Customer Reviews Hoka Hupana 2

This is my 2nd pair of Hokas. Last year I tried the Bondi model after suffering from plantar fasciitis. Bought this pair 3 days ago, took them out of the box, and ran a half marathon with no problems! These shoes are much lighter than I expected, and were incredibly comfortable. There were no sore spots, blisters, or any other areas of discomfort with these shoes! I plan to buy another pair to save as a spare. Well done, Hoka!

Super comfortable!!

I stand most of the day and I walk 3 miles a day. I have tendon and arch issues in my right foot and was constantly fighting foot pain. I wore these shoes one day and my foot pain decreased by 75% at the end of the day when I took my shoes off. I don't think I'll ever switch to a different shoe.

I wear these every day all day long and I love them. They look so good and compliment my style and suit my lifestyle. So comfy with my inserts (i take out the sole). What more can I say? These are my favorite shoes in a very long time

I call these shoes my Magic Shoes because without them I couldn't have run my races! I was wearing a shoe that was not appropriate for me (thanks alot Dicks Sporting). Four days before I was to run a 10k (Saturday) and a Half (Sunday), I couldn't run more than 4 miles without my shins and the outside of my calf hurting so bad I cried. After walking home the last mile I made the call to speak with a company to be analyzed. I wore my current running shoes in (limping because of the pain) and after chatting for a bit and analyzing my walk and run he immediately brought me these shoes. I'm not going to lie, at first I was not happy because they looked so... chunky. However, the moment I stood up in them I was AMAZED! There was no pain! NONE! I walked around and he had me run and I had the hugest smile because the comfort was like nothing I have had in a running shoe before.These shoes are FANTASTIC! I immediately did a short run in them when I went home and was so excited!!! I ran my races and had THE shortest recovery time for my shins/calves than ever before! These will forever be my running shoe! (I have the Hoka Arahi)

I run in Stinsons, they are perfectly cushiony but cause achilles pain when I run up hills. But these Hapuna's are perfect in they provide the cushion but are light-weight and allow better/freer ankle motion. I also just got them the day before a trip to Mexico and used them for the first time walking around the Mayan ruins and running up the Ek Balam pyramid. They felt amazing from the moment I wore them. They are still covered in a bit of Mayan dust but the black and white are super good looking shoes and my husband just bought a pair because he liked the way mine looked. They are my go to shoes now for everything.

This is my 5th pair of Hokas. All of my other pairs (Stintsons and Cliftons) I've used for running. I tore my ACL and MCL and post surgery/rehab caused me to re-evaluate my exercise routine. Now I walk and do yoga, but continue to love my Hokas. I was thrilled to see this Hupana, a lightweight option perfect for around town and atheleisure. I wanted something less "thick" to wear with cute ankle jeans, skorts, etc. These are PERFECT! I love the black. Cute, versatile-They're the exactly what I was looking for. I would be thrilled to see a white/cream/light gray version. I would buy it in a heartbeat. The only thing to note before buying is that for me this show ran slightly short. All of my other Hokas are straight up 10s. I had to return this for a 10.5 because it was just a smidge short on my toes. The 10.5 are a dream; I wore them all day and felt like I was walking on air the entire day. I really hope to see more colors soon.

I am a runner/triathlete ( marathoner and Ironman). I have run in almost every shoe out there, always looking for the golden one. This is my favorite shoe by far. The Bondi was my favorite, but three weeks ago I got these and have been using them ever since. From the moment I put them on I knew I would love them. I need a stability shoe and most stability shoes are heavy and lack cushioning. Many Hoka's ( like the Clayton) offer cushioning but my feet move around in them- too much wiggle room. But these are a gem. They hold my ankle in place, and they offer just the right amount of cushioning. I wear a size 7.5- and I bought these in an 8. Happy feet, happy running.

Wish it was slightly more stabilizing but very nice shoe!! Glad it comes in wide

Ran six miles the first time I wore them and could tell they were going to be my new favorite. I have worn them several times now. The thick sole adds a lot of cushion without the weight - so light. I have to run a lot of concrete and pavement in my area and wanted something more maximalist to absorb impact. I have tried several styles of Skechers shape ups and runners with thick soles and had a lot of issues rolling my ankles. These Hokas are high but have a wider, more stable base and your foot sits into it rather than on top of it. I've run flats and hills with NO worrying of rolling ankle. The design is just great. I have had surgeries on both feet and these are very supportive but still comfy. Absolutely love them.

