While these Hoka shoes may not look the most "attractive", they feel great! They provided all the support I was looking for, and with the open toe, my feet do not get sweaty. They are roomy enough for socks if your feet should get chilly in the evenings. I bought them to wear inside only, in place of slippers with little or no support! I may get another pair to wear outside...

This slide is super comfortable and helped me resolve a long standing plantar fasciitis problem.

Love these slides. Very comfortable and they have wonderful arch support. Only complaint is my wife thinks they look incredibly unattractive and they make me look ridiculous.

I work 10 hr days and run. I needed a good recovery shoe to help me get past plantar fasciitis and fatigue. These are great

I am about 310 pounds, and am on my feet a lot at work. I got planters fasciitis, and a tore achilles. I am using these in conjunction with Hoka one's Bondi leather shoes. I'm glad to say the planters fasciitis has healed up.

Got these for my husband after buying a pair for myself. We love them and wear as House slippers/pool shoes. He has back pain, and I have Tendonitis in my left foot. The slippers are padded and extremely comfortable and relieve both problems. A little wide for me, so I wear with “no show” socks; actually look cute!

I have horrible neuropathy in my feet, with my new Hoka one one sandals they have lessened the pain and burning. Thanks to my pain doctor for his recommendation. And the good sense to follow his advice!

I got these on the recommendation from my podiatrist who wanted me to have good arch support around the house and not go barefoot. I love the arch support. It's like standing on a little hill right in my instep and the rocker makes walking extremely comfortable. My capsulitis issues disappeared within 48 hours. The problem is, they're way too narrow. I see most people saying they're too large, but I have wide feet (Hoke One One Clifton 8 Size 12.5 EE) and I have a really hard time wedging my feet into these. The footbed is perfect for my size, but the ball of my foot just doesn't fit. The sandal slowly squeezes off when I'm stationary. I wish they made it in wide. I'm searching for an excuse to order a full size up and see if that fits better because the support and comfort is outstanding.

Nice slide, but runs wide. I wear an EE width in New Balance running shoes and an E in Florsheim dress shoes and this Hoke was a little wide.
Comparison: I bought a pair of these and a pair of Oofos in the same size to compare. I've been wearing Oofos for a year and they are about worn out. The new Oofos won!
The Oofos have a softer, more comfortable, foot conforming "insole" and run more true to size - the most comfortable sandal I've ever worn! The only advantage to the Hoke is the top is slotted allowing some air circulation that makes it a bit cooler to wear than the Oofos. Neither sandal is very attractive!! :-)
I kept the Oofos and returned the Hoke.
I'd also recommend:

I typically use a size 8.5 EE shoe. I use the sandals like slippers around the house and insert my orthotics. With socks size 9 fits perfectly. Without socks it’s a slightly big. Without socks or orthotics 9 is way too big. Very comfortable and reduced flexing of my feet which aggravates my arthritic tarsalmetatarsal joints.

My doctor recommended Hoka's and I bought the men's 8 because I was told it is wider than my usual women's 9. Not great looking, but so many foot problems, bunion, hammer toe, dislocated joint and ball of foot pain, that I need something for around the house. This is it.

I have a pair of shoes that are wide (2E) but they are too narrow for my feet. The sliders are too narrow also, so I heated them with a heat gun to stretch them out, then they fit.

These were way to narrow and uncomfortable. I expected more from this company and am very disappointed. I’ll never order again and certainly will not recommend. Wish I would have returned them.

There's such a thing as being to light, no substance, when trying to put them on, if you bearly touch them they move.
Making them a nuisance to get on.
Comfort, not bad, soul, being thick, makes for being a little unstable. Just my opinion. b

Like many others, my wife and I discovered the original recovery slide when first introduced and have worn it faithfully ever since. It didn't take long to understand the amazing fit of this shoe. There was nothing like it in how a rubber slide could perfectly conform to individual foot anatomy, addressing arch support, metatarsal pain, plantar fasciitis, etc . While somewhat roomy it has the ability to adhere and stay on your foot. The result is walking on custom orthotics that correct most foot problems without the constriction of a traditional closed shoe - like walking on custom clouds. After spending the day in less than comfortable street shoes or in a demanding sport shoe, it truly was a "recovery" slide.
A year + ago Hoka discontinued the original design and introduced Hoka 2. All I can say to anyone who didn't wear the original is that Hoka 2 does not compare on any level. The comfort and majority of support is gone. The material is hard and no longer conforms like the original. The width is still wide, but coupled with the stiffness, the shoe slips when walking and does not conform and feel as secure. The lack of support in the arch/metatarsal areas no longer provide the relief of the original shoe. The original was overwhelmingly popular with thousands of rave reviews; when we realized it had been discontinued we luckily found a few left on the internet......What a shame Hoka will not bring back the original design and material.

One of these felt a whole size smaller than the other. Had to check multiple times to make sure that I didn't get an 11 and a 12. Wish I would have sent them back right away

Loved the original Recovery Slide. Have 3 pairs. This one, not so much.Sending it back. Way too wide and generally clunky. Very disappointed. Can't imagine what Hoka One One had in mind. Why mess with something good?

I like this slide better than OOFOS. More support and less squishy. Went back to the store and bought all of the colors available in my size! Black, Light Blue, Red, Orange, Gray, Green, and Cream colors!

Absolutely and completely happy with these. Only bought from reading the description online and couldn't be happier with them. The feel of the cushion under the heel is amazing. Highly recommend.
