Customer Reviews Hoka Kaha 2 GORE-TEX®

I use this product for work, I'm on my feet all day and it's the most comfortable shoes I've worn.

Work boot

Great for walking the dog on any terrain. Great traction. Super comfortable.

With very little to frown upon, this Hoka boot is an AMAZING boot. First of all, I'm a 6' and 280 LBS. of long bearded, big bellied, fresh air breathing, goofy hiker and these boots treat my ankles and knees like they deserve. Boy oh boy did I need these, from their form that naturally corrects your gate into a smooth rolling motion to the shock resistant and fatigue reducing sole and midsole, these boots made me gain an extra 3 hours of hiking on average. I know, why use time? Well for big folks like myself, we're always worried of knee, joint, back fatigue after strenuous activity. These boots made me feel like my joints got a bath in WD40 and Redbull energy. One of my favorite features is the easy-on slip on shape it has. (which not many people mentioned here). When untied to the lace hooks the boot is open and wed enough to easily step into them without the boots getting squished or malformed. What is also great is that when the laces are in their hooks, they don't come untied. I took these boots for a good 25 mile hike across mud, dirt, loose rocks, wet rocks, and paved paths which all felt the same under my feet. I was definitely being held in place and not once did I feel like I was going to loose my footing. The only think I would improve would be the tongue being formed slightly differently as it is somewhat cumbersome when tied up.

I have to say these are the most comfortable boots I've ever bought. I work in Law Enforcement and am on my feet most of the day. I have not found a more comfortable boot as of yet. I would highly recommend this boot for anyone on their feet 10-12 hours a day. Very stylish yet comfortable.

My husband wears tactical boots for 12 hours a day and started having shooting pains up his legs. A coworker suggested this brand and he couldn't be happier! They're worth the money. He bought sneakers today and now has started telling his coworkers.

I have a very bad lower back and plantar fasciitis in both feet. I have tried numerous different types of shoes. I put this shoe on and have had leg pain disappear. I will wear this shoe from now on. Thank you HOKA!! changed my life.

The Kaha 2 boots I use for work. I am on my feet a lot and need to run sometimes and these are the most comfortable hiking boots I've ever had! I started out wearing the Hoka Bondi running shoes, which I love! And I'll never go to another brand!

I purchased the Kaha 2 GTX for work. I work in agricultural research and am on my feet all day in various weather and soil conditions. I have been wearing Keens for years but was looking for a change. I transitioned to Hoka just prior to the 2023 planting season. So far the Kaha's have been fantastic! They are holding up to the daily wear and abuse. They are comfortable and lightweight. I will more than likely purchase another pair for next year. I usually only get 9-12 months out of my work shoes. I've tried all kinds of work boots and hiking shoes over the years and feel like Hoka Kaha GTX will meet the test. I just wish that Hoka made a mud or chore boot for the times I need rubber boots. I would appreciate the comfort!

Working in the delivery business especially on raining days can be very tough. The one thing I strive to do is keep my feet dry. With the use of gortex on the Kaha is an amazing combination. The plush construction for me is the way to go feel just like my Bondi SRs which are my daily work shoe. I love these boots so far! Heck I forgot I had them on. I have walked about 25 miles in them so far with no issues in wear and tear. Gortex seems to be holding up through days of walking in consistent down pour that has only come up to about the outer sole height on the boot. The real test now will be longevity. Only suggestion is that the outsole was slip resistant but hey I'm not complaining these boots really do it for me. Thanks for the vibram sole great touch! Pleas Hoka don't discontinue the boot or the color!!

I use these KAHA 2 GTX for work I've got over 3000 hours wearing these boots and love them most comfortable boot I've ever put on my feet great fit great traction

Just got back from hiking in Colorado. Shoes were so comfortable I forgot they were on. Light, great grip on wet rocks. Kept my ankles from rolling (I am an old man who abused his body when he was young playing football, track and field and racing motorcycles). The were plush, but not too soft. Very happy with my purchase and they look great too!!!

The boots give constant support and comfort.

I'm a School Resource Officer in a local high school. I walk a minimum of about 12,000 steps a day in and around the high school. While I'm not doing any "hiking", these shoes exceeded my expectations in terms of comfort and durability. Hoka, I think you need to look to market these toward law enforcement and military personnel. Please continue to offer this all black color way, and maybe add an all coyote/tan. Excellent boots!

wish you would make in an E width

The color on the web site was slightly different than the actual product so I exchanged it with another color right after I received it.

I use my boots to perform my duties as a security officer. I walk over many different kinds of terrain, and these are the most comfortable boots I've ever owned.

I am in the ice business. These shoes are ridiculously good! Most comfortable shoe that has ever been on my feet! My feet are flat and I stay on them all day. I hate to take them off at night. I have told every person that I work with about these shoes! Spend the money! Stable, comfortable and durable! Bout to purchase a 2nd pair!

Very comfortable boots. I walk all day in them and they are very comfortable

I bought these the same day I bought the alacapa breeze and these are a lot more sturdy against wear.

Excellent boots, extremely comfy. So far appear to keep water out and are breathable. One thing I wish Hoka would do is make these more appealing for law enforcement officers with regards the appearance. So many of my colleagues would invest in Hoka if they would make a more tactical looking boot. Could be a huge market for them.

I had to return these as I ordered them to see whether the 12.5 would fit better than a 13. Not so, Hoka has sized these shoes exactly to fit. The 13's are a perfect for me with the correct sock.

I use these as work boots!! They are holding up great!! Wish they were made in a wide.

Super shoes

I bought these as an alternative to duty boots. Walking and standing and running, my feet have never felt better. Would recommend these to everyone!
