Customer Reviews Hoka Akasa

I absolutely love these sneakers! I suffer from foot pain and usually have to buy special insoles for my shoes, but these Hokas are so well-designed and offer great support so I don’t need special insoles. I think the color and style is cute too!

Wow. That's all i can say. I have the most difficult feet in the world....Ladies size 11, i under pronate, i have major bunions, i've had stress fractures, etc. I don't think i've ever found shoes that fit so flawlessly as these. Literally out of the box and onto my feet and i was in heaven. That never happens! What a major difference from the worn out cheap sneakers i was wearing prior to these! Money well spent. Already took them for a spin on an evening walk tonight and they were great. For me, these were true to size and I did not need to size down as some reviews suggest. Five stars all the way. The blue color is great!

I have two major foot issues that reoccur if I don't wear supportive shoes, Plantar Fasciitis and Morton's Neuroma. This brand was recommended, ordering shoes online is risky, there is much choice in this brand, much selection available. I ordered a size larger than usual and the fit is ideal!

I bought my first pair of Hoka because I am no longer able to go to the gym, due to covid. Instead, I am walking 10k steps a day, sometimes 15K+. So I needed a good sneaker for heavy duty walking. I really love these! They feel different than any other sneaker I have ever walked in. Something about the heel propels your foot forward when you walk. There is the perfect amount of cushion for comfort. I found the fit true to size (versus Nike or Under Armor which seem to run a little small). Also, they aren't too wide, but accommodate my bunion on my left foot. My Asics - which are super comfy, but look a little orthopedic or Forrest Gumpish. Hoka feels more stylish without giving up the comfort!

I've been wanting to try this Akasa for quite some time but have experienced Hoka's sizing to be very erratic and just didn't know what size to order. I normally buy a size 10 in athletic shoes because I prefer to wear a more cushioned sock. I saw that Zappos recommended sizing down on this shoe, so I ordered a 9. It was perfect! I'm really happy with the style, the comfort and the gray color. So happy that I'm planning to order another color! Thanks Zappos...you're the best!!

I am usually a size 5 in shoes and 5.5 in running sneakers. I ordered a size 5.5 in the Akasa, but they were too long, even with thick socks. I ordered the Bondi 6 in size 5 instead because the tread on the Bondi 6 seems like it will be better for walking on trails. The Akasa seemed like they would be great on concrete or hard smooth surfaces.
