Customer Reviews Hoka Hopara

Because of foot condition, I need a lot of ease for toes. When I loosened the front, the back loosened as well, too much for my narrow heel. Laborious to adjust properly. Sandals are nice and strong and have great traction. I wish shoe makers would reconsider their use of velcro and single cord closings :-(

I really like the idea of a sandal. But the foot bed needs to have more cushion.

The soles are much more comfortable then my Keens and they feel like they will last much longer. I have to wear them more to really see because the material isn't as breathable as Keens and even though I wear a size 6 in all Hokas which I absolutely LOVE the Stinson ATS 6, these seem a little big so I'm not certain yet.

Ordered in my regular size 10.5 women but it was unfortunately a size too large? Strange!

Not a great fit

Even though they are wide. I have trouble getting lt shoe on

Shipping was a little later than expected by a day--usually not a bit deal, but was leaving on a 2 week trip and these were going to be my go to--so no break in time or time to exchange. Needed to add an arch insole on the vacation, tried with sock, without socks....with insole and without. They just do not have the feel of the MAGIC of HOKA's I have loved.

With socks it's an ok shoe. However, I don't know what type of plastic was used for the bottom of the shoe, the bottom without socks burned my feet and was just not comfortable. I'm not wearing socks in the summer, so it defeats the purpose. I was hoping to have a go to pair of shoes and these did not fit the bill. Positives, the toe box is huge and the fit was good, but just not the comfort I was hoping for. For these reasons, I sent them back.

I've been wearing the Challenger style for about 5 years. They fit well and are wonderful shoes. I have another pair of Cliftons that are a little large. I wear them with very heavy socks but they aren't ideal. I really wanted these sandals to be special. Unfortunately they aren't. There are two things I don't like about them. I don't like the stiff plastic on the outside and they do not fit right. They are huge. I admit I hadn't gone to a store to try them on because I thought a size 7 in a brand would always be a size wrong. I sent them back and did not order the smaller size because of the plastic finish.

I like the look of these shoes. They are similar to some Sketchers I've bought again and again over several summers. But when I received them, I was surprised by how wide they were. They have some adjustment options, but they are still far too wide for my foot. Consequently, they rubbed a blister on my little toe after just a few hours.

Highly regret buying them; like wearing sandals made of tires. They fatigue my feet and legs. VERY sorry I bought them. Don't make my mistake. Too late for a refund, I'm sure.

Great color but not a great fit and I've never had a problem with HOKA before this style came out. Weird engineering to this shoe.

I bought these because I thought they would have the same great structure as HOKA shoes. But they're different, and the sole is different as well. They fit ok, and they look pretty much as advertised (big, clunky), but I'm disappointed in the sole quality and if I'd realized it was so different I would not have ordered them. Shipping is too expensive to return, so this is definitely something I recommend viewing and trying on before buying (I live in Alaska so don't have that luxury).

Was seeking high comfort and airflow in a hiking sandel for hotter southwest climate and moderate terrains. This shoe was comfortable to put on and stand in, but not to walk in. Upper fabrication uncomfortable on foot, made me want socks which defeated intent.

The Hopara were disappointing the tongue is too long and I wore them one day to work and both legs hurt to point of keeping me awake that night I really like the recovery shoes and had great hopes

These shoes are comfortable, but look cheap. I ordered my normal sockless size, and they were a tad short. In my opinion, might be worth half the price.

They felt stiff and uncomfortable. Did not like styling once I tried them on.

These sandals are comfortable on my feet but when I walk around any distance they make mt feet sweat on warm days. Wish my Keens had soles like Hokas.
