Customer Reviews Hoka Kawana

These would make a great athleisure shoe, but not so much a running shoe. I loved the colors and the comfort, but they weren't for me. I went on a short 4 mile run and that was probably the max I could do in these before I risked and injury.

This shoe feels a bit narrower than other Hokas I have, the insert lining ends up rubbing on my arch, so I don't like it for long periods. Also the light colored material is extremely prone to dirt and staining. I cannot for the life of me keep these clean, that may be a "me" problem though.

These shoes are great. My second pair. Ordered through the website (with another pair) and they were delivered and stolen either by the driver of a clerk at the receiving desk. Either way, HOKA sided with their vendor. Their policy. I am out hundreds of dollars. Great shoes. Poor customer service.

It's a great shoe but I think I need to stick with Clifton's.

Comfortable shoe but did not last for long. Could use more cushion that last longer.

I typically buy the Bondi shoe. I wanted to try a different one this time. I buy a regular fit size 7 for women. The Kawana seems to be tighter on my foot than the Bondi. Even when I completely loosen the shoe strings, it still is very tight around the middle and toe box.

While this is a good shoe in general, I do not feel it is as comfortable as the Clifton. The material seems very thick. There is some heel movement, even though I kick the heel and tie the laces as tight as I can comfortably get them. Cushion feels great, but because the material is thick, there isn't good movement during a run.

I'll stick with my arahi's. The just treat me better!!!

I ordered too big I guess. They hurt my arches

I am a sports medicine physicians and wear my other Hokas in clinic every day . Since Dexter has bought you the quality control and sizing is off. The Bond 8 forefoot in also different and too small

These shoes are not comfortable. I have difficulty walking in them due to the heaviness of the shoe.

They ripped from one of the holes that hold the lace (left foot) after the second use, very disappointed since this is my third pair of hoka and never had a complaint, actually I love them. I think this is a serious quality control issue.

My first purchase was Kawana in black and copper. It took 3 different purchases to get a pair that fit consistently on both feet. The sizes and fit are not consistent. I ordered another color because the color I wanted was no longer available and they fit completely different than my first pair. They are too tight in the toe box and too loose in the heel. It's so frustrating that now I have to make a trip back to the HOKA store to return these and I don't even know if the store will have a pair in the color I want. I would purchase again, but definitely not online.

I wearing it everyday at work and standing for long time.

Unfortunately I Had to return, sizing runs big.

Love that color! I would love to buy, but don't have wide size.

I just have plantar fasciitis surgery and she was just not soft enough for my heel and my scar but the shoes. Great the color is great and I would recommend it for anyone that doesn't have any foot problems.

The shoe is incredibly comfortable. But one of the eyelets ripped within one week. The eyelets do not seem to have much support around them. We have a 2nd pair of shoes coming and hopefully this doesn't repeat. But based on the eyelet design, I'm not that confident it won't happen again.

They just feel really bulky and make my foot a little tired not sure if its from it being heavy in my foot , I got my exact size
