Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 4

I wore these shoes last year just fine. This year's model is narrowed and is giving me a blister

Before buying these I called and explained to them that I have a wide foot at the toe area, I wear a full length orthotic and I tend to wear out shoes/sneakers from the outside of the heel first. It was suggested that these would be perfect. When I got them they seem nice until I tried to put them on and walk in them. My small toe was pushing out the side of the sneaker even though they are a wide and walking made it worse.

I have had them for 6 weeks and they have caused a large callus in between my toes. It gets so bad that I can't walk in them or even wear them around the house.

I have purchased about 10 pairs of Arahi's and always been happy. I decided to spend more money and buy the gaviota's. These new shoes have already had part of the soles chip off. I had to replace the laces as well because they were cheap and kept coming untied

I walk and Run. This shoe is advertised as plush but it's not. They must be using the same foam as the new Bondi 8 which is also no longer Plush. I can't run in either shoe so I found a retailer with bondi 7's and bought 4 pair. Hoka has ruined these shoes with the new foam in order to save on weight. It's a shame.

Returned two pair Ordered wide width Stitching on right foot across arch wasn't right

bought the 2EE size, and the box is not wide enough. Brooks have worked may better for me. otherwise, shoes seem fine.

Nice looking but they hurt my feet

The ad said redesigned. More support. I bought the bondi few months back they were decent. These I bought for the gym never had a hoka sneaker before. Not supportive at all. There the same as Other sneakers that I've gotten at 25% of the cost.

firm, unyielding support, smaller than their stated size, and anything but plushuseful perhaps for gardening and walking around the houseI run half marathons and wouldn't even run a 5k in these if my life depended on them If you want plush that you can run in, try Bondi 7

I have ask them to send another pair !!! They are a great company

There is something wrong with the stitching on the inside of the left shoe. It cuts into the inside of my foot. Had to stop wearing them at least until the wound heals and I might try again. Maybe I will put some duct tape over it

The shoes were too narrow so I called and was told to start an exchange. I sent the shoes back and they were received on the 25th. I was told to wait 5-10 business days for a response. I have called three times and have been told different info each time. The lady I talked to today said to wait another 2-5 days to hear something. So I ordered a month ago and now will have to wait another 2-5 days to process my exchange and then another week to get the shoes. To me that is unacceptable when you pay the price that these shoes are.

Put the shoe on for the first time and the pull on the rear of the shoe broke off.

Shoe was not stable.

It ripped at the bottom within the first week

It was advertised as plush but it's not plush. I don't like them.

I love Hokka's but not these. They were uncomfortable from the jump. I thought they might break in but they gave my feet blisters and i dont think the padding in the heal is what i am accustomed to with Hoka

Cushion is not what i espect

The color is super kool and style! but it's just not giving me the comfort that all my other Hokas have given me over the years for wearing them!

By taking a simple ruler to the shoe, it's easy to see that the wide sizes in the Gaviotas are getting more narrow with each generation. They're useless to me now.

Bad fir

I did not like the way it fit, not as comfortable as the pre HOKAs that I have owned, I purchased 2 pair returned them within 20 days 7 weeks again and have not been reimbursed

Just got two pair told people to get some and they did. Now the ones bought are coming apart both pair
