Customer Reviews Hoka Solimar

At first I couldn't stop raving about these shoes (the comfort of plush hokas but with a slimmer profile) but after wearing them on several walks around the city and through the airport, the insert in my right shoe came lose and now rides up the back of my shoe each time I wear them. The feeling drives me nuts and I question the quality of these shoes. I've owned many Cliftons, Machs, rincons, etc. and ran so many miles in them but never had this issue with past models. I am so sad because I love these shoes but can't get past the insert moving out of place each time I wear them :/

This is the first pair of HOKA's I'll be returning. Not very comfortable compared to the Clifton.

no different than Ascics, just cost more. not cushy like i had hoped

I was excited to purchase the Solimar for walking/training after reading reviews. After a couple of days, I realized they didn't have much support so I bought orthotics hoping they would help. Unfortunately the shoe doesn't seem to have enough room for them. They just didn't work for me. Disappointing.

Not enough cushion in these shoes. I returned them and returned to the Bondi.

Doctor recommended for my flat feet and tendonitis but I am disappointed and was hoping they would be more comfortable

I didn't understand what the difference was in regards to the name of the different shoes. Everyone kept telling me how wonderful the shoes were. I gave them now and have worn the 3 times and they just feel ok.was hoping that I would feel the soles feel lumpy?

I have high arches and there was no arch support. There was less cushioning than in other Hokas. Felt flimsy overall.

I recently heard about this shoe and thought I would try them. My feet were sore after wearing them for two hours in my house. I'm sure they work for a lot of people. I'm just not one of those people. I have problem feet, so I will stick with what I know works. I sent them back. I will say Hoka made them easy to return!

I was rather disappointed with my recent shoe purchase. Despite diligently researching reviews regarding sizing and comfort, the shoes I received were uncomfortably large and failed to meet my expectations. In contrast to my old Nike running shoes, which I've reverted to due to this disappointment, the fit and comfort were noticeably subpar. Hoping for a better fit, I initiated an exchange for a different pair over a month ago. Regrettably, there has been no communication or updates since I sent back the original pair. The lack of information about the status of my exchange, coupled with the absence of a refund, is causing me considerable concern. I find myself increasingly anxious about the possibility of having paid for shoes that may never reach me.

This is my third time trying to find a style/model with enough cushion to power walk and I haven't had much luck. One shoes feels like it has more cushion than the other. Just an odd feel.

I own many pairs of Hoka shoes and these are the first ones that squeak.

Shoes were too narrow and just didn't fit my fit my feet well! I returned them

This is probably my 6th pair of Hokas. I usually buy the Bondi and I do play sports in them but the tread on these are fading fast on the upper fourth of the bottom.

Too big my heal slipped out.

Was sent wrong color but shoes are ok I where them to the gym

I bought a wide, but feels pretty narrow

I was very excited about these shoes but unfortunately they hurt my feet. I thought it was because I needed to break them in but I have done over 50 miles on them and they still hurt. They squeeze my feet and make them feel like they are falling asleep (tingling feeling). It is not the socks either because I use proper running socks. I have used several Hoka shoes before and this is the first time I have been disappointed.

I was excited to get these shoes as I've heard good things. Unfortunately, these shoes do not have good support and my feet hurt after wearing them even a short time. I have only worn them twice and won't be able to wear them again, definite waste of money, wish I could return them.

This shoe would be awesome in the gym if the fabric wouldn't stretch too much as your foot moves. It is comfortable and true to size. But I felt my foot sliding to the side because the fabric stretches and gives too much as your foot moves. I do not feel secure in this shoe for cross fit or HIIT exercises or any exercise that requires me to be very active. This shoe would be a fine to wear for gym exercises where your foot is in a strap or low intensity walking on a treadmill.

I want to like these shoes, I bought my normal size and after a couple months of wearing them, they are too large. They hurt my feet.

I returned the shoes because the fit was not comfortable. My foot kept sliding at the back.

Ok shoes, too narrow for me and feet hurt after a few hours.
