Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 6

Not sure what happened but as a kept walking on them, they started to hurt the ball of my foot and eventually my knees.

Ordered a extra wide, they fit like a narrow. But they look like they are built well.

Very big looking and not that comfortable.

Initially thought this was a good running shoe but since the upgrade to the Ahari 6, have had recurring food issues with sneaker rubbing side of foot and causing increased pain. did not experience this with previous model

I'm on concrete all day and this shoe has corrected some problems but has created some also! My feet hurt worse now than before!

The Arabic is a great looking and well-constructed shoe. Unfortunately, the shoe, like all of the other great models, will not fit me. I wear a EE Wide in every other running shoe. The Wide Hokas are just a bit too narrow from the arch forward though the forefoot and enough to be uncomfortable to me. The X-Wides are hugely too wide. After a few years of trying, I will give up. I love the shoes otherwise but I cannot wear them. I cannot recommend them without wearing them for activities.

I wear a size E, usually a Clifton, but I thought I'd change it up this time with the Arahi. Unfortunately the fit just isn't the same, the shoe is tight in the toe box. It's not that they're too tight to wear, it's more like I can't wait to take them off at the end of every day.

I purchased these shoes because I thought it was good for standing at work for many hours. My feet hurt and my sciatic pain was worse than usual.

Used for running - cushioning was fine but cut back into my heel giving me a blister

Not as comfortable as my Addidas or Nike. These were recommended to me but I am highly disappointed especially considering the price point.

When I wear these shoes, my big toe starts to hurt. Shoe feels wide and it feels that is not true to its size

I want these to live up to the hype. Heck, they were directly recommended to me by an orthopaedic surgeon. But they are sort of narrow in the midfoot, absolutely wreck my calves to use, and I feel like I'm going to roll an ankle, which I've never done. Do they take some gettind used to or something?

It is ok but not good enough for standing or walking 3 to 4 hours nonstop it start to made my feet and legs hurt

I have worn the shoes about 6 times, and the sole is starting to come off.

These felt really stiff compared to the Arahi 5s that I already had.

I was really excited about these shoes because I just had ankle surgery and I needed as much support and cushion as I could get of a shoe. I tried this into other shoes that Hoka makes and they all gave me blisters on the interior arch of my feet. I am not flat-footed and I usually have high arch support, but for some reason Hoka shoes just don't work for me. A darn shame

I expected a lot when I bought these Hoka shoes given the popularity and ratings. I switched from New Balance to Hoka. However, the inside cushioning is uncomfortable and causing calluses which I have never had before. My usual run is 10 miles long and my feet start hurting after 5 miles due to calluses formed. I have never had this experience before with other shoes.

They are too big in the toe area. Too tight on the sides not a comfortable shoe at all. Save your money

I had to return them because the hard plastic part dug into the side of my foot. I have really wide feet and was hopeful for these but I learned they aren't the shoes for me.

Tried and tried with these shoes but the shoe box is very tight and my feet and toes blister up. I also use the Saucony tempus and do not have this problem.

Purchased an 11 2E based on what the site recommended off another brand. For purchasing a wide shoe these are extremely narrow in the arch area where most brands are actually wide. Due to this they are not comfortable at all. I tried on an extra wide Bondi at a store and they feel great but look ridiculously stupid because the toe area is extremely wide...looks like clown shoes. Some major changes need to be made for the arch area if you want to consider the wide option as wide.

After buying and enjoying a couple pairs of Arahi 5's, I bought a pair of Arahi 6's expecting to be similarly delighted. Alas, they felt less comfortable than the 5's and didn't fit me as well. I was also disappointed with the cushioning, which seemed less substantial than the 5's. I'd buy another pair of Arahi 5's in a heartbeat, but I've struck the 6 from my list. This is one instance in which the "new and improved" version is only new.

I can tell why people like these, the cushioning is impressive. Unfortunately, the arch support is incredibly stiff and feels like it's pushing a hard edge into my arch with every step. Not sure if that's how the shoes are designed, or if I just have "special" feet, but they are too uncomfortable to wear. After five miles, they were retired. Oh well.
