Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 6

I bought my first pair of Hokas recently, and within three weeks I had my second and third pairs. The Arahi 6 is my favorite for daily walking around - equal parts comfortable and supportive. I got a pair for my wife, too, since she is a teacher and is on her feet all day. She loves hers also. The Bondi 8s are good, but more "squishy" feeling, and I like my Challenger 7s for jogging. I'm built big, and I've had heel spurs in the past. There's enough cushion in the Challengers that that isn't a problem. All these styles are great choices, but for an everyday wearer, the Arahi 6 is my favorite. Trying the Gaviotas next.

Very comfortable for walking.

I purchased these shoes for my son who is in the restaurant management business and is on his feet for 10 to 12 hours a day. He said they are game changers as far as how his back, legs, feet and overall body feels after a long day's work. He will be purchasing more.

I got these 4 months ago and I love them. A cheery color. At the gym or on the street - the compliments keep coming.

I like the comfit and cushions, stability..

Very comfortable. I am recovering from heel surgery and these shoes are great!

Walking every day

Like the J frame. Great for high arches. Comfortable and light

Very comfortable, very cushiony, easy to put on and take off, nicely constructed, durable and aesthetically pleasing!

These by far are the best running shoes by far.

This is my first time buying hoka shoes and I fit wonderful. They feel wonderful. My only issue is I should have gotten them a 1/2. A sized bigger, but that was my Bad.

Most comfortable shoes I've ever worn

Great color teal/ green combo. Comfortable as soon as you put them on!

I always seem to get a blister on my heel with new sneakers and I have been a fan of Hoka Recovery Slides for quite some time so thought I would try their sneakers as the back flared out some. It was a fantastic hunch!! They are so comfortable and I have had not one issue wearing them all week long for my workouts. So happy with them and love the blue green colors!

These shoes are very comfy & don't hurt my feet at all.

My husband had his hip replaced in mid-July. Due to the hip pain he had, he's led a pretty sedentary lifestyle, so his required PT was going to be more activity than he has been used to. He bought a pair of high end, name brand, slip ons as he had to be careful about bending over the first few weeks. While he was diligent about his PT, he would come in from walks or sessions with deep muscle pain. He chalked it up to (1) being inactive and (2) muscle pain from the surgery itself. I had been wearing Hokas for over a year and wanted a new pair and decided to get him a pair as well. When they arrived, he took his first few steps and said, "Oh." I asked, "Oh, good or more like an uh-oh" and he said "Good. I think? They're so...springy." He wore them to his first PT session and later that day he said, "I don't know what it is about those shoes, but my hip muscles don't hurt at all." The next day he did a 2 mile walk around our neighborhood and later that day he said the same thing. These shoes have been a lifesaver for him--literally. He not only continues to do his PT diligently, but because there is no pain afterwards, he continues to be more active, getting back to his old self. We cannot say enough good things about them!

Looks great , fits great and feels great. Really the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn.

I have had these about 3 weeks so far and absolutely love them. Very comfortable, they seem to be very well built. As simple as it is, having the heel tab with that little outward arc is genius, makes putting them on easier and not pushing down on the heal cup. So far, definitely worth the price. The shoe runs true to size in length, I ordered 2E (wide) which is my normal in other brands and it's still a tiny bit snug. Will order x-wide for my next pair.

Shoes always fit like a glove. I run in them. I have like 8 pairs sitting in my home that I have used for running. I use them all for walking, since I "retired" them from running. A great product, well made and suits my needs, without being outlandishly expensive.

The Arahi 6 are very comfortable and so far so good for durability. This is my second pair, so I will rotate the two pairs that I have and hopefully make them last that much longer. I'm a personal trainer, so having something comfortable and durable is essential for my job. If you normally wear a D width the regular width may be too narrow. I got the wide width and they are fine. I also got a 1/2 size larger than what they recommended. My first pair of HOKA were the Solimar. I thought I got the wide width but they still cramped my feet and I was very disappointed in their durability, as the treads just came apart with a very short period of time.

I'm 67, and have been using running shoes over the last 45 years. These are the best shoes I've ever worn for comfort, support, and durability. They're equally good for both walking and running!

I was a little concerned that the shoe was too narrow, but it's now just snug and comfortable after a few wearings. They are helping me cope with my plantar fasciitis as well.
