I wish that all colors of all Hoka One One shoes came in "wide". They run narrow.

I have had heal pain for months and have purchased several pairs of shoes that did. Itching for the pain. A friend recommend Hoka and I am forever grateful. I shed a few tears of joy when I stood up with them on for the first time...I call them "a little slice of Heaven"

Fantastically comfortable. Wore these on an active 8 hour shift right out of the box. Like having my own personal squishy mat all day. Good arch support. I often wear a 10.5 in men's running shoes, as in these. Women's shoes are just not wide enough, or are not available in my size. The cushy sole is noticably thick: added some height!

Gave me my feet back. Just wish women's came in size 12 and I didn't have to buy men's shoes

I simply love the feel of these running shoes. I didn't know about Hoka until I came across it on Facebook. I ordered a pair and I will never go back to Nike. I wear these all the time actually

These were recommended after having PF issues. Had never worn Hoka, but decided to try them.
Really like the way the shoe feels during the run.

Hoka has hit a home run with this shoe. They're a little stiff and rigid at first, but after about 40-50 miles they soften up just enough. I've converted over from the Clifton and will continue to stay in the Arahi. The only thing I can ask for now is for Hoka to bring us a trail version of this shoe much like the Challenger ATR is to the Clifton.
Hoka, if you're reading this don't change a thing!

I've owned many different shoes, from Mizuno Wave Riders to ASICs Gel Nimbus, Reebok Z pumps and New Balance 1260s.
I had been suffering from severe plantar fascitis in my right foot for about a year. No amount of pre run or post run stretching was solving the issue. My foot would feel good for a little while and go back to being painful. It was bad enough that I contemplated giving up running.
I decided to give a new show a whirl and went down to my local running shoe store to try out some new kicks.
After I tried on the Hoka Arahi I knew I had to have them. I'm glad that I made this purchase because after 1 month of running and wearing Oofos recovery sandals, no stretching out or any other medical product, my PF is 99% gone.
I can not recommend these shoes enough for people suffering from PF, they've totally changed my life and my running. I won't buy another shoe as long as Hoka continues to manufacture this shoe or one similar.
I cannot recommend these shoes enough! Simply fantastic!

Great all around everyday running shoe. I run about 25 miles/week and this shoe feels fast and lightweight. I have an extremely flat foot and I feel no pain in this shoe. The toebox could be a little wider but it's not enough of a problem that I wouldn't highly recommend this shoe.

These are my main training and racing shoes. I just did my first Sprint Triathlon in them and they felt great before, during and even after. The probation control is amazing and it really feels like it evens everything out. The first running shoe I've ever felt like I didn't need an additional insole as well.

As a 47 yr. old male, I have to take care of my feet. I only run 15-20 miles a week, but since I have purchased mu Hoka Arahi shoes, I have had significantly less back and joint pain while running. They felt very strange at first, but after about 3 runs I now love them. I also own a pair of Altra running shoes and transition between the two. Every time I put the Hoka's on and run..it almost seems like cheating. They actually seem to increase my run speed and make running much easier. Great product.

Poor SupportGreat Support
The style was what originally caught my eye, and they look great - no doubt. They are well-cushioned, fit the foot in the way one would expect. My only slight issue is the unusual feel at the heel strike. It's like part of the heel across the back is recessed, causing it to feel like the heel is striking just the slightest bit late. But I didn't notice it after a short while, and really like the shoe.
I'd also recommend:
Asics, Brooks, New Balance

If you even think you have wide feet, these are not for you. The Arahi come in different colors, yet only the blue/gold are offered in Wide, very odd. I loved this color pattern, the materials seem to be really nice, very comfortable cushion, but arrrgggg too narrow up front. Nough said, beware.

Great shoes! My wife and I both gave Hoka's a chance finally and we both love our shoes! The Arahi is a great stability shoe - I've had these for a month and PR'd over the weekend at a half marathon. Fast, light, and overall a great shoe.

I never write product reviews, but these shoes completely blew me away. After trying many other brands of running shoes with pronation support, each one had a different way of trying to place strategic support where the manufacturer thinks you need it - but every one of them caused knee or foot pain on longer distances. I was going to give up and buy a pair of neutral shoes plus spend $50 on an arch support insert in preparation for a 12k. After seeing these shoes on a display saying they had pronation support, I figured it couldn't hurt to try them on. They felt perfect from the moment I put them on my feet, as they were both extremely comfortable and the support was not lumpy under your foot like other companies. Anyway, I bought them yesterday and ran the 12k today - could not be happier. They fit perfectly and were so comfortble that I have no post-run soreness at all. Thank you Hoka!!
