Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 2

I always wear size eights in my Hokas and these fit perfectly as usual. I ended up having to get black, which is not a shoe color I usually get but it was the only one available in size 8 however they look very sharp and I’m happy with them we did have a little bit of a mixup they sent me a pair of used shoes Which I assume were a pair that were returned to them for some crazy reason and somehow got put in the shoes to be sent out to people who buy shoes but Zappos was quick to fix the problem and refund me and sent me another pair of shoes Which were not used there’s a big difference between the used ones and the new ones I hope that is not a sign that if you wear them for a month they wear down quickly as the used shoes were totally broken down. However my Hokus have always worn well in the past so I do not see it as a problem. I will see in a month. Photo is after my 2 mile walk this morning.

I have plantar fasciitis in my right foot and need shoes that correct for over pronation with excellent arch support. These are my second pair of Hoka's and they are worth every penny! I have been taking 2 short walks a day outside on concrete and my foot remains pain free.

This is my favorite Hoka style and I own 4 other styles. Plan to buy more. These have a wide toe bed and fit true to size. I am a nurse and work 12 hr shifts!

Best running shoes ever. My second pair. They lasted 9 months with heavy street use (15 miles per week). I bought a half size up so I could remove insoles and use my orthotics.

I have run in New Balance for 35 years and recently began to have aches and pains from my toes to my hips. I ordered these shoes for support while walking and working. So far they have been like a miracle and I have been able to complete my runs without discomfort. I will be purchasing an additional pair!

Super happy with these. I have plantar fasciitis, I over pronate and I have an arch that's falling on my left foot. (I think I might be inheriting flat feet from my dad.) I'm still a heavy exerciser and I've been using this shoe for all my daily exercises. It's fantastic. I just ordered another pair in another color. Comfy, light, great arch support, no need for my own arches. Seems like they always change a shoe once I really get to like it. I hope this style remains the same b/c I'll be a wearer for life if it does! I found them to be true to size for me.

Five stars! Just started a new job working in the copy room in a local high school. Most of my 10k I get at work involves a lot of standing, pivoting and short bursts of under 250 steps at a time. I also have bunions and plantar fasciitis on both feet. Wore these shoes and no complaints! First time I went home and didn’t have to rub my bunions! Well worth the money.

I love Hoka shoes. I have 3 pair and use them for exercise, running errands and traveling.

I have troublesome feet and after trying on about 7 pairs ( thank you Zappos for being patient with me as I kept exchanging sneakers ?as if I was in a store) these fit the bill. Since I'm spending so much money for good, supportive, comfortable shoes it is important to me that I find the perfect pair. I over pronate when walking and have capsulitis in my 2nd toe and arthritis and bone spurs in my big toe. These sneakers are supportive and comfortable. I put in my own custom made orthotic although you can go without with these. I found they run 1/2 size smaller. I'm usually a 9 and I finally settled on 9.5. I'm now walking on clouds ?? ?

The most comfortable sneakers around for overpronation and plantar fasciitis!

These shoes are so comfortable! I am a nurse and in my feet all day. I usually wear ASICS nimbus or danskos, and I have noticed that my feet have been sore after standing/walking all day. These shoes are great for comfort & support! I didn’t need to break them in, they felt great for the get go.
