Customer Reviews Hoka Speedgoat 4

Love my previous HOKAS (Bondi) but these Speedgoats are not quite as comfortable yet. Still provide a lot of cushion but pinches my metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint some.

They run a little big and feel and look a little like plastic.

The only issue I have is they are tight across the toes.

I love the speedgoat 3. I have 3 pairs. The speedgoat 4 has a longer tongue that digs in to my foot. Good cushioning. Feels wider that the 3. It's a solid shoe with lots of support, but not as good as the 3.

I'm a nurse comfort wise these shoes are amazing. However the front part of the shoe on top is coming off and I haven't had them long.. I won't buy this style again but I will purchase Hoka does for work!! My feet fell amazing

I tried these on at specialty running store and immediately loved the cushion and fit. The store didn't have the color I wanted, so I purchased them here online. I was so very excited when I took them out to the trails, but came home very disappointed. The tongue rubbed and cut into my ankles. Although the cushion, color and fit in the rest of the shoe hit the mark, the tongue rubbing into my ankles isn't something I'll be able to ignore. A previous reviewer suggested to those of us having a poor experience with the tongue that we just cut it. But why should we do that after paying so much and not knowing whether that will only make the edge worse? Definitely can't return them after that. Happy to hear they work for others! I'd recommend folks at least give em whirl, especially with Hoka's 30 day guarantee.

I ran in the speedgoat 3 and loved them. I completed one 10 mile run in the speedgoat 4 and had terrible chaffing and blisters from the new tongue design. The new tongue does not provide and padding against the top of my foot and ankle. It is too thin and creases with every step causing major sore on top of my ankle. Please redesign the tongue to be more padded like version 3.

I love this shoe except for the tongue. It's completely unpadded, asymmetrical, and cuts into the top of my ankle with every step. I had to purchase longer socks to wear with them to prevent blisters, still might return them.

I feel really off balanced running in these. And they are also a bit to wide and big for me.

I have a variety of Hoyas in my closet and love them. However, these Speedgoat 4's are too narrow, even though I ordered and received the wide size like the others. I use the narrowest socks with them and have stretched them a bit and tie them loosely. I should have just returned them!

I love the brand, both of my sisters wear them, what you have on file is a pair I sent back, and have since ordered another pair, they are the Stinson ATR 6. My biggest issue is I ordered a 7.5 reg. and I received Wide. I love them except for that.

I was bummed that I didn't love these like I loved my Bondi's and my Carbon's. I've been doing more trail running so I was hoping to find a Hoka sneaker with better grip. I run high mileage so I need shoes that last and have great support. These were very stiff and uncomfortable. The tongue cut into the front of my ankle and rubbed it raw. In just three weeks a hole appeared on the top above by big toe. Overall just not happy with the purchase. Way too expensive for the quality.
