Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 6

Returned. Shoe was nice but not wide enough . I'm a EE. Shoe was to narrow.

Wasn't really sure I needed a "stability" shoe but thought I would give these a try. They are incredibly comfortable. I use them for walking and everyday wear with custom orthotics. I cheat a little bit and slip a silicone cushion under the forefoot since my orthotics aren't as thick as the provided insole. They feel just as good as my Bondi 7s but with less bulk.

I received my Arahi 6 shoes about 3 days after ordering. At first they fit tight, but after a few hours they loosened up. The shoes provide significant support for my feet, ankles, and knees that I have not experienced through years of wearing multiple models of Nike shoes. Overall I am very happy with my new shoes, but I do have one small criticism. Within a week of receiving the shoes the aglet broke off one of the shoelaces. I contacted customer support to get a replacement shoelace, as I wanted one that would match style and color exactly. I was told, unfortunately, that there is no inventory of replacement laces, and I would need to return the entire pair of shoes for a replacement. I agree, shoelaces should not ordinarily be a big deal, but for a pair of shoes in the $150 price range, well, let's just say I was disappointed.

Have purchased several pair of Clifton's until now. This shoe seems to be what I am needing at this time. My arch has weakened over the last couple of years and felt like the Clifton's were not giving the support I needed.

Comfortable fit; nice cushioning; a tad wobbly in the mid section near arch.

comfortable shoe, fit right, wish I had tried on the different styles to see if one of the others worked better in arch

Very tight around he heel and in-step. very uncomfortable and hard to put on.

I have problems with my ankles and also I have plantar fasciitis. A friend recommended this brand. I loved the questionnaire while ordering that found me the best stability for my situation. The shoes look great, also. Good colors. We do a lot of trail walking and these shows have been great. (Note: flat dirt trails, not rock climbing trails). They may have a rock climbing shoe but my review is for trail walking without rocks.

not at all comfortable as you stated it would be i should not have taken your website advice

I have fallen arches thanks to some crazy pregnancy hormones. Due to that my feet hurt all day everyday. I generally wear Birkenstocks to get relief, but these Hokas blow my Birks out of the water on comfort! I will be buying more.

This was my fourth pair though I had to return one the four three of them were awesome. This company definitely has a grip on how to make a great shoe. If you don't own a pair you don't know what your missing.

Amazing shoe. Unique combination of cushioning and stability. I normally have to sacrifice one for the other. Rare to get both.

The fit is good, but it was a little painful on my soles in the beginning. Maybe I'm too used to how soft my Speedgoat 4's feel. No regrets it'sa solid shoe.

I walk roughly 8-12 miles daily at work on hard concrete surfaces. Since switching to these shoes, my pain and soreness have been greatly reduced and as a result my physical performance and mental wellbeing has increased. I am thoroughly impressed and can't think of a single bad thing to say.

I already owned 2 pairs of the Arahi 5 and absolutely swear by them for my walking regimen. The Arahi 6 has not diminished my very positive opinion of the value of HOKA!

I was so happy with my first pair I immediately ordered the same shoe in a different color. Great for wide feet!!! So incredibly comfortable. I tried another style but it wasn't near as comfortable. I'm in my 50's and they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn.

Finally, shoes that I can wear without my feet ever hurting in them. It has been years since I have had a pair or shoes/sneakers that I can wear for hours without my feet hurting. I don't think I have taken them off since I got them and tried them on! Ok, maybe for sleeping.

Very light weight and breathable for our hot climate. Insoles not as comfortable as my previous Hokas.

I'm a moderate runner. 15k a week. The Arahi 6 has prevented knee and leg issues I've had with other shoes. I find it hard not to want to wear them for every occasion

The shoes are great for walking, working out, etc. Very comfortable, well padded.

These shoes are great for walking and they are very stable, great for those with bad backs and those who suffer from heel pain. I have edema from past cellulitis infections and dog bites so the fit was impossibly tight until I removed the insoles. The shoes were still quite cushiony and stable, but I could get them on and wear them comfortably, although they were still tight later on in the day. So I got thinner compression socks from Jobst which helps. I wish they would make them wider -- like New Balance does! And make versions with more toe box depth as well.
