Customer Reviews Hoka Kaha GTX

These are the ABSOLUTE BEST shoes I have ever purchased ever in my entire life. I have major ankle and foot issues and these are great. Only a 4 star rating due to price and shipping. For the money you pay for these, you should not have to wait over 10 days. You shouldn't have to wait 5 days. Also, I missed a promotion by a day and they should have given it to me anyway. I spent over $500 in a month on Hoka shoes!

I work in a warehouse and need some level of anklesupport. These are amazingly comfortable!. Only down side is I need safety toe for industrial equipment so I either need to change shoes or put on toe covers. These shoes are worth every penny!

Comfortable out of the box. True to size. Yet to determine durability but as of now I'm satisfied with my purchase.

I just began to wear these shoes yesterday and they are extremely comfortable, as one would expect from Hoka. This morning I did a short hike up the Timpanogos Cave trail, which is about 1000 ft elevation gain in 1.35 miles and back down the same slope. The shoes performed very well. I did feel some warm spots on the way down as my heel slipped around a bit. This is more about my narrow feed and not the fit of the shoes. I need to lace them a little more tightly and wear a thicker pair of socks and they will be fine. If that doesn't work, I will add Superfeet Insoles, which always seems to do the trick for me. I am impressed so far. I am trying to break them in fast, so will likely hike almost every day, in preparation for a backpacking trip to King's peak in early September. I will post an update after the trip!

Covid has denied me the opportunity to wear them much. My initial impression is favourable but I do find they fit somewhat larger than expected with the ankle support less than I would have hoped for. I am hoping thicker socks will make the fit perfect.

I bought the Kaha's for a 5-day hike through the Colombian Sierra Nevadas. Was very wet, muddy and difficult climb. I got roasted by all my friends and guides by how big & bulky my Kahas were. The locals called me "Big Foot" and "Space Man." But I was by far the most comfortable person on the trek! Great for steep, mountainous terrain. Waterproofing is fantastic. Great traction. Boots got complete covered in mud but cleaned off pretty well. Also wasn't a biggest fan of the lacing system, wish there was an easier way to lace them up. Would def recommend these for anyone serious about hiking.

I have a pair of the older Hi Tor (stability moderate, cushioning plush). I like the Kaha better because they are neutral and because of tread design feel slightly more comfortable on my heels. They are 1 oz. heavier than the the Hi Tor. The reason I don't give 5 stars is that in either shoe the Goretex makes my feet too hot.

A good pair of shoes, but the shoes are expensive.

general winter use

I want to use the hikers for work / casual wear because the design is beautiful and sleek.

Previously, hiking boots were too heavy. But Hokaoneone light and stylish hiking boots

Hiking

I am a weekly hiker in Oregon on muddy forest trails. These boots have great stability and comfort. Tried an earlier version of HOKA boots that did not have the lateral stability that these leather KAHA have. Great improvement.

I'm starting this review by saying I'm one of the biggest Hoka fans, so this isn't a referendum on the entire company. But the last 2 pair of Kaha GTX's I've purchased have not provided the plush cushioning I'm used to. My feet hurt while I'm wearing them which is totally uncharacteristic of the Hoka plush cushioning. I'm really at a lost as to why this is happening. Please advise

The shoe is currently a bit light for our extremely cold weather

I wore them twice , and sent them back. It seemed like a good boot, but the heel didn't have much padding.

The shoes are hard and heavy.

Walked 4 hours playing golf with these shoes but my feet were not as comfortable as I expected.

Not as cushioned as the speed goat. I returned...felt uncomfortable in my toe area

I own 8 pair of Hoka shoes and they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn but unfortunately this style did not make the cut. After wearing them the first day my foot hurt for a week. Something just wasn't right with this model.

Wish you made a wider width
