Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 2

As a busy nurse I appreciate the comfort of these shoes for long shifts. They were recommended by several friends who also love them. I highly recommend these shoes!

Perfect of light cardio and exercise as well as running, this shoe will make movement effortless. Think "Bently for your feet". Running is so easy, it feels like cheating. Im still not sure if there is a little energizer bunny in there bouncing my feet forward, but what I do know is that I'm HOOKED ON HOKA.

Very comfortable, supportive , nice color

Bought my 4th pair of Gaviota 2's couple weeks ago. I have about 40 miles on them now. Great as usual. This shoe is exactly right for me. They offer good stability while still being a lightweight trainer. I've been running in exclusively this shoe for over a year now. All 3 prior pairs made it to the 400 mile mark and became awesome walking around shoes after I retired them. Thanks Hoka. Great product.

Third pair of Hokas in 2 years! My go-to footwear for every occasion. Maybe not black-tie!

I walked 10 miles in these shoes both of the last two days and my feet are fine

Took me a few runs to get used to but this is my new running shoe! LOTS of cushion so I don't wear thick socks. The laces are a little long which is weird. I've been running in Asics all my life and was ready for a change! Just finished a 5 mile run and they felt GREAT!!! Size 6 true to size!

I have a tendency to pronate, especially on my right foot. The Gaviota 2 keeps me stable and as I work on my feet for hours at a time this is essential. My legs and feet were a little achy for the first few days as I adjusted but now I can wear them all day and feel much less tired and achy.

This shoe fits me great. And is super comfortable for running.

I have flat feet and this sneaker gives me the support I need.

I bought them for her cause she has plantar fasciitis and she is so happy w them! Thank you!

This shoe provides great ankle and arch support, stability amid reinforcing the heel.

Great shoe!

As a nurse I've been searching for the right shoes to carry me through my 12+ hr shifts and I'm so happy I finally found them.

No more pain in my foot

This is my second pair of Gaviotas. Walking is my favorite exercise. I walk a minimum of 50 miles a week. I love this model. I've tried other models but this model is best for me for comfort and durability. I recommeded this model to my podiatrist who first recommeded Hoka to me. years ago.

I bought my first pair a little over a year ago and my second pair in December and this is my third pair. They are great apes, well made and comfortable. I used to get shin splints when I jogged, but don't get them anymore because of the stability of the Gaviota. I like to switch out the shoes each day, so I'll probably get another pair in 6-8 months.

My orthopedic doc recommended your shoes and I am more surprised that a shoe has made such a difference. I have bone on bone in my ankle as well as same in my knee. Will buy again.

Been loyal to Asics for almost 20 years with the Gel-Kayano being my favorite. I decided to try the Hoka Gaviota 2 based on a recommendation from my local Gazelle Sports (Birmingham, MI). The shoe feels bigger on my foot but also lighter. Many of you bang out runs much longer than my measly 3 miles but at 58 years... I'm more concerned about knee/back pain than anything. These shoes have really lowered the level of joint fatigue I feel during runs. Also the black color is more subdued than the electric colors of most shoes.

These are.'my third pair of hokas!

No break in needed as usual, ready to run miles out of the box. I like the added piece around the top of the foot to snug down.

First pair of shoes that do not make my get hurt! I will buy another pair!

I use them just for walking and they're so comfortable that I walk for miles and I don't get tire.

Loved the stability of this show. Sometimes I kind of wobble when I walk but this shoe makes me feel sure footed. The only issue I have with the shoe is it's a little more narrow then my other Hoka challenger shoe. After wearing it for about 30 minutes to an hour, my feet really hurt. I returned them for a wider size

I've had these for two weeks now and have been using them for my urban walks (3-7 miles a day). No blisters or chafing, and my feet feel really supported. Very happy with my purchase.
