Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 2

Your shoes are great and feel comfortable when I first put them on, but when I've been on my feet my feet swell and get tight. I normally wear 16's and on a recommendation I purchased the 15's. I like the styles and colors you offer and 16's would be FANTASTIC!!!!!!

I Love, love, love these shoes. I am a 6'1" tall woman with size 13 (women's) feet. I also, after years of tennis and swimming and hiking, with the occasional stint as a runner thrown in, am a sometime sufferer of plantar fasciitis with grumpy meniscus thrown in. I work out mostly in the gym, I do still hike and play tennis and swim. These shoes are wonderful. They have great support, my knees are happy, my feet are happy. I walked all over London and the US OPEN (tennis) in them, without having to wear a knee brace or tape. When the Arahi 3 hatched I was so so disappointed. They have taken away the stability that these offer with their wider sole, and well placed arches, and actual eyelets for laces. I was so excited to find the 2's, I bought two pair. They are, by far, my favorite shoe.

Most comfortable shoes I've ever had. I'd recommend them to anyone

Use first my workouts

Really love the ride on these shoes. Stability has improved my workouts and balance.

I love these shoes! I have had a pair of Brooks Beasts but these are a much better shoe would definitely, recommend to someone with rolling ankles. The only down side is the color options I would love if they added a black and white color option.

I have a foot and a back problem. An orthopedic surgeon recommended I buy a pair of HOKA's. I got a very good fitting from a local running store. I've been 91/2 C all my life but they convinced me I needed size 10 and wide . Very limited selection/color in wide, so I bought these and have worn them everyday for a month. Extremely comfortable and stable. They never feel tight or uncomfortable even wearing them 12-14 hours a day. My back and foot are much better. Not wild about the look, but I will never buy anything but HOKA's. They have announced a new shoe A5 (?), that have better color selection and I will buy a pair to rotate

I had plantar fasciitis & a heel spur since October 2017! I work retail in a footwear department and I'm on my feet all day! Before trying Hoka I had tried 2 other brands that did not work for my feet. I was extremely desperate as the pain was affecting my work performance & there was days I couldn't walk! I decided to try the Hoka Gaviotas & Arahis because they were the most stable choice. A stability shoe was a must because I also pronate and have extremely flat feet. I want to say that as of July 2018 the pain is 90-95% gone! The maximum cushion has really relieved pressure on my heel & the middle of my foot. These shoes have completely changed my life! I'm so thankful that they worked for me and definitely think they're worth a try if you're suffering with plantar fasciitis! Please note that there was a break in period of about a week for me!

Best support by a shoe that I have ever had

Bought the Arahi 2 from my local runners store after wearing Saucony forever for my over pronation (very flat feet). Sales person recommended trying these on their treadmill and wow, what a great difference. But the real test would be the following week and although I only have a few runs on them, I absolutely love them! Very stable, light and comfortable. My new go to shoe!!

I want another pair but in the black and red colors next time.

I am a collegiate athlete and wear these for our conditioning runs 3-4 times per week, and they are amazing. The Stability shoes is perfect for my flat foot, and the shoe is so light I hardly notice I have it on.

I'm a nurse and on my feet for 12 hour shifts. I purchased these because were shown to have strong stability.

I've been a huge fan of Brooks Adrenaline for years...until the Arahi 2. This shoe got me - great arch support, breathable, and responsive. My flat feet haven't felt this good in years - and hopefully continue to feel this good with future Arahis!

I wear them for work. I walk about 5 miles a night on cement floors. They give great support and comfort.

I use them for long runs on asphalt , after the training I don"t regret or feel sore muscles

This is my 5th pair of Hokas and love their style, fit and function. As always, by 1/2 size larger than regular shoe. I wear these in Orangetheory and they feel great.
