Customer Reviews Hoka Solimar

Im not pleased. They're killing my feet. Im going to return them on Saturday.

I have wide foot and I can see my toes bulging out and makes shoe look ugly even with wide while walking. Still looking for comfortable walking shoe.

I was pretty excited on this shoe because I've enjoyed my Mach 6 (size 10, D) and really liked the design. I intended to use it more as a walking shoe rather than a running shoe. But the shape of this shoe is too narrow. I've walked with it for more than 50 miles now (doing 5 mile walks) hoping it would sort of expand a bit but the feeling is still the same. I should have bought the Solimar 2 since it seems the width of that shoe is a little wider. But this was on sale so bit the bullet. I regret it now.

squeak - squeak - squeak - all the time!!

Compared to other brands, this pair was too narrow and they did not have a wide option. Exchanged it to the next size but it was still too tight. Now they have out of stock and might have discontinued the model in a span of 1-2 months.

I wear these shoes to work, I walk about 7-10 miles a shift, the shoes have completely fallen apart and aren't worth the premium price tag on them.

A month street purchasing it started making a clicking noise in one of the shoes with every step.

less than six months old and broke out the fabric and wouldn't honor an exchange or discount

I bought this brand after thinking I would make a switch from On shoes. Very shortly after wearing the shoes I had an issue that should've been covered under warranty with the sole of the shoe and they denied the warranty claim very flippantly. After spending this kind of money on a shoe, you would think they would've at least looked into it a little more and swap them out if needed. Do not recommend.

These shoes are terrible. I have a blister on my instep after 3 days. Narrow with no support if you walk too long or stand your knees will start to ache. They ought to take these off the market. HOKA IS A JOKA

Need to return

Way to narrow an ended up hurting my feet an causing blisters.

I bought these for my husband for his birthday. He's only used these for 3 months and the rubber on the outer sole is already coming off. It's really unfortunate because he has loved Hokas for some time and I was even planning on getting my first pair soon since we both like to run but I'm not sure about that anymore. He is not a crazy long distance runner either, just an everyday runner like the shoe is marketed. I wish I could attach photos to my review.

unhappy with quality and value, very cheep feeling shoe

I LOVE HOKA and own several pairs, My navy SOLIMARS turned out to be BEYOND disappointing...when I tried them on, they felt fine but as I have worn them, I have noticed that the toe box is unusually small, the shoe is not as lush on the feet as my other pairs (you don't feel like you're walking on air...) and WORST of all, the sneakers make a squishing sound when I walk! The shoe literally emits a noise!!! Note: I can't wear them to work anymore for this reason!I wish I could return them...wary of buying HOKA's online now.

Much too narrow compared to other hokas I've bought, can not wear, if you must buy go at least a half size up

Narrow toe box, not true to size. Suggest ordering one size larger than usual.

Bought these for daily wear on the weekends. For the price I expected them to be more comfortable and higher quality. After only wearing them on weekends after 3 months the bottoms of the shoes were bubbling and peeling apart. Not a good first impression from hoka. I will not be buying from this brand ever again. The cost of these shoes did not equal quality at all! Waste of money

The shoes provide limited support for running. The insoles are extremely lose and do not properly support your foot.

I usually love my hokas, but these were extremely short lived. After a couple wears I was getting imprints in the insole which was the beginning of the degradation of the insole and loss of shape inside the shoe. The outside started to tear within a month. Overall, seems cheaply made and not long lasting relative to the hook standard I expect.
