These shoes have a nice bounce to them while also providing support to my arch. I've been wearing them often for about a week or two but am still feeling some pain on the sides of my heels, like blisters. and there's a bit of pain by my pinky toe like it sinks in tooooo much. Maybe i just to break them in more! they're very comfy aside from this :)

I is very comfortable and cute but just too narrow for me! But then the wide is too wide so I guess I'm in between.

Bought in wide because my local stores didn't import enough in regular widths and the other colour options were meh. That's OK I bought them specifically for Recovery between long distance exercise days. I wanted something plush but not too plush that I couldn't find my feet and keel over. These shoes seemed perfect in support with lots of wiggle room for sore feet. At first I felt a bit of the arch poking but after maybe 6-8 uses the inner sole conformed to my comfort and I don't seem to feel it anymore. However the insole flattened out over time and barely a month use it isn't plush as the support appears to have collapsed. The foam is too soft. There should have been a firm stent or plate to prevent this issue. Surprisingly the outsole is not worn down despite the very scanty use of rubber. I wish for some reinforcement of the toes because they look vulnerable there. I wouldn't buy this for my teen who is rough with shoes, the toe box will surely be the first to give.

I am so happy with them. I wished I would have ordered my actual size instead of a half size bigger. I can still wear them with insoles & socks.

I like the fit and the way you can put this shoe on easier with the large thumb help in the back. Overall, I like the fit, but they are not fully soft enough for me.

I have planters fasciitis, so I added also another insert and it was very comfortable. I was just disappointed that the laces want yellow like the picture and the piece coming up in the front. It was orangey coral not exactly like picture, but I love them. I would’ve preferred the yellow detail. Hungry

I still have a right arch problem on these BUT they're far, far better than other sneakers I've worn.

would have given it a five star but the heel end of only one of the shoes was pinched and my heel was beginning to blister I had to wrestle with the end to get it to unpinch and fit fine but this had only happened once since i started using hokas

The left foot shoe is squeaky when walked on. This has happened to me before with Clifton 2's.

I really love the look of these. They were pretty stiff at first but then broke in really nicely. I love them. The right foot now has suddenly started squeaking loudly. I don't know why and it's kinda annoying. I guess I'll just put my headphones louder.

Not a fan of the arch support. Something changed in the design between the 7 and the 8 and not a fan. It hurt my arches for awhile. It's feeling better now but still not as comfortable as the 7's.

I got white/white, and I ADORE wearing them for my runs. They're light-weight but still have enough cushion that my feet don't hurt afterwards. The only issue I've had was that, without tying a heel lock with the laces, my heels would slip out of them. I didn't see that as a major issue, so I kept running in them with a heel lock, and I'm very happy. (I'm training for a half marathon right now)

I don't feel like the quality of the shoe will hold up due to the material that it is made out of. I go walking and running everyday and the quality of the shoe is not as good as the Clifton Edge.

This show has helped a lot with my low back pain that I deal with due to a mild case of scoliosis, however, my heels now hurt quite often. I work in healthcare and work long hours.

I'm 42 and extremely fit...like I still get carded regularly. I don't want to wear orthopedic shoes that look like orthopedic shoes. In fact, I don't need orthopedic shoes that look like orthopedic shoes...I found some great ones (Saucony Kinvara...wait, those aren't orthopedic, just neutral, this is all a bunch of BS, if you want to find a great fitting shoe, it's a lot faster to talk to an expert, like a pedorthist.) Fortunately, I've been talking to runners about their training, cross-training, and foot-wear for 17+ years (I'm a chiropractor with certifications in sports therapy, several soft tissue therapies, and acupuncture), so I went with something else. These do seem very comfy. and when they make them in a size and color appropriate for me, I plan to buy them as a recovery shoe.

These shoes are okay, not awesome which is what I expected. They are not as comfortable as my Brooks. Nor do they offer any more support. Overall I am not unhappy with them and will wear them but probably won't buy Hokas again.

Fit was narrower than a 6.5 wide should feel. Struggling to find the correct Hoak shoe but still trying.
