Customer Reviews Hoka Hupana 2

I love the shoe for its cushion and stability, but going over 4 miles I got blisters on my arches and the balls of my feet. It has been very painful to train for my race. Someone suggested I take out the foot bed because where it hit my arch/ball of foot is what it seemed to be where my blisters were. After taking out the foot bed, it has been great and I've been able to train again with no issues.

I absolutely love the feel of this shoe on my foot, even though they are a bit too snug. They fit my foot like a glove, and the cushioning is unbelievable. The arch support seems to be just right for me.They are the most comfortable shoes I have had on my foot in a long time, I have tried several brands and styles out there. Along with that, they are super cute! I figured that I wouldn't be able to wear them running, as they are a bit snug and I could use a women's 11 1/2 which Hoka does not yet make !!! BUT, now that they come in a wide, thank you, I am keeping these for jeans and ordering another pair!

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.

I probably like the way this shoe feels better than any in the Hoka line, even though they are a half size too small and Hoka doesn't make them any bigger! I wear a women's size 11. They hug thr feet, have a really nice cushion and I like the heel to toe ratio. I feel a little on the narrow side, but like I say I need a size 11 1/2. If I order the men's to be too loose in the midfoot.

The 9.5 was huge on me, which I normally wear in a running shoe. I sized down to a 9. I was concerned that it would be too tight and narrow to run in but I tried any way. I was right. I got blisters on the outer toe on both sides.

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!!!
