Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 6

While nice cushion, Uncomfortable in-step and heel cup.

Super cute and comfy. Felt great until about mile 2 when the blister on the inside of my heels developed.

I wish toe area was wider

The shoes inner arch collapses; I feel flat footed. I could not train my feet to this deficiency. I will return for an exchange.

I'm on my feet for 10 hrs and these shoes are disappointing!! I had a pair of Hokas before and loved them, but these are not good!!

Day 4 trying to break in, wearing inside a few hrs w/med thickness socks. Length fine, but toe box too narrow, & presses down on top & lateral side of foot even when seated. Returning. I do like the look, lightweight & stable feeling. Back to heavy Keens though.

It's very pretty model and comfortable, but I have only used it twice and I got blisters. The 1st time gave me a blister on the side of my heel on the inside of my right foot. The second time I wore them, I got the same type of blister in the same location, but on my left foot. I wore different socks in both occasions, the second time thicker socks, to see if that would solve the problem, but it didn't. I wasn't doing strenuous exercises, both times I was walking. I am changing these for the wider fit to see if this will help. I am not counting out Hoka yet, like I said visually they are really pretty, they are very comfortable, my feet never felt tired, but I'm hoping the blisters will cease to happen with a wider shoe.

I'm a 64 y/o fast walker daily. This was my 1st try at the Hoka brand. I purchased the Arahi 6 and the Bondi 8. The Arahi did not work for me. It's definitely a stable sneaker but it messed up my gait and I could not attain a heel- toe flex of my feet.

I wanted to like this shoe so badly. I don't think Hoka does a very good job at the color schemes of their shoes. So when I saw the Arahi 6 in the color Sunlit Ocean/Lilac Mist, I had to get them. They were so pretty. When they arrived I put them on and about 10-15 minutes later, my heel started hurting. I can't explain it but it wasn't comfortable and my feet were crying for flip flops. I ended up returning them. I was so so sad. I wish they had worked out for me.

I am old and was looking for comfort,

I have had these for almost 3 weeks and they still hurt my feet.

I went to running store and got fitted for the shoes . First couple weeks felt great but lately I've had hip pain and the only thing I've changed is my shoes. Bummed as I am not able to return to the local running store per their policy. I won't repurchase.

There was no cushioning or plush to this shoe. They telt more worn out out of the box than the 2-year-old Gaviotas I was replacing. I am returning these for a new pair of the men's Gaviotas. They also felt a little small for a size 12 as my right toes were hitting the front on my strike.

These shoes left me with blisters

The first day I used them I came home with sore feet. After using it several times I got used to them. They are not very durable, they came off the sole, they used a very cheap material. I do not recommend this model, the previous model lasted a little longer.

I walked in house first and were not comfortable. Then short walk on sidewalk. Then long walk and helping move up three flights of stairs. On the long wears I could not wait to take the shoes off. They never rubbed, so i think width was true to size. I'm use to expensive shoes being comfotrable right out of the box. These never were so I returned them. Too bad as my daughter raves about hers.

My toes are literally hurting so badly. I want to live these. I have worn them 3 times now and each time my toes feel like they are going to bleed. I have the Bondi SR in an 8.5 and they fit perfectly which is why I thought these would fit true to size as well. I am sending them back to try a 9.

Me feet hurt at the end of the day wearing them

With bad knees, I took a chance on the stability but with the lack of cushion it just wasn't made for me. The upper shoe feet my vary narrow feet vary well, the breathability was also great. Really wanted this shoe to work for me.

I bought these Because I have foot pain and they didn't help. Probably good for people with healthy feet, just not for me.

They are super cute but they are beyond narrow and hurt the inside of my arch. I don't have wide feet but I don't have super narrow feet either. They honestly really hurt my feet. I am disappointed in my first pair of HOKAs
