These are wide enough for someone with wide feet. However they are about 3/4 inch too long; my toes have too much empty space. But it is the correct size given the width and fit. Better than narrow shoes for sure.

Elastic laces
Good sole support
Stiff shell
Be weary of their online sizing guide

I've purchased 5 pairs over the pack couple years. All our the most comfortable shoes I own!

fit and size are perfect for a retired athlete, average weight (165 lbs). Toe box roomy enough but not sloppy big. Shoes are a light weight shoe, not meant to last and I would say not meant to run in. A good, black casual sneaker for mostly indoor use. Sole wears out quickly, 3-6 months approximately with daily use. A good comfortable shoe and expect to purchase a few pairs a year for the comfort right out of the box. I suppose Hoka could make the sole a little longer lasting at the expense of some comfort.

Too bad they are so hard to find. I hope they are not being discontinued.

Really like the firm cushion support, although they are still too tight at the bridge of my feet, even after loosening the laces. Would buy again just because of the support.

I recently purchased some wide shoes that ended up not really being wide. The shoes are very good though, just thought they could have been a little wider. I would purchase again though.

Like them alot. Only issue is color. Was hoping for a deeper Navy color. Certainly has purple hue.

Size felt a little tight for a 2E but the style is great. Bottoms are a little slick on slippery ground!

These shoes fit decently, not awesome - which is what I hoped for. They are still slightly narrow, but I have an extra wide foot. I had to unlace and keep the laces quite loose near the toebox, which I don't need to do with my other HOKA's - specifically my Clinton's.

overall a nice shoe with nice styling and nice stability with a good heel drop that helps a neutral gait. but with so many options out there, even at this price point it's a meh. a couple things hold it back from being great. 1. it comes laced ridiculously narrow. the lacing options allow for a lot of variation which helps make it better if you take the time to relace but the mid-forefoot is really narrow 2. the laces are super slick. unless you are double knotting, they will loosen no matter what technique you use. this can get annoying as you may have to adjust or retie often to keep your foot stable in the shoe.

Purchased shoe online. I really liked the look. Order came, shoe looked great, not wide enough. I returned the shoe and ordered a pair that the website suggested in a color I liked. They are great.

Hoka's are the only shoes I buy and I've always been satisfied with the models that I buy for various activities (Bondi, Stinson, Recovery). My favorite all around shoes are my Hupana EM's that I bought a few years ago. They fit great, are comfortable, and I like the white soles. When wearing them I enjoy looking down and seeing the white soles stick out about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. It looks good and feels to me like I'm getting extra support. The pair I have is starting to show some wear so I ordered a new pair... same size 12 Wide. The new model is now called Hupana Flow. The first pair I got was too narrow and the white sole had shrunk significantly and barely sticks out around the shoe. Hoka has a great return policy so I returned them and started looking around at other brands. I couldn't find other brands to my liking so I ordered another pair of Hupana Flow's thinking maybe the first pair was off. Turns out that the second pair was the same as the first pair (too narrow and skimpy soles) but decided to keep them and continue to look around. They feel a little tight and are good enough but I'm disappointed.

Despite choosing a model that has a high heel-to-toe drop, I still get the feeling that this shoe has a negative heel. Not since Birkenstocks became popular decades ago, have I been comfortable with a negative heel.
Having high arches and instep and a sizing differential, I must choose carefully, and these support me in all the right places...except the heel. Am I imagining things? The M Ora Recovery Slides do NOT exibit this trait. Otherwise, both are comfortable.

Very comfortable casual shoe. Not sturdy enough for intense athletic activity like basketball but very useful for day to day activity.

Product fits great and feels great. However, the color didnt match the commercial photos on your website. The shadow graphics do not come through - it looks all one color. Other than that, very pleased.

I really like them, I use them a lot, but I do feel they're a little narrow, at least more than other models like the Clifton, they're more a shoe to use with jeans and a t shirt than an actual running shoe, but I could see myself running a few km on them if I have to.

Great for casual wear and moderate distance (couple miles) walking. For some reason it was 1/2 size shorter than the numerous other Hoka shoes I have purchased. I returned the 10.5, got an 11 and now I'm enjoying it for casual wear as well as moderate distance (couple miles) walking. For longer distances I wear the Clifton model which is great!

Great looking shoe. However, inner orange advertising label rolled up and cause blister on foot. I have removed it and hope all will be well.
