Customer Reviews Hoka Anacapa Mid GORE-TEX®

Sadly had to return the boot. It was too narrow. Wish it came in wide.

My feet get really hot with the gortex. I'm an M.S. patient. I live in severe cold climate and I walk around city. I'm thrilled that they keep my feet so dry through all of the snow, the traction, the support is THE BEST, but will you make something for warmer weather? My feet get way too warm and that usually leads to numbness. I can't imagine wearing these in the warmer months.

Good

I tried so hard to getting feet used to these. I hike weekly and I've been waiting for Hoka to release a yellow hiking shoe for women for so long. I ordered these as soon as I saw they were available. I also own the Hoka Sky Kaha backpacking boots, a pair of Hoka trail runners and a pair of Hoka road running shoes, so my feet usually love Hoka's. These ones were just too tight and made my toes numb. I'm so bummed. If Hoka could make these in a wide, I'd order them in a heartbeat and would be willing to pay even more for them.

I ended up returning these because my right ankle bone got a little irritated. I think it was because the fabric is very thin (presumable to keep the shoes as lightweight as possible) and I could feel the hardware from where the laces go through the fabric.

I was so exited getting this but the are extremely arrow

I have 2 pairs of Hokas Women's size 8 that I wear all the time as they are my very most comfortable shoes. So I ordered these hiking boots and they fit nothing like my others. I returned to my local store.

Everyone has their own preference for fit, so I read the comments with that in mind. I ended up choosing my own size 9. It was not too tight nor was it loose, I do a lot of hiking up and down hills and over rocks and I want a snug fit that will not have my foot moving in the boot. For my own preference, I don't want my foot to slip forward (toe crush) or move as I'm prone to blisters on the bottom of my feet and heels. When I first put them on the ankle was not right, I did have to adjust the tongue, ensure it doesn't wrap over either ankle bone. After a bit of adjustment, I hiked with no problems at all.

This is my second pair. The first time I bought these it was to walk the Camino in Spain. While others compared blisters in the evenings I had none. Zero. I bought these just before I left and hoped for the best. I was so pleased to realize I had the best. I only walked 12 to 15 miles a day on paths that were everything, pavement, rocks, dirt, old roman roads, and a lot of uphill and downhill. I feel like I can feel the ground beneath my feet , which is important to me and yet the sole has so much cushion that my feet feel wrapped in a pillow. These hiking boots make me want to get up and walk so I am headed to Spain again in September. I will never buy another brand of hiking boot.

Because of foot issues, Hoka are the only shoes I wear. Everywhere, everyday. So when I needed hiking shoes, of course I turned to Hoka. These fit great, are cushiony, structured, just what I needed. BUT there is a design flaw, either that or my ankle is flawed. There is a seam that hits right on my ankle bone and it's very, very uncomfortable. I purchased 2 sizes to see which would fit best, so I thought, well, I'll just try the larger shoe - nope same seam. UGH! I thought about trying to fix it myself, but didn't feel like at this price point I should have to make adjustments to the physical shoe, and maybe it wouldn't even work and then I'm stuck with them. So back they go, unfortunately. No hiking boots for me.

I used the Hoka hiking boots throughout Scotland. I don't think I would have survived without them. They were comfortable and incredibly stable.

Loved wearing these in Yosemite last week. comfortable and dry on the wet and snowy trails.

Loved that this would be waterproof and supportive, but got a lot of ankle pain because of the construction of the upper part of the shoe. Hard spots and rubbing where all of the grommets/connectors are for the tongue and the lace holders, mostly at the ankle bone area. The design seems flawed.

I purchased these for a trip to Alaska coming up in September. I needed comfy water resistant shoes. I have been wearing them during daily routine stuff and they are so comfortable and they do keep my feet dry! Love the color and love the feel.

10km minimum and max of 13km per day along Nakasendo trail. Loved that i got this pair.
