this second pair so I'd have two colors.

These Hokas are SO comfy and it feels like I'm walking on springs! I love all of my Hokas and these are another wonderful choice. I would note though that if you're buying them because you hope you can "step into" them without bending down and pulling them on, this is not going to happen. One of the nice things about these shoes is the great snug fit and support because the top of the shoe is high up toward the ankle, but that means you have to pull it on. And there is the perfect little "tab" to help you do that, but you cannot step into them. I bought them a half size smaller because I thought the heel might slip in my usual Hoka size, and they fit perfectly with no slipping. They do not come in wide, however, and my husband's did not fit because they were too narrow. Hopefully they will come out with a wide style for him soon!

Felt too wide and i did not feel secure in my ankkes when i walked

Way too wide. Wore them and realized how much too big they were. Snug to put on but foot wiggled way too much as I walked in it. Can’t return because I wore them. Very disappointed. Love the brand. Would order a half size smaller at least.

way too tight around the ankles
