Customer Reviews Hoka Ora Recovery Flip

These sandals work great around the pool. They provide excellent traction in wet areas and the rocker action of the sole becomes easy very quickly. For sizing, I have been wearing size 7.5 in shoes though I should probably start switching to an 8. For the sandals, the size 7 works perfectly for me. The one caution I wish to share is that the upper plastic is a bit rough on the edges. When I wore these out and about town, after about an hour, the edge was chaffing one of my feet. So this sandal really is more for relax and recovery or around the pool times, or if wearing all day, you may need toe sox to prevent the chaffing.

Disclaimer: Reviewer has a surgically fused ankle that eliminates all movement at the ankle, so a rocker type sole is essential for smooth and comfortable gait. Shoe selections are very limited by ankle fusion so when I find a brand that works, I wish to pass along that information. I have worn Hoka lace-up trainers for the last year, have one pair of Hoka "pool" slides, and can wear the FitFlop sandals if there is a Wobbleboard footbed. These flips by Hoka are terrific, and easier to walk in than the slides. The straps fit close to my foot so I don't have to work too hard to keep them on, which is another benefit to my gait. The cushioning is so helpful as I have scarring along the bottom of my foot toward the heel and hard platform soles cause discomfort and limit wearing time.

I love these shoes! I have what all runnings seem to get plantar fasciitis. These shoes were a blessing to my feet. They are really helping the healing process and most importantly relieving the pain. They are pricey but are worth it. I highly recommend them. I am usually a 7.5 I oredered a 8 and they fit edge to edge on the front and back. If you want room order a size bigger.

Feels like walking on memory foam after a run. Love my HOKAs

These flip flops fit perfectly. I have neuropathy and these are nice and cushy with great arch support. Consequently, I have no swelling or pain. They do feel a bit odd, but I believe that is because of the neuropathy. Until these, I have not been able to wear sandals for years!

Loved the colorway on this flip, and the comfy cushioned sole. BUT! The thong between my toes hurt so much!! No way it was going to ease or stretch over time. So back they have to go.
