Customer Reviews Hoka Mach 5

Great!

Everyday runs are great in the Mach 5. Responsive and very comfortable.

Super comfy

They are amazing, these are my first running Shoes and I love them!!

I've been buying Hokas for 5 years now. The Mach 5 are (so far) the most versatile. I have trouble with Plantar's fasciitis sometimes when training for races (halfs, 10k) but not with these babies! They have perfect balance of being cushiony but yet remaining speedy, lightweight, and responsive. The only negative I can think of is that they wear a bit easily. The 5s really only lasted me about one training season of 4 months before I needed another pair due to wear near the inner heal. That's about 200 miles which is a bit under what I'd like to get out of a shoe before having to replace. They're so comfortable though that I sort of don't care and would gladly get a third pair!

I put in atleast 20miles a week and my knees are great due to the cushion as on impact

My third pair and best so far. Very balanced. Lightweight. Recommended.

New runner. Love my new shoes. Super comfortable and light. Tried a few shoes from other companies but kept coming back to this one. Love the way it feels when I run. Makes me excited to run. Looks nice too!

Sper comfortable even when you run long distances

Did a lot of research before buying my next pair of running shoes - I am so happy I went with these. They are firm enough while having that nice cushion/bounce to them. It's like running on a cloud in the best way possible. True to size.

These shoes are light and provide good support for my feet.

Very nice shoes, well made and comfortable. Size is spot on.

Sneakers look and feels great. Soft shoe and comfortable to walk in.

I have issues with arch support and the front area of my toes. When I wear my shoes it honestly feels like I'm walking on air. It's smooth and very comfortable

Walking, Running, Everyday Wear

Simply the BEST!

Used this shoes for standing 8hours a day.. They are nice and comfy. One of the best shoes i have worn. Would order another shoes HOKA again. I might try orderin either the BONDI's or CLIFTON's.

Love these shoes, very comfy and pillow like yet when you pick up the pace, they are still responsive. Not only do I find them good for going for a run or jog, but I like them for trekking/hiking through the bush on bush tracks. They are very comfortable on rocky terrain. I prefer them over trail shoes as long as the terrain is not too technical or muddy because they are just so much more comfortable on your feet and even your knees. I also do an activity called Rockjumping, which is a form of very mild parkour on rocks (it is done sockless), and the sneakers are great for this absorbing the impact very well, and providing excellent grip so long as the surfaces are not wet. They are also able to mold ok to the jagged surfaces beneath your feet. Also, they are excellent on international travel trips. Recently spent 2 months in Europe, from Australia, via Singapore. Because they are so comfy, roomy and fluffy, they are excellent on long haul flights, but then when you hit the pavement and start doing your long all day city walks, hiking in nature, sightseeing, tours and your runs, they come alive. Absolutely perfect travel shoes. And as I stated above, you can wear them sockless and in this fashion, they are very comfortable and provide a better feel and control for your feel when doing technical activities. I find them true to size, but there is a little bit of space up front at the toe box however when your feet start to swell, this room comes in handy. Only issue is durability of the outsole and grip on damp/wet surfaces like pavements or rocks. One needs extra attention. I wouldn't recommend rubber all the way through as it would stiffen the shoe and inhbit its flex capabilities which is great, but maybe a bit of rubber on certain high wear areas. I much prefer the shoes to wear out quicker though and be this comfortable and flexible. It's the nature of the beast really as the materials of comfortable, lite and flexible shoes will wear out quicker
