They are beautiful, but I think I bought the wrong kind...they are really soft in the heels, and I stand differently.., but they are comfortabe

I was hoping for a little more comfort. I wore them around the house for a couple of days before I wore them out. They are OK but not the most comfortable.

Very light , flexible shoe. Use them mostly for Zumba exercising. Thought the wider base would be a stumbling issue. SO far so good!!

I bought these shoes and it was instant comfort, from Run #1. I did a 20-miler for my fourth run with them, then chucked them in a cold water, front load washer with sweatshirts and t-shirts. A portion of one sole was partially scoured off by....?? A sweatshirt? There was nothing solid or sharp in the load. I'm used to washing my shoes so this surprised me. They are still serviceable but it's a bummer.

These are extremely lightweight and comfortable. So far these have been the best shoes I've owned.

Well, it's a nice shoe, but I don't like that the sole is so big in the heel area - I get this is for stability, yet I was walking out my garage door and the door literally caught on the back of the shoe because it sticks out so much. I almost pitched forward down the steps. Not to mention my feet are longer than I'd like as it is, this only makes the shoe longer and makes my foot look huge. I'll keep them but I probably won't buy them again unless they make that back piece smaller.

Super running shoe; however, I probably could have used a Narrow width. I don't usually wear narrow but this seems a bit wide.

These aren't as comfortable as the Mach 4, in my opinion. Still comfy, but not as comfy. And these ran big. My other HOKAs I always wear a 9, so I got a 9 in these, and they're slightly too big.

This is my third pair of the MACH5. I am so happy that Hoka came out with an all white pair because I wasn't the biggest fan of the all white with the gold writing but yes, I absolutely love these. I have flat feet and suffer from plantar fasciitis, so these are the only Hokas that do not trigger or worsen my planner fasciitis. I'm not a runner, but these are the only Hokas that I can comfortably run it if I were to do a couple miles or so.

I have a narrow foot and high arches, and these shoes feel very narrow. My shoes tend to stretch out as I walk, so I am hopeful.
Love the look and the cushion feel.

I haven't worn this model shoe before, but it looked like it had a lower platform and not so much foam. However, it seems to run at least one half size large. I wear size 6 1/2 in HOKAS, and they were huge. I didn't like them enough to size down so I returned them. Also, I didn't care for the way the foam sticks out in the back; maybe it's supposed to help you run faster!

The cushioning, length and base were perfect. The width was too narrow. My baby toe was rubbing. It would irritate me when running.

Second pair of Mach 5 sneakers. Very comfortable sneakers. I love the colorway. Hoka's have become a staple in my sneaker catalog.

I’m on my 3rd pair so I clearly like them, but I can’t give 5 stars overall because I feel like the bottoms wear out too quick. They need some more reinforcement or added rubber to add some longevity. Otherwise the comfort is great and they are true to size!

I actually got the Mach 5 because I love the way it looks. It is not the most cushioned Hoke. However, it feels fine. But, it is the best looking Hoka.

Love the Mach series. So so comfortable! Notes- I did think the blue on the Hoka and sole seemed a different shade of blue than the picture- was actually a dark navy. The new mesh pattern on the toe isn’t as thick as the Mach 4.

Love the shoes, I wish I got a half size smaller because they feel a little bit too big. Super nice support and comfort which is what I was looking for for 12 hour shifts.

This is a great looking shoe and felt very good initially when I laced them up but just not the right Hoka for my feet. I tried them walking and running on the treadmill and my feet went numb/tingling. I will have to stick with the Clifton series and the Challenger. I would still recommend this shoe because I suspect the fit just wasn't right for my feet and arches.

The shoe looks great. My only issue is that my ankle sits out and I guess lower than average so the seam hits when i am walking. Not issues when on stationary bike. Going to try different inserts to see if it raised my foot higher so it doesn't hit. Have not tried walking in them long distance yet because I think it will irritate the area below the ankle.

The shoe tongue is attached to the shoe under the laces. This makes the shoe too tight for my arch.

I purchased these because I needed a good athletic shoe for the gym. I have fallen arches and tend to get calluses in regular shoes that don't provide shock absorption. Having them on is like walking on air. They provide great support during my elliptical and treadmill workouts. I even put in booties and wear them around the house because the are so comfortable and provide excellent support.
