Shoe started out great,very comfortable and my feet no longer hurt after 12 hour shift, unfortunately both soles on inside of the shoe have worn holes and completely determined and I have only had them 6 months . I can't believe the amount of money I spent to have this happen.

I have a large foot 10 1/2. I can get away with a ten or 12 depending on style of shoe. This shoe was very big. Not just the fit, but overall shoe was big. I wondered if I was sent a men’s size 11 instead of a women’s. I returned the shoe and haven’t decide if I want to try Hokas or stick with Brooks.

It feels uncomfortable, it was hard , almost tripped when i used it, maybe I wasn't able to chose the right one for me. It's always good to try before buying, i cant find Hoka store nearby. Still prefer in store shopping when it comes to shoes.

I bought these shoes for walking, but they are like weights. They don't free me--they keep my feet grounded, which is not what I wanted.

Started coming after 5 hours in to my 12 hour shift on the first day. I haven't returned them because I desperately need them due to foot pain and they were not willing to ship me another pair asap. I had ordered another pair before this and they sent them to Texas! I didn't want to go another 3 weeks. I have one other pair that I use for my gym shoes and have told everyone about how awesome this brand is but after the last month I will go back to Brooks and will no longer recommend Hoka One One.

I've purchased two pairs of Hokas in the past and loved them. This pair (same model, same size) is noticeably larger and my foot slips around in the shoe. Very disappointing.

I purchased this hoping it would help my lower back problems. Of the three Hoggas I bought this is the only one that didn't do the job. I clean for a living so I am on my feet all day every day. Would love it if they would exchange it for another shoe I just recently purchased with this one.

The other pair of Hoka (Bondi 7) I purchased aren't constructed properly. I left a message weeks ago but haven't heard back. The insert is too small inside the right shoe. I now have calluses on my little toe and right side of my foot.
I otherwise think I would love the shoes. Unfortunately, I have had to stop wearing them. I wish I would have received a response weeks ago.

This was the first pair of hoka shoes I ever bought! I have major feet pain and I have heard such good things about hokas. So I broke down and ordered a pair! These have no support and feel like I'm walking on the ground. Disappointed ......

I thought these would be good and comfortable but they weren't ! I had sore feet and they never fit right.

I bought these for my NIA (a dance exercise practice) because dancing barefoot was causing flare up of plantar fascitis. I only used them twice indoors for class. The shoes were so stiff and heavy that I was unable to balance or stand on the balls of my feet.

These are known in our walking group to be the very best, most comfortable walking shoes ever. Every single person in our group of 10 love them.
For me, they are far too wide, and I feel 'stuck' with them. Originally I bought the thicker-soled ones, which were incredibly huge. Then I ordered what we're supposed to be a smaller fit. They're better, but still so wide that if I tie them tight enough, the whole length of the laces is puckered all the way down.
Definitely not for more narrow-footed people! I do t even co wider myself a narrow, I'm a narrow/medium, I guess: Never he to order size A, when those were available (in the old days).
Very disappointed.

These felt great when I tried them on but they're going back. There's virtually no tread on the soles and I would wear these down to a slippery surface in no time.

I noticed previous one had the sole completely flat. I just got new ones and wearing down already. Typical use not even running shoe.

Ordered my regular size. At least 1/2 size too big. Poor arch support. I wore them once on 1 mile walk and wish I could return them. $140 wasted.

I got this brand as a recommendation from a friend after Brooks changed their Ghost design. At first these shoes were great. They were comfortable and the cradled my foot just so. Then after a while my foot would shift during running. It was if I was almost running on the side of my feet. Also the slight rocker in them kept me falling off balance during floor exercises like lunges. But I stuck with it thinking I needed to adjust my stances and running form. After 5 months I am finally giving up. My legs and feet can't take it anymore and I am injuring myself just because I spent over 100 on shoes. So not worth it. If you take HIIT classes these are not the shoes for you.

I was so excited to get my new black AKASA Hoka's. I have about 8 pairs. I'm on my feet all day as a massage therapist and was so disappointed to get this new style. They are HUGE compared to their other shoes I have bought in the past. I normally buy 11 in woman's and all my Hoka's fit the same. I put these on and wondered if I had been shipped men's shoes. There was an extra inch and a half in the heel! I am doing an exchange for one whole size smaller. I'm hoping these fit normal. The cushion bed was nice but wobbly but that might be because they were so big on my feet.

I wear them to work and after work. Usually they last 3 to 6 months before I need new ones. Not these. I would not recommend these if you need cushioning
