The shoes felt comfortable to wear while walking and running and definitely felt supportive. They felt smaller in width and length than the Bondi 7 5.5 Wide, which were my previous running shoes, so if I wasn't ordering online, I might have preferred to try these shoes one size up if I had the option. But overall they are still quite comfortable and I can feel the arch support.

These are the most comfortable and comfortable shoes I have ever had! I have tried so many expensive running shoes, walking shoes, nursing shoes. These are the ones! I'm on my feet all day, I suffer with plantar fasciitis and a hammer toe. I can go so much longer without foot pain in these shoes. Buying more. Maybe stocking up in case they change them.

Purchased these to replace a worn out pair of Arahi 4s, these are sooo, so much more soft and comfortable to run in! I'm mostly an interval runner on the treadmill but with these i've felt good about adding distance runs once or twice a week (outside even!) without feeling like my feet are taking a beating. fit is a bit wide on me but i just lace 'em up a little more than usual and i'm good to go. My Arahi 4's were an 8 but decided to go up half a size to 8-1/2, but i honestly feel like i should have stuck with an 8, Hokas really are true to size and that may account for the slightly loose fit

Love these shoes I bought a 12 wide unfortunately I have big feet but I needed a pair of shoes where my feet don’t rub anywhere where my feet don’t hurt at the end of the day. I previously bought Brooks ghost loved them fit pretty good with a size 12 wide you tend to settle for pretty good and foot pain at the end of the day. This fall I decided to try to find something that I can wear all day standing or walking 12-14 hours and no discomfort. I was amazed the first day I received them I went for a two hour walk and still comfy I’ve been wearing them all day for four days love love love them. Toes have plenty of room and my orthotics fit perfectly. I agree with other reviews it would be nice yo see some cute colors. They don’t make my feet look huge I think the styling look great and I’m super picky I don’t need any designs to make my feet look any larger

This Gaviota 4, Harbor Mist/Nimbus Cloud, is by far my favorite shoe. The fit is magnificent, and the gray top, with the pink, white, and orange sole are absolutely wonderful. I always have people stop and compliment me on these Tennis Shoes. It has great cushion, great support, and I wear them for both Workout, and when out and about. I would recommend them to everyone.

Love these shoes! These are my first Hokas. I need a large toe box and these fit just right. I love the look of them too. Just right!

I thought they would be just right but they are too wide for me. Need to return and try again - I'm going to try another one - Asics this time.
thank you.

Because of the hype of Hoka, I first bought Hoka Bondi 8 and wore it for 2 days in my 16 hours shift, but it got uncomfortable after couple hours of wearing it and was hurting my instep part of my feet so bad..I was very disappointed for it being not worth the money I spent in that..I returned it and purchased Gaviota 4 just to try if it was going to work! And oh boy, it worked like wonders! I wore this shoes for a week and I felt like walking on the clouds..I get physically tired in my 16 hours shift, but my feet doesn’t hurt. And I am so grateful for this purchase I made!

The only issue I had with these was the toe box area wasn't quite as wide as I was hoping for, so I ended up exchanging them for the newly released Gaviota 5's since it was stated there was improvements made to the toe box area fit. Aside from this, the stability feature was pretty good in the 4's, which was an important feature for me and my semi flat feet and painful feet aggravated by SI joint condition and neuropathy. If you need a wide width due to painful foot conditions, this model may not quite meet the wideness you're hoping for. Or of you are normally a regular width, the wide width in this model may be just fine for you.

This shoe was recommended as the most comfortable running shoe on the market. I haven't tried them all but I can definitely say its super comfortable. Its clunkier than any shoe I'd buy for aesthetics, but I got the all black ones so they go with every outfit. I actually look forward to running in them because my knees, ankles, and soles are so happy in them. I would 100% purchase again!

I work at a restaurant, on my feet for the better part of 8 hours. These shoes are super comfortable and great for my feet (I have a very low arch). I can stand with minimal fatigue to my feet! Plus, they are very stylish!

I started a retail job where I'm on my feet for hours. These shoes are the only ones I can wear all day and not have hurting feet at the end of the day. They're so cozy and comfy.
