Customer Reviews Hoka Rincon 3

I bought the Rincon2 last year. They were the best shoes I have ever bought! I wanted to order a few pair, but they are no longer available. I bought the Rincon3, thinking they would be pretty much they same except for color choices. I couldn't have been more wrong! They are horrible! I will no longer order Hoka shoes.

OK, so I NEVER complain about things on these questionaires. Except for today. I am very displeased with my purchase of the Women's Rincon 3 #1119396/CRYW size 6.5B USA shoes. I bought them in April. I finally got around to wearing them literally 4 times, for generic casual use. The tread on the bottom has already separated. I've never had this happen before. Not on any shoe, including HOKAS. I bought several pair with my purchase, for my husband and I. It's already passed the 30 day return guarantee. I am hoping you will still honor this and replace them with an identical product. I loved the color. I got several compliments on it. Too bad the shoes I got, weren't glued together. Good luck with any you may buy. I will certainly test all my HOKA shoes within the 30 day period after purchase, from now on. This is not acceptable after such limited use and expense.

I would rate the Rincon a 5 star except for the tongue. The tongue is not long enough and is made out of material that folds up. This makes the shoe a miserable experience every single time I put it on. Once it is on after the strugle it is a great shoe.

It felt too big and felt strange when my foot would strike the ground. I've used cushioned shoes before but this one wasn't my cup of tea.

These shoes are awful compared to the Bondi. I would pay the extra money to get the Bondi next time.

The quality of the products seems goo however, the shoes do not fit my foot properly. Also, the rounded profile of the bottom of the shoe is contrary to the gate in my walk. I have tried to return the shoes onlline but it says they are not returnable.

They are very light weight but hurt my toe. I bought two pairs of Asic's that don't hurt. Hoka's, for me, were a waste of money.

I previously owned only Hoka Bondi shoes; these were less cushiony and since Rincon does not come in EE or EEEE widths, they were too tight for me.

I have previously purchased a pair of HOKA shoes and was in love with them so decided to finally replace with new ones but unfortunately this pair was no where near as good. The support was not the same my feet hurt and they are just not comfortable as I expected them to be .. would not recommend.

I'm sure they are great shoes for some people. I prefer the cushion of the Bondi 7 which the Rincon did not have. The exchange process was super easy. I haven't bought another brand of shoe since my first Bondi's years ago. Best shoe made.

Purchased my first Hoka about a month ago (Clifton 8) and was blown away with the comfort, so I immediately ordered another pair. I wanted a red shoe, so I found the Rincon 3 available. Boy, there is no comparison between the 2! I walk 5-6 miles every day and my feet were killing me after only 3 days. I immediately noticed the Rincons were not as comfortable, but now I have blisters on 3 of my toes. If these were the first Hokas I ordered, I never would have ordered another pair again. I guess I'll donate this pair to charity and chalk it up to a lesson learned. I'll stick with the Clifton's from now on

If you were expecting an upgrade from the Rincon 1 or 2, forget it. The upper and midsole have changed, NOT for the better! If you loved the Rincon 1 or 2, it is doubtful that you will like the 3. Hoka seems to be following the path of the Clifton 1, going from best to worst between iterations 1 through 5. Too bad. And to make things worse, Hoka has thoroughly down-graded its Carbon X 3.

Purchased at the end of February, and I have already worn through the soles. There is no tread left, and they no longer have the same level of comfort compared to new. I will most likely not purchase another pair again. Disappointed to say the least.

A bit to snug with the fit. I wish I would have stuck with the Carbon X2. I've had the Rincons before but I'm getting pain in my feet and calf's when running the the Rincon 3.

This product kills my feet! I've had $40 shoes feel better than these..

I work in healthcare and am on my feet most of the day. These shoes in particular left my feet aching after a solid 40hr work week.

for working-I am a nurse

I have run in the Rincon, Rincon 2 and the Rincon 3 is the worst ever. The have change the foam, made it stiffer, and reduced the Tung, and made the laces narrower. By being stiffer, it sounds like your running with Monty Python and the guy that clapped 2 coconut shells together. Shorter Tung and the thing slides downward and the narrow laces cut the top of your foot when this happens. Why did you take a perfect shoe and destroy it ???? So it wore out a little too quick... big deal. Go back to the original shoe...... please. Thanks.

Very narrow and weird toebox.

It was nothing liked i had hope it would be for the amount I paid for. Very disappointed

Too hard on foot

Felt too light, cheap and flimsy.

for distance walking. I get to about 2 miles and my feet start to hurt.
