Customer Reviews Hoka Rincon

Very comfy, light, fits well with lots of room on the width and length. The light part is the best

I wanted to move from a cushioned running shoe (Elevon), to a faster shoe that has some cushion. Rincon fits the bill. I am 6'2" at 190# and was a little reluctant to switch from my Elevons, but these were almost an imperceptible trade off to a faster/lighter shoe. Rincon's feel ever so slightly narrower up front, but this will likely disappear as they break in. Did a fast 10K the same day I received them, no issues at all (no blisters/soreness). 12.5 Blk/Wht Rincons purchased.

These shoes were amazing, and took the beating of hundreds of miles, and still maintained a good feeling of cushion and support. The combination of a lightweight feel, and cloud like cushion, along with an excellent upper and supportive 10mm heel drop make for one of the best shoes I have ever worn.

I am 50 and thought my running days were over. Previously after 3 miles i would feel strong pain in my calves. With the Rincon no more pain, just a very comfortable yet firm shoe. I am so hooked that i wear them everywhere.

I work on my feet for hours so I need a comfortable shoe to work affectively. These are perfect! Light weight and stylish.

My headline says it all. Great style, great looking, super light, easy to run in, comfy, great support of foot all the way up to the hip! I wish there was a little more resistance of the bend at the toes, but still better than most (I'm particularly picky about this point because of a hairline fracture, so I don't mark it down as 90% of the people will never notice it, and if you are like me these are STILL GREAT SHOES, so get them!).

Okay, I've recently become completely consumed with running & everything that's associated with it. I watch every running YouTube's out there & have spent way too much money on running gear especially running shoes. Unfortunately with the current "shelter in place" initiative I can't go to a specialty shoe store geared to running so I've ran (no pun intended) the gamut watching YouTube reviews to figure out which shoe would work best for me. Being new to running I never heard of Hoka but I'm glad I clicked on the right video. Originally I went with the Carbon X but found I'm not ready for those yet. The next pair I got were Rincon's & let me tell you...it's like butter. I've had other brand running shoes when I was just a treadmill runner but now I'm running on the mean streets of San Francisco so I need good cushioned shoe & those are the Rincon's. I got them today & they feel great....only slight issue is the right shoe is little tight on the ole' pinky toe but not on the left....I'm going to try maybe a thinner sock, I'm currently wearing some darn tough socks meant for hiking so they're probably too thick...anyway, Rincon's are great & Hoka has it on lockdown with color ways...Man! there are some ugly shoes out there. Highly recommend these, tell a friend :)

Have run in various versions of Clintons, Bondis, Speedgoats, Challenger ATRs, EVO Mafataes, Stinson ATR, Torrent, Mach, Nepali. Lots of Hokas. The Rincon is fantastic. Wider, roomies, and more flexible than most Hokas. It runs more naturally and with more room for toe splay than any other Hoka I've tried. I really like it as a replacement for Challenger ATRs. I've been running on mixed road and trail with the Ricons. I like them better than any other Hoka trail shoe I've run in before. I'm not sure if its the flexibility or room for toe splay but I find them to be significantly more stable on trails than any other Hoka. The Rincons fit and are minimal structure is much more like Altra, which in my view is fantastic and long awaited. They also run smoothly with a very nice transition. I don't feel forced into one particular foot strike and can switch fore to rear better than other Hokas. EVO Mafate 2s are still probably faster but less versatile.

I usually have the Clifton 6 for slow and long training days. About a week or two before my local thanksgiving 10k, I noticed that all my racing shoes were worn out badly. This is where I discovered the rincones. They are fast, light, surprisingly cushioned, but most of all, budget friendly. I hit a 32:08 with my distance being 6.24 miles. Now I keep this shoe constantly in rotation as it has helped prevent injuries. I'm really looking forward to the next generation of rincons!

i'm a fairly new runner only running a few years. Have dealt with all sorts of planar fasciitis issues. Finding a comfortable shoe was a must. I have Speedgoat2, Evo Mafate, Clifton 6, but then I tried the Rincon. Within the first run it made me want to run more. Fit amazing out of the box. These shoes have become my mainstay running shoe. Always comfy, always supportive, 180 miles later they still feel amazing under me. I wish there was a better way to make the midsole last longer but it doesn't seem to affect performance at all. Would love to see a carbon plate version of this shoe, otherwise i'm going to be buying this model over and over!
