It prevents me from pronating when I am power walking. Initially they were tight in width even though I bought wide. They have stretched and now are very comfortable. I have one foot wider than the other and both are comfy. Took a week or two of wearing.

These shoes are extremely comfortable and provide great arch support. I took the quiz on the Hoka website and based on my size of vans they suggested I size up half a size. When I received the shoes they were way too big. I returned then and got my actual size which fit me perfectly. I would definitely suggest getting you true size. I would recommend these shoes to people with flat feet or any time of foot problems.

The moment I put these shoes on they were comfortable and I did not have the need to break them in. They offer incredible support and cushioning.

So comfortable! I appreciate that they come in wide. I used them for a 5K marathon a few days after I received them and it felt like I was jogging on clouds. They are very comfortable and I definitely recommend them!

I stand and walk at my job all day and needed stability and comfort. With these shoes, that is exactly what I received. I would definitely buy these again and maybe a different style altogether. Love this brand. I wear a 7.5 and I ordered the same. Great fit.

This is my second pair. It is extremely difficult to find a wide shoe with the stability and cushion needed for the tennis court. These are perfect and last a few years.

Great cushioning...good support as well, I have very flat feet and these are very comfortable. I wear a size 10, and I used their size finder and was told to get a 10.5, which I did and they fit perfectly.!

Having developed some problems with my feet in the last year, my former Hoka style no longer fit my needs. I wanted plush and stability and with the Gaviota 4 that is exactly what I got. It's the perfect shoe for me at this point in time!

Wow! These are seriously the most comfortable shoes that I have ever bought! I was a little nervous ordering online without trying them on first because I have a very hard time finding shoes that fit and feel good on my feet. I have wide feet, not super wide, also my arches need lots of support and I love a plush comfortable insole for standing most of the day. These shoes are everything. As soon as I put them on I was in love... I know that sounds dramatic but seriously! They have max support and are max plush. They are really cute too. I ordered the coral color basically because there weren't many color options in my size but they are really a great summer color. I will be on the lookout for some more colors for fall and winter because I absolutely love these shoes! BTW I did the quiz and these were the ones recommended for my needs and it was recommended that I order half size down from my previous shoes and they do fit perfectly.

I have arthritis, plantar fasciitis and overpronate, and for me Hokas are a life-saver. They are one of the few brands that allows me to stand/walk without pain and I also have the Bondi, Anacapa hiking shoes & Ora recovery. The Gaviota are now my #1 favorite Hoka shoe style. The Gaviota seem to be similar to the Bondi, with a wide toe box that allows my toes to spread. While they do have the same "squish" as the Bondi, they also feel more supportive due to the roll bar J frame. The J frame helps alleviate my overpronation. The moment I put them on, my pain disappeared & right out of the box I was able to walk on concrete for miles without pain. I do wish that Hoka were offered in neutral colors - I am not a fan of the bright neon since I have to wear Hokas with my work clothing, but I've resigned myself to looking dorky but feeling good.

I am a CNA & do around 20k steps if more, I have really bad plantar fasciitis & my feet ache an hour in usually. These shoes are game changer! My feet were a little sore getting used to them & a few heel blisters, other than that amazing!! Buying another pair!

Have a number of Hokas but this model was suggested by my Physical Therapist for its stability. Ut's a very comfortable fit, adds the stabliity that I currently need for an injury. I am so very happy with this shoe!

I have MS and severe leg pain. My MD recommended Hokas for walking on the treadmill, walking the dog and physical therapy. They feel great. I have gotten so much relief I bought 2 of my daughters a pair for their birthday. Thank you for making a high quality shoe that really provides so much happiness!
