Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 6

I love all of the Hokas that I have bought except this pair. The arch is weird and I'm not sure what is going on with the toe box but my toes hurt wearing this style. I have spent a LOT for 8 pair of Hokas in the last 2 months for my daughter and I, this pair disappoints.

I love my gaivota model. But the arahi was an immediate let down; pain on the back of my heels started with the first run and I'm still recovering. Could it be because of the slip on design?. I'm happily back on my gaivota which is a great product.

I got my pair in June and fell in love with them! Though a bit clunky for my liking, there were very comfortable and were great while they lasted. Unfortunately, by November (less than 6 months of use) they had already gotten holes. For the price, I thought they would have lasted me at least a year since I only use them for walking. Not worth the investment.

I just got my shoes. The color for the coral in the photo online looked like a light pinky orange the shoes in person look like a dark orange

Would that I had my order but it never arrived.

I mostly run on asphalt and these shoes do not have treads conducive for these conditions. I slipped even on dry roads and running on damp roads from rain or even morning dew was almost impossible. These shoes are better suited for trails, rough sidewalks, or tracks with grippy surfaces.

The toe box feels tight. I have tried a 6.0 and it was too big which is my usual size. Have the 5.5 and it isn't comfortable. I have past my 30 days to return

I wanted to love these sneakers. Unfortunately, my feet didn't feel any better in these sneakers. I even took the questionnaire to hopefully get the best Hoka for my feet. I am on my feet an average of 10 hours a day walking and standing. I couldn't wait to take these sneaker off my feet at the end of my day. I thought I just needed to break them in, so I wore them every day for 2+ weeks. It was no better so I sent them back and I'm back searching for comfort for my feet.

My first time buying Hoka's and although it feels cushiony and is supposed to be a stability shoe, the insole was poorly made and kept scratching my foot. Very uncomfortable. I had to buy $50 insoles to replace the already expensive shoe. Once I had the new insoles the shoes were great. But rating it a 2 because for the price it should come ready to go, not needing extra modifications.

I purchased these in the same size I have gotten my other Hokas in. These felt more narrow and tighter all around. I have started the exchange process to get the same size only in wide to see if those will work. Hoka has been my favorite shoe lately and I haven't had any issue with the size until this one.

I need to return , they run smaller then the Clifton 7 I'm currently wearing.

I've worn the Arahi in size 8.5 Wide for some time and loved it. Both the Arahi 4 and Arahi 5 fit my foot perfectly and are incredibly comfortable. I just ordered a pair of the Arahi 6 in 8.5 Wide and the front of the shoe is narrower than in the two previous models. The rest of the shoe still fits perfectly. The Customer Service Rep said that the new design for the Arahi 6 results in less room in the front width, which if accurate, is very disappointing to learn. I've returned the Arahi 6 in 8.5 Wide in exchange for another pair of the same shoe in the faint hope that it might be just a manufacturing inconsistency. But I'm not terribly optimistic.

In regards to ordering and delivery all went well, no complaints. I used the sizing guide online, yet the ones I chose are too narrow.

The right foot is uncomfortable but the left is ok. My legs hurt for many hours after wearing them. Never had any pain with the ones I bought years ago.

I purchased these shoes because of the recommendations on your site for nurses. Nothing special about this shoe. Would not purchase again or recommend to my fellow colleagues.

I thought the shoe was well made and looked nice. It was just too stiff for me and hurt my right foot. I returned them and will go back to the Mach 5 which I previously loved before Hoka changed.(why?) Maybe this time???

I have been experiencing neuropathy in my feet since wearing. Hoping to figure out why this is happening. It may be unrelated to my Hoka's. Seeing podiatrist in a few weeks.

I loved the Arahi 5s. They were amongst my favorite running shoes ever. I've tried loving the 6s but the heel is too narrow or has a ridge that's too high on the inside of the heel. I've put over 100 miles running/walking on these and end up with a blister on the inside, bottom of my heel if I go more than a couple miles. I'm so disappointed. Bring back the shape of the 5s!

For how much it cost you would expect a product to last longer than a few months. There's a warranty but it's void on regular wear and tear. Since I used said shoes as shoes seems moot to even try. I've had ASICS that lasted longer then these. I got the bellweather ones. My mother and sister raved about this brand so I bought a pair for my son and myself. I find myself extremely disappointed. They weren't very comfortable at first either, had a few occasions were all the bones on the top of my foot would pop rather painfully just walking.

Good toe/forefoot room. Not much cushion. Too much posting in the rear foot which throws of my gait/running. I have a lot of bilateral foot pain when I run in them which I rarely had before with my old running shoes.

At first, the shoes weren't that great until you start to break them in. Nowby the end of the day, they are killing me. They constantly squeak when I walk. I honestly don't think I would recommend them to anyone unfortunately. I was hoping for good quality after getting poor quality from on cloud shows.
