Customer Reviews Hoka Rincon

I've never worn a wide width in my life and the right shoe squeezed my foot until it was numb. Chalked it up to needing a good running in. Ran about 20 miles all together in them. Got worse. They were comfortable outside of that.

I was excited to try these shoes. I had heard a lot of good things about them. Even though I over pronate, I have used neutral support shoes before and been fine for short runs. These are very light shoes and cushion soles to the max. But made my inner heel feel like I'm going to roll an ankle. They probably would be good for somebody that doesn't over pronate at all

I tried on a pair at my local running store today and they were just too wide for my narrow foot. I had the laces pulled as tight as possible and the fit still felt sloppy. I really wanted to like this shoe for the price and light weight. Was looking at them as a possible race day shoe. I've worn the original Tracer, Cavu, Cavu 2, Mach 2, and most recently the Carbon X. On some of those I get some toe pucker when the laces are pulled snug enough to make my narrow foot feel secure. The Rincon I had the laced pulled as tight as possible and it still felt loose on my foot. The only way I could get the laces any tighter would be if I didn't let then co through the slots in the tongue.

Toe box caused blisters on both pinky toes and also callouses on both big toes. Had to return to hoka. The rest of shoe felt good and light but toe pain was too much.

Received these in the mail and was so excited to use them but sadly they are not true to size at all my bondi 6 along with all my other shoes are 9.5 and fit perfectly. These however are far too large in the length and width I can put a thumb in the spacing between my big toe and the front of the shoe and the laces have to be tightened a lot just to get that stable fit. I was just truly sadly disappointed when I waited for a shoe that does not fit and now I have to wait even longer for the exchange hopefully I receive my replacement soon and hopefully it fits. I would not recommend anyone buying these shoes unless they are in person and properly sized

Returned

Sizing model is one size bigger, so in spite of looking precise (asking tons of questions about other shoes size you have) the size measurement is completely misleading. In spite of that, I tried to exchange it, send it back one pair and after 2 weeks still waiting for a signal. The second pair was even impossible to return it and exchange it

The sneakers were defected. I returned the defected sneakers and i was refunded the charged minus $8.67 shipping charges. I should not have to pay shipping fees for a defected pair sneakers. Shame on you.

They felt light and flimsy and devoid of the soft marshmallow feel I have come to associate with Hoka shoes. After two short runs my feet are throbbing from lack of cushion and support.

great shoe, destroyed the sole in 50 road miles

I was warned about this shoe but bought anyway, 25 miles on the road and the sole was done. I train in Clifton 6 and Bondi and love the shoes not sure what happened here Hoka but thank you for the quick exchange to another product. Really the only Hoka I have had a problem with. From what I have heard maybe you should re-think this shoe......

It's really a 5 star shoe ,but I gave it 1 star so Hoka would read my request here. Hey Dexter (Hoka), I want an upper just like the Rincon and a cushioned stack like the Bondi. This Rincon is 6.98 oz and my Bondi 6 is 10.26 oz. I'm getting a little tired of the extra weight. I want you to design a shoe that has the light weight materials and construction of the Rincon with a stack as high as the Bondi. I want the max. cushioning but I want a lighter weight Bondi. I would not expect it to be 6.98 oz. with the extra foam to bring the stack up to 33 in the mid and 37 in the heel . It would still be a light shoe by adding 5 mm extra on the bottom foam. Lunch is over. Get back to the drawing board and make this thing happen. Call it the Bondi 7 , or the Rindi or the Boncon. Get it done Hoka

Purchased these because all the reviews and hype around Hoka. Tried these out and put about 30 miles on them and the soles started to breakdown. I went up a 1/2 size because their narrow. The store I bought them from suggested a half size up. Ran a 15k road race and sustained terrible blisters on both feet.
