Customer Reviews Hoka Mach 5

These are my favorite running shoes! I was almost killed in a high-speed motor vehicle accident, on 12/24/2009. I’ve now had 15 surgeries in 12.5 years, and my feet have been operated on a total of 7 times. Basically, I’ve had a hell of a time finding any shoes that actually work for all the physical issues I have now. These not only have a spacious toe box, but their “Metarocker” sole improves my awful gate. I LOVE the colors too! Overall, they’re a win-win for me. It’s taken me 12.5 years to find shoes that work, and these are amazing! They also accommodate my insole on the right foot (my bad foot). They aren’t too tight, and just really make my feet feel comfortable all day while wearing them. I love these shoes Hoka!

Never worn the Mach style of Hoka before I bought the Mach 5. Compared to the Hoka Bondi 7, the Mach 5 feels a slight bit larger, which makes it roomier for socks. The tongue is very thin, perforated, and has 2 padded areas, one along the top and the second off to the side on each foot. The heel has a rather unique (to me) shape at the top, but does make it easy to pull on. Worn 3 times for dog walking; very comfortable and cushiony.

I have worn Hoka's for over 5 years and own probably 8-10 pairs. I am a little hesitant about buying them online but felt confident of authenticity buying them here. I have to say that the quality of these shoes were definitely not up to par. So, unsure whether these are not authentic or if the quality shoes by this manufacturer has gone downhill but, I had to return them. Sad because this is the only running shoe I like.

Best fit and most comfortable shoe I’ve ever run in! Cradles my foot so we’ll it feels like I’m gliding on air.

Let me start with the fact that I am not a runner but am looking for a comfortable and supportive sneaker (I have Plantar Fasciitis in my left). I tried three different Hoka's- Bondi 8, Clifton 9 and Mach 5. I am typically a size 6M, but in the Hoka's the 6.5M was the better fit for my foot in all three styles. The Mach 5 was the winner of the three styles. All three were comfortable right out of the box, so my decision came down to the finer points. The Bondi was a bit too roomy in the toe box, and while I felt firm support of my heel, the arch support was not there compared to the other two styles. The Clifton 9 had the cushiest feel but was wider in appearance and the white/white is a pure bright white. The Mach 5 that I chose is a softer white with copper detailing. It was lighter in both appearance and weight on the feet while still providing great comfort and support. Very happy with my choice.

I'm between an 8.5 and a 9 (because my feet are wide). These sneakers were INSANELY comfortable right out of the box. Don't feel too long or too tight. Love the style. FYI: the "white" is slightly pink. Very happy with them.

I am a size nine is all footwear except Hoka. I wear an 8 1/2 in Hoka because the nine is too big. Other than that, I love the shoes.

These shoes are awesome!! I have multiple Hoka shoes and these are my faves. They have the best arch support and a wider toes box. I have narrow heels, and an old big toe injury a lot of other shoes bother, and the Mach 5 are just what I needed. I just purchased another pair in a different color. I
