Wore these shoes On a trip to New York. We walked an average of 7 miles per day for three days. My feet never hurt while wearing them or ached after wearing them in the evenings. I have bunions and my feet are usually sore. These shoes have super thick soles and feel springy with each step. I love them.

I am an avid runner and was devastated when I came down with Plantar Fasciitis that was so painful I couldn't walk. I went to my favorite running store and bought Hoka Arahi 3 upon their recommendation. I had to take a few months off from running, but I wore my Hokas everywhere. Now I am back to running. My Hoka Arahi 3s made a huge difference.

This is my second pair of Hoka Ones and am a little disappointed that this wide is not quite as wide as the last pair I purchased. Though they do stretch as my foot warms the shoe, so I still like them—just not quite as much as the last pair.

wonderful wonderful wonderful! I have arthritis in several places in my feet and have trouble finding shoes that don't either hurt during my 3-mile daily walk, or hurt all day afterwards. Even my Brooks and Saucony forever go-tos have begun to hurt. These are the absolute best ever right out of the box. They are like walking on air, yet provide sturdy support and sure footing. The light color is great-looking! So happy to have found Hoka!

These shoes are true to size. I like the softer material on the toe area so there is no rubbing. They are very stable due to the pronation support. I'm 78 years old and walk 3-4 times a week. I won't wear anything else!

My heels often hurt after working out and running, so I was looking for something to support my high arches. These shoes have been great- I don't even need additional customized insoles. It feels like I'm walking on a cloud. I was first hesitant to buy them because they looked so tall; however, body weight compresses it just enough so it doesn't look odd. I wore them to strength training and felt they rocked too much, so I wouldn't recommend them circuits- BUT with that said, the extra cushion well supported my feet with all the heavy weights I was lifting. While they don't have the flexibility as say the Tivra, they still offer some "give" so you can get full range of motion. Their traction kept me from slipping doing runners and burpies. The only downfall: the store I bought these from failed to inform me of the other colors and I purchased what was in-stock and I wish I hadn't know about the other options.

These are extremely stable shoes. I have cracked cartilage in my MTP joint and these shoes allow me to run pain-free. Beware though, they run about 1/2 size large. I use the same size as my street shoes.

Great support, especially since my feet pronate. Super comfortable. I'm a senior citizen and not a runner but I do walk 2-3 miles 4 or 5 times per week. It especially helps my knee which has no cartilege. No rubbing due to soft material on upper part of the shoe. I can withstand Costco and Walmart shopping without aching feet or knee. Wouldn't own anything else. I'm a 78 year old female.

I am an RN on my feet for 12 hours every night, but still manage to get home feeling pain-free! I love that I found tennis shoes that look great AND feel great! Highly recommend

With my orthotics (which provide arch support), these feel wonderful. From the shoe description, I expected decent arch support with the original innersole. That was not the case. I would say these provide only minimal arch support. It is easy to replace the innersole with one that is more supportive, but using your own orthotic increases the cost, so I was hoping not to have to do that. Nonetheless I'm keeping the shoes and rate them highly because they are like walking on clouds, very light-weight and comfortable.

Cushioned well with good arch support, but not too bulky or heavy. If I'm being honest, I hate running (despite the fact that I run almost everyday), but I feel like I could just keep on running forever in these. They're awesome shoes. Would highly recommend!

I over-pronate and was looking for a shoe to replace my Brooks Ariels that have been redesigned to the point they no longer work for me. I wear a 10.5 women's, and these are very roomy, but not overly so. My feet tend to be on the wide side of medium width. I have plenty of room in the toe box and room for cushioned socks. I use an inexpensive insole when I want to wear very thin socks. I also use the lace loop holes for a snug fit at the heel. If they are durable, I will continue to buy these. I can wear them all day with zero foot or ankle pain.

Comfortable right from the box. They are light but supportive and nice looking. I over pronate with my left foot and I can feel the difference when I walk. I did order a half size down as was suggested and am glad I did. I normally wear a 9W and 8 1/2 W fits perfect. Going to order another color before they are all gone. Thanks Zappos for letting me try and return shoes that don't fit or work for me.

My only comment that as someone with narrow feet and a narrow heel, I wish they came in widths. I walk a lot and love these.

This is my second pair. The first pair I was fitted in a store and he had me go with a wide. I have never worn ad wide before. But I tried it. I couldn't believe the feel and support. It was awesome. I have very little arch and as a kid, my shoes had to be built up with cookies for arch support. These gave me the support I needed. I walk bout 3 miles every day with my dog and I can feel a difference in my knee and also the wear of the shoe. This is the first pair of shoes that have worn evenly on the bottom instead of one part of the shoe versus another part. They are a little clunky looking but they are so light weight

I am running a half marathon in October and have used Arahi 3 for my training and long distance runs. So far I am pretty happy with my purchase. I did have to exchange my shoes for a half size down, but other than that I love how light and resposinve these shoes are plus its stability features.

I love this Arahi 3 and plan to buy more. I have high arches, chronic runners knee and mild overpronation on one foot only. I've had to mostly run on treadmill lately and been struggling with aching calves and painful ball of my overpronating foot. These shoes have solved this issue for me and have decreased my knee pain a bit as well. There seems to be some arch support but my arches are extremely high. For my feet, this shoe provides excellent cushion with support and structure. I also really love the style, it's clean and minimalist and looks cool. Bit slippery in the rain.
