Customer Reviews Hoka Rincon 2

Normally by Rincons, but for some reason the Rincons 2 sole has worn off too fast compared to others? Not sure why. Will still buy Rincons, but the engineers should think about this.

Not durable as a shoe quality wise for running compared to the challengers style did Not feel right on my feet . But the look of the shoe is nice

After I fall in love with the Bondi 7, I wanted to try others to see something better. My favorite is the bondi 7 it is just amazing with the supports and its cushion way it absorb an impact on every stride. So, I just got the second pairs. James from New Jersey

I bought a pair of Rincon. Lightweight and snappy. However, Rincon doesn't have EE or wide width!!! And it was the only issue for me. Hoka ppl, please consider this in Rincon 3!!! :)))

I have been using the Rincon 2's and they feel good but not as good as the Rincon 1's. The upper mesh is not as breathable and it is tighter. With the first edition, my feet would feel great after a run and I would not have any pain. But the second edition's feel tighter and the foam feels harder (I do not know if it actually is or not). But please, put the Rincon 1's back on the market, or change the Rincon 2's. I like the shoe, but it does not feel nearly as good as the first ones.

I bought this pair of shoes primarily for running. However I found the shoes to be more comfortable mainly for walking/hiking and so much for running. Perhaps a different style would be more suetable for the type of activity.

First the Rincon 2 is the exact same shoe as the Rincon so save the extra $20 and buy the original. Unfortunately the only problem with the Rincon wasn't addressed by Hoka for the 2...Durability ! The sole is good for 100, maybe 150 miles and it is done. Still, at the price point I will continue to buy this shoe for daily training and actually have 5 pairs in the rotation. Great, great shoe just don't expect it to last very long

I wanted to love the Rincon 2s, and would have if they fit my foot better. I have had great success with Torrents, Speedgoats, and Cliftons, but the Rincon 2s come up just a little too high on the outside of my foot. As a result, my ankle bone hit the shoe with each step. 20 miles of that is not a lot of fun. Otherwise, the Rincon 2 is a great shoe, and I recommend them if they fit your foot. I can't change the shape of my foot, but I can exchange shoes (which Hoka does extremely well).

The upper on the Rincon 2 fits very poorly. Length wise it is true to size, but there is so much volume to the mesh that I feel like I should have sized down. I have to crank the laces tight, and the tongue slips and slides as well. Overall, this shoe is light and good looking, but that's all I have to say about it. The midsole is really not great, and the exposed EVA on the bottom gets shredded immediately. Unfortunately, in 2020 the Rincon is nothing special.

My first 40-50 miles on these were great, I was really happy, they fit great and though they were light had a good cushion in the sole. After another 40 miles, they have started to feel "flat". The cushioning in the sole feels like it's gone and they are really no more comfortable than my 4 year old running shoes with over 600 miles on them. I am not a heavy person (6'3" and 190 lbs), so I can't believe that these would wear like this, due to my size. I really loved these, and was ready to buy another pair for trail running, but now, I think I may be shopping for a replacement for these sooner than I wanted.

Hurt my feet at the arch when I was running. Took a while to break in and now the base is shredding.

Although I ordered xtra wide these sneakers were not wide enough. I wish you had a bigger selection of wide and 2x wide. I ended up buying New Balance 2x wide. This is the first non Hoka running shoes I have bought in 12 years.

I walk my dog daily on the street, 2-3 times every day. I only wear the shoes for these walks. After a couple of weeks I noticed the sole starting to fray in various spots. I've never had any pair of shoes do this. I have read a couple of similar reviews. I contacted Hoka and they said they could do a warranty exchange but I have to pay to ship them back. Not happy, definitely not industry trend. So over about 8 bucks they are losing a repeat customer. Still within the 30 days but I'm still on the hook. Not happy with Hoka company right now.

Was going to run in it

I have purchased several Hoka's over the las 8 years. You feel the springs in the shoes and there isn't the usual cushiony feel I have gotten with previous shoes.

to tight and after a week of running ball of my feet hurt

Foot drop to tall. Flimsy sidewalls. Not cushioned for 175 pounder more like 275 pounder. Cushion is stiff. I'll stick with other brands.

The shoes don't fit as advertised. Also a bit gaudy looking. Probably won't but again.

My first pair is terrific. Super comfortable. So I ordered a second pair that it a bit narrow. Not sure why.

Do not buy for all day use Little cushioning bondi 6 much better

The shoes are quite comfortable, but I doubt they will last long. Not very sturdy. Shoes tend to pronate my feet inward. I can buy better shoes for a lot less.

I believe my 5th pair of Rincons. Comfortable, light and responsive. Next edition needs just a little more heal rubber. When you wear through the heal rubber by 250 miles, the shoe is almost instantly shot. Once you hit the foam it disappears really fast.

Its a light weight with style and is OK for short neighborhood kind of run, however, I wouldnt recommed it for a long run. I got it around 2months back and due to rain, didnt got chance to use it much. When I had my first 10mile run in it, i felt rough below my toes and thought it may be socks or smth, but I had the same problem today and even got blisters. I didnt had this problem with my brooks and nike during long run. Since its 2 month, I cant even return it...may be I ll use it for walk.

I've only the shoes for barely 1month, I ran about 3-5 miles a week, and the soles look like it be had them for 6-8 months. The sole quality is poor. For the price of 115 dollars, I would have expected the shoes to be much more durable. At this point I am expecting my money back.