Recently, the bottoms of my feet would hurt so bad just a few miles into my run. My shoes weren't that old and were the brand I had run in for years. I needed a change. I had always wanted to try Hokas, but avoided them because I feared that they wouldn't give me the support I need. The Arahi is amazing and aleviated all my fears. My feet haven't felt this good in a while and I have had no problems with stability. So far, they are awesome! I have had a couple 10+mile runs and several 5 milers. I even did a little speed work with some hill repeats. A few days after I got them, I was out on a run and ran by my local Fleet Feet. I just had to run in and tell them my feet say thank you for putting me in a "run-life" changing shoe!:)

Fashion forward and super comfy. Walking around the city on weekends with a smile on my face!

I wear the Hoka One One Clifton for running about 3-4 times per week. I'm currently on my third pair since I discovered how great Hoka products are. I also wear the Hoka One One Tracer for racing. I have reoccurring shin splint issues, and Hoka shoes have become essential in keeping the issue at bay. Outside of running, I lift weights regularly at the gym and was looking for an inconspicuous shoe that would allow me to run intervals in between lifting sets. The Hoka One One Hupana shoes are perfect for that and the Plum/Dusky Orchid color is great! I am able to fit in at the gym while lifting but hop on the treadmill for half-mile sprints in between sets without the risk of injury. The cushion in the Hupana shoes provides ample support to prevent my reoccurring shin splints from surfacing. They also look great while I'm running errands after the gym. I have only worn these shoes on the treadmill, so I cannot speak to their performance outside. Overall, great shoes!! I will get another pair once more colors are available!

My feet loves this shoes. Nurses walk, run up and down the hospital halls for 12 hours and my feet still feels great at the end of the day. Please make more color options but not so bright and crazy colors.

I wear Bondi for running. I need that extra cushion for my feet, but the Speed are perfect for my "running around" casual shoe. They are supportive enough for me to wear without an arch support insert. Love them!!

I love my Hokas, am on my 3rd pair, and this will be my 4th. I think this pair of shoes would look wonderful if we could customize the color of the bottoms - since this is being touted as fashionable. Perhaps do a bit of user testing to find out what colors your audience would want, explore the financial impact? I'd really love to order these in either neon yellow or black where the white is on the base of this shoe, but the white shown here...not loving it, although I'll buy them. I appreciate it may not be cost-effective, but if it might be... :)

I bought these for a 2 week vacation in Sri Lanka that included a lot of walking, stair climbing, and one 15 mile hike. Wore them straight of the box, and never got a blister. Dried quickly when I stepped in a stream by mistake. I am now addicted. I got the black because they managed not to look unstylish. LOVE. I wear a more padded Hoka for running but for strolling, walking, climbing, etc. - these were the bomb.

I run 4 days a week. I have been running over 30yrs, best running shoe I've had. I been buying. Hoka for over 3yrs. Wouldn't buy any other type after I discover Hoka.

Hoka, start making more in more colors. LOVE THEM!!!

Fits well, a little roomy

I use them for working out at the gym.

If you have narrow low volume feet and prefer a very light weight shoe with all the Hoka comfort - THIS SHOE IS FOR YOU! I bought those as a wear to work shoe since I am on my feet a lot. To my own surprise, this is my favorite running shoe now given all the issues I mention above. My only "complaint" is that I can't seem to keep the lash from sliding off center regardless of how I ty my shoe laces.

I'm sure this is a lovely shoe. My last pair of Hokas felt tight on some days, so I ordered a half size up and wide this time. They are smaller than the other pair! Could barely get them on my feet much less actually wear them. Props to Hoka for an excellent return policy!

I wear these at work and for walking, sometimes both things in one day, and they are so comfortable. They hold my foot firmly yet they have a softness to the landing when my foot touches the ground. They are my 3rd pair of HOKAS, and I love all of them. These are not as soft in the sole as my other pairs, but they are still very comfortable.
