The shoes are very narrow. My feet were asleep 5 minutes into wearing them and I didn't even both to try running in them. I have never had to buy wide shoes in nikes, adidas, under armour, or reebok, so I don't believe I have unusually wide feet.

These are the most comfortable sneakers I've found--like walking on sturdy pillows. I have a narrow heel which often results in sock slippage due to friction with the shoe. The secure heel prevents this from happening in these shoes. Additionally, I have osteoarthritis which results in a perpetually swollen great toe joint. Often the toe box pressure is painful on this joint, but I am pain free in these shoes. Being a unisex shoe, I feel like they might be a little narrow for a man, but they're perfect for me.

These are very comfortable and the colors are great! They are secure at the heel but roomy in the toe area.

Holy crap these are the best out of the box running shoes I’ve ever owned. I typically do 1-2 miles on my treadmill every morning. I did 3 miles the first day in these with absolutely no aches or pains that this old guy has come to expect. I don’t know how long these will last but if I can get 3-4 months out of them like this I’ll be a customer for life.

This is my first pair of HOKA's and I am pleasantly impressed. I'm not a runner by trade and just getting into running after many military years being forced to run for work. And I never thought I would enjoy the feel of running by choice but these sneakers give you a great feel and makes my descion very simple. Traction, weight, and comfort is top notch. Thank you!

No traction whatsoever on these, my feet slip on pretty much any road, sidewalk, or dirt path.

I used to be a big Nike girl, moved to nobulls (hated them), before finally deciding to pony up for these. Worth every penny. They are super light, very springy, and just all around the best running shoes I've ever owned. I don't think I'll ever buy something different.

After years of using the Bondi shoes for running I decided to give the RocketX a try because I really wanted a shoe that would work well for track workouts. The Bondi has so much cushion which I love but was a disaster on the track. The first time I took the RocketX shoes on the track I felt like I was flying! Very responsive and no squish factor. I am a fan!

I love my Hokas! This is my 3rd pair. They are great for marathon training. Very light and easy push off.

I've been waiting for a shoe like this for 10 years. My body is garbage and for the first time in forever, I can RUN!

I have run about 80 miles in the Rocket X so I can get used to it before my first "fast" marathon. The response is snappy, the shoe is light, and the colors are fun! The ride is comfortable and I can tell the shoe will last the whole 26.2 and more!

I really like the shoes! They are really comfortable to walk in. Especially when working 13 hours straight. Highly recommend for those who plan to be on their feet for hours a day

This shoe would be great for track running but was not good on road surfaces around the neighborhood. I understand the desire to cut down on weight but the lack of foot support and width really makes these an ankle injury waiting to happen in my opinion. Lower back pain also started after using these.
Save some money and get the Cliftons which are excellent all around and only weigh < 2 oz more than these.

These shoes put a lot of pressure on your Achilles. Be careful when using to avoid injuries. I couldn’t use these for anything other than walking. The Mach 4 was much better feeling

The fit on these shoes is great (for me). I loved them for shorter runs. Once I started to get into 8+miles with wet roads or sweating from humidity, they are awful. They slip all over the place and there is absolutely no grip. What a waste of a great shoe that could be incredible if it were able to maintain contact with the ground.

These shoes are a dream. Bouncing on a cloud. I saw the display at Mass General Hospital and had to try Hoka out. I will never use another sneaker brand. They're fantastic for back and joint paint. Highly recommend.

The shoe is very comfortable. I use it to workout everyday but it runs big. Wished I would have bought a half size smaller.
