The shoes are not as comfortable as I would like . I stand over 10 hours at work and the shoes don't stop feet pain, I may have gotten the wrong kind but I will say they are not as painful as other shoes I used to wear.

Something was wrong with the left shoe and after walking 5 miles my arch ached and I had pain through my leg. I had to return these shoes. Not sure if it was a defect in the left shoe or just a bad fit. The right shoe was perfect and comfy.

I am a walker. Hard and natural surfaces. The fist pair of Hoka I got were stellar. The replacement pair, same in every way, was disappointing and unsatisfactory. I felt the footbed was tipped to a cant. I need a level footbed. I'm sorry to say the third pair were no good for me. Returning and will try again but for some reason it seems the quality has slipped from the quality of my first pair.

I ordered these and had to exchange because they ran big. I then got a half size smaller. One of the shoes seems to fit larger than the other. My feet are the same size. I love the look/colors. I'm mostly likely keeping just for errands but sad they don't work for fitness.

I wanted so badly to love these! They run a little big, I was going to exchange for a half size down but the more I wore them the more my feet actually hurt. I have had two bunion surgeries so unfortunately finding shoes that work for my feet is very tricky. I thought extra cushion would be nice but because of how tricky my feet are, it's like my feet had to move differently with some muscles overcompensating. I know these are probably great for most people but unfortunately it just wasn't the best shoe for me!

I don't have generally narrow feet, however this shoe seemed very narrow to me. The colors and the look were on point though! I ended up exchanging for the Bondi wide, however that shoe was to wide for me. The feel of this shoe seemed like it would be very comfortable and seemed well made. I wish it would have worked out more so due to the price.

I've had these shoes for over 8 months and I still get horrible blisters on the arches of my feet after running in these shoes. They are good for everyday wear/ walking but EVERY TIME I run I get massive blisters. Unfortunately just switched to new balance running shoes because of this.

I got Hokas on the recommendation of my podiatrist. I was looking for a pair of athletic shoes I could wear for walking (mostly) as well as cardio machines (step, elliptical) at the gym. While these look super-cute, there's not much to them in terms of support or structure. I've set them aside to wear when I want to look cute and be comfortable, but not do much walking.

I am not happy with this one compared to one that I bought the 1st one with the same style. Lack of something, maybe a cushion. It's not comfortable. I'm planning to exchange it.

I had ordered 9.5 B which was too small. Then got 10 B which was too large (long.) Probably 9.5 wide would have been perfect. Wonder why they (Hoka?) didn’t have it in wide. Anyway, I love Zappos either way.

Ryka but the best ones of those I ever had were called Rockers, wich they don’t make anymore. ?

My usual size is 9.5 wide -- but with other brands when a wide width is not an option, (such as Altra or Topo), with some styles I've been able to comfortably wear a 10 medium. The Hoka Kawana I tried in size 10 medium was much too narrow. I really did like the Hoka Kawana heel design and style --- but sadly I had to return the shoe due to it being much too narrow -- (thank you Zappos for being able to return it.)

Didn't fit my arch well. I have tried a few different styles and some fit well, some not!! I usually order x2 to try and make sure I get perfect fit on new styles!!

I always try the newest styles, but this one just didn't hit my arch right! Very important for a walking shoe.

Normally I wear a 9.5 wide, but since there were no wide shoes in this style, I purchased a 10 medium. Most generally going up a half size will work, if there are not wide shoes available. In this instance, that plan did not work. The shoe was much too narrow in the arch/foot area to be comfortable at all. Thank you Zappos for the ability to easily make a return. I now have a different style on order, where a 9.5 wide just showed up as being available -- fingers crossed it will work out.

I love Hokas and like that you do not really need to break them in. However, I've only had my new pair for a couple of weeks and they are falling apart.
