The new Challenger 8 is a great shoe. Wider fit than the Speedgoat with the cushioning of a road shoe. Also the new sole design grips as well as the Megagrip. Hopefully the next generation will have a gaiter attachment system.

I find the challenger model the most comfortable but don't overlook other Hoka models that will have excellent fit and comfort.

I love that these shoes have the extra grip as they provide more traction.

Hands down, the most comfortable pair of shoes I've bought for walking.My feet feel cradled in these shoes. Well balanced compared to some of the other "walking" shoes I've tried. Would certainly buy again.

These are the most comfortable Hokas that I have yet. Over the last few years I have come to wear Hokas almost exclusively. These are the best

Shoe was great until it wasn’t. Sole delaminated after only a few months. Then neither Zappos nor manufacturer would honor the warranty.

These aren't roomy enough across the toes for my husband's Size 13 3E. Most Hokas are in the Wide width. The length was perfect and the cushion height.

This year's Challenger 8 is much too narrow in the Wide width - at least for my 3E toe area width. Usually this style has been fine. It's also 1/2 size short - normally I'm a 13 in every Hoka but not this one. Cushion is good, tho, and great lug outsole.

This show propels you forward while the sole cushions each step like a comfy cloud! One of the most comfortable running shoes I have ever owned! Great look and design! Kudo!
