Customer Reviews Hoka Transport

I have been wearing the Gaviota 5 for just over a year. The sole started to separate at around 10 months. Now at 11.5 months, it is hurting my fee to walk in so I ordered another pair of Hoka's. I purchased the Transport hoping for a bit longer lasting shoe, expecting the same comfort etc. from them. Not the case. I ordered the same size and EE wide width. At first try, I couldn't get my foot into the Transports. Once I completely removed the laces I was able to get my feet into the shoe, but the squeezing was horrible. When I stood up on them, I could tell right away that they were nothing like the Gaviota 5's. The cushion is way firmer, almost hard by comparison, and walking was painful due to the much narrower toe box. I did double check to make sure they both say EE, and they do. There is also the issue where the point is toward the center of the toe box instead of above the big toe like the Gaviota 5's. The Gaviota 5's are like walking on air. I haven't had a pair of shoes that didn't make my feet hurt for decades (I am 59). It is so nice to actually be able to think instead of having this horrible foot pain constantly and always having to sit down to do anything. So, for me, the Transport is too narrow, the point of the toe box is in the wrong place, and the cushion is just too stiff. I will order the Gaviota 5 again and hope to find another shoe that will not hurt my feet within the next 8-10 months.

I just think that the shoes are not flexible and very narrow, even if you get a wide pair shoes.

I have several pairs of Hokas , but these are the first ones that have been so tight around my foot that it hurts. I sure hope they stretch.!

Look awesome.

Purchased as a gift and they love these.

Nice fit, very comfortable and I like the low key option colors of alabaster and white. Love the bungee lace closure synch system but I wish it had a male to female snap option when you bring the laces back through the elastic hoop and can secure the lace end tabs.

My go to shoe

Very comfortable, easy to put on,. Great tread for slippery terrain.

Casually use for walking. Stylish and comfortable.

I bought this shoes for my dad on his birthday. He really love them. He's been having issues with his feet and there was no comfortable shoes for him. Now He wears his hookas's all the time and I recently purchased a different color for him. He won't wear any other kind but the two pair I got him.

My husband swears by Hoka. He said they are the most comfortable shoe he's ever worn. He bought his first pair a couple months back and I decided to get him another pair for Christmas.

The shoes are extremely comfortable and excellent for wearing around the house, walking around the neighborhood or going to the gym.

I now see why the hospital nurses all wear Hoya's very comfortable, stable, easy to wear.

This is the 3rd pair of Hokas I've purchased fir my wife. The Bondi 8, Clifton 9, and now the Transport. She wears a 7-1/2 wide and the fit is perfect. Love the Vibram sole as it will last a long time. Very practical shoe.

Love the heel support the Hoka's provide.

I love these transport they are very comfortable and supportive. I ordered the wide version which I'm glad I did and they fit just right.

Recent shoe is for work. Very comfortable

Comfortable shoe and quality material

These are some of the best shoes I've had. I think I might buy another pair. :)

This is the second pair of Transport I purchase; I am not a runner. For walks or easy hikes, they are very comfortable
