I wanted to love these shoes but they may be the most uncomfortable shoes I’ve owned. I jog/walk. They hit my ancient in an odd spot and rub. Also, my feet may be a like too thick for them.

These shoes are very stiff and not nearly as comfortable as my other Hokas

Not sure if anyone else has this problem but I wore out the heal so bad in the back of the shoe where you can touch the plastic! Might be my socks though?? Not sure but sad I spend a lot of money.

Stability and cushioning good but edges of inner sole are high and curve up rub against your foot causing blisters even with thick socks. I assume it's because of side support structure but it makes the shoes uncomfortable.

I bought a running shoe which I thought was the same style I am running in now. It wasn't the same one and was too small (in the size I always wear). I sent back for an exchange. There was a $25 + difference which they could charge to my cc. Because it didn't go through you cancelled the order. Would have been nice if you just reached out to me with a phone call to address and process the order. Now I have to reorder and wait for delivery during my training time.

I bought the Arahi 6 and was very disappointed. The first Arahi I bought fit like a glove. This new version felt like a vice. Had to return it. The blue color was great, that's about the only good thing I can say. I would also like to say that I considered the Gaviota, but the color selection for wide is very limited and bland. I like bright colors.

These shoes are incredibly comfortable which is why I keep trying them. Unfortunately, they seem to wear out quickly. In the past the bottom of the shoe was very worn after 100 miles of running. I have not tried the most recent version but the last 2 pairs I purchased wore through inside the heel within a few months just from walking in them. The hard inner part of the shoe eventually cuts through the fabric and into my foot making the shoes unwearable. Disappointing for such expensive shoes.

I like the shoes and I like Hoka. However the shoes arrived damaged. They had glue or something similar on the side and I wasn’t paying for a shoe that was already damaged. Returning was simple. I will say the shoes did not arrive in a Hoka box or even with fillers. Which leads me to believe that the shoes were returned before.
I have reordered the shoes from Hoka directly, unfortunately there is noticeable glue on the soles and the stitching is already coming undone. I was so excited to get a QUALITY pair of shoes and so far these are a massive disappointment.
For the price of the shoe, the quality control is lacking. To others it may not be that big of a deal, but I expect more for 140 bucks.

When I heard of Hoka shoes I was really hoping I would live them. I got them and I wear them everyday to my second job where I'm on my feet for anywhere from 3 to 8 hrs. I keep hoping I just need to break them in but they hurt my feet almost as bad as my sketches did with a gel insole. Idk maybe I got the wrong fit or something.
I would recommend them to a friend and I have because they're a good shoe but I haven't seen a benefit to them really.

I have a recent Achilles tendon rupture. Your shoes were recommended by my PT. They did not help! They hurt my heel. Somehow they didn't fit my foot right. I haven't gotten my money back but, it should come soon

The reason why I bought this shoe...everyone I work with bragged about how great this shoe made their feet feel after a 12 hour work day. They said the comfort was remarkable especially with all of our constant walking. So I purchased the shoe that was suggested for me Arahi 6. After wearing it for a 12 hour day my feet were hurting! They came off and were put back in the box. Would not buy again.

These shoes hurt your big toe joint ..even as a Wide shoe. Also their shape is very orthopedic looking. Not stylish. If you like shoes that make you look like you have duck feet and then also hurt...give them a try. On the plus side, they are light and cushy

I loved my hole bondi 8 shoes but I was told I have some over pronation in my foot so I thought I would try the Hoka Arahi 6 but they hurt my sides of my feet, like they are to right in the widths I don't know but I wish I would have purchased another pair of Hoka bondi 8 shoes they are my favorite

I bought these instead of the Bondi 8s that I normally get. They were a little small and not as comfortable, so I returned them and I am currently waiting for my Bondi 8s that I exchanged them for.

My back and feet were really looking forward to trying these 'miracle' shoes. Unfortunately they did not prove to be as comfortable or supportive as advertised. After giving them a weekend to 'break in', they still did not alleviate any post shift heel or back pain. My shifts are not as long as a nurse or doctor, which is why I thought 8-10 hours on a concrete floor shouldn't pose a hurdle to these shoes. Spent a chunk of money to be proven wrong.

The pair of Brooks I bought are better than these. I have a really high arch and these still let my arch fall when walking on my feet all day

I'm still a huge fan of Hoka products, but this shoe in particular was more narrow and significantly more uncomfortable for my soles than the prior models I've purchased. In particular, for me, the width in the toe box was inadequate, and I started developing a large blister on my inner heel. I swapped back to the Clifton model and was relieved to find that was still a great fit for me.

The shoes were at least one inch longer than my Under Armour and Brooks tennis shoes. It's unfortunate because I have heard so many great things about HOKA shoes. I also did not like the fabric.
