Customer Reviews Hoka Challenger 7

I have neuropathy and the extra cushion helps eliminate the pain when I walk

I haven't done anything strenuous in them, but they've been amazing for all-day, on-your-feet kinds of days (i.e., a day at the local theme park). These are my first Hokas, and they definitely live up to the hype.

I put them o went for a hike and the were perfect. Needed no break in. Fit was great. Don't know what to say put I loved them.

I had an older version and I did a lot of walking, up and down hill. Feet never got sore or tired, felt like I was walking on carpet.

i use for everything yard work to biking. im usually a minimalist shoe dood but i met an older guy with bad knees wearing hokas and noticed the sole was comfy looking... i didnt like the heel on the chalenger atr 7(they sent me a wide) and still was to small, i removed the insole and vuala!

I have a bad back and the shoe gives me the support I need to take away all the pounding.

I started wearing HOKA shoes when I was having problems with my feet and legs. I've recently gone to a 4E width but bought these in wide and they feel fine. Love the look and how comfortable they are. This is my 2nd pair.

I'm a traveling salesman who likes to run, walk. I prefer trail running but find myself often on blacktop and pavement. This shoe provides traction for both. It's very lightweight so it's easy to pack. It would be a perfect shoe if the wide size came in Gore- Tex as well!

The lighter running shoes I ever seen! Ultra-comfortable and stable. very efficient sole on absorbing the chocks..

I bought these for my son for Christmas. He is a UPS driver and on his feet most of the day. He loves the way these shoes fit and the comfort they afford. I am sure he would buy a pair himself when these finally wear out.

SIL went running 5 mi in it day he received them. Loved them.

I got these for my husband who never gets himself nice shoes, he will spend money on myself or our boys but not his self I thought he was going to faint when he opened up his Christmas gift. He has wore his shoes every day since Christmas. I hope he has seen the importance of good shoes!!!

Feel light, will def become a tool in my health journey!!

I was looking for something with a bit tougher sole than a Bondi, and some extra traction for walking and running around in Durango and it local trails. 30 day on them the soles are solid. The shoe has good cushion for bigger runners ( my dog love long walks/hikes with running section ) So far traction has been good when there is fresh snow on the ground and on the local trails . They are slippery on heavily packed snow/ice ( but I throw on metal spike when it like this or move Vibram sole shoe on these days)

If they continue with my size will buy this shoe again

comfy

In my closet right now I have a total of 10 pair of shoes all Hoka brand. These are the most comfortable ones I own I wear these anytime I am going walking.

I use this shoe as I have others at my place of work. I am constantly on my feet and Hokas are the only shoes that keep my feet comfortable all day. I think the bondi 8 is just a slightly more comfortable shoe.

This was a gift for my son to replace the same shoes he bought a long time ago. He is well pleased.

These shoes are super comfortable with incredible cushioning, light weight and amazing traction for trail running and hiking.

The challenger is the most comfortable and capable trail shoe available in today's market. I bought this pair for my stepson who is a Green Barret in the Army and he loves them. Unfortunately I didn't have the same luck with the Hoparas I bought a few months ago. The heel strap ripped right at the pull tab on each shoe. When I called customer service they told me there was nothing they could do, very dissapointing since I've purchased several pairs of Hoka shoes.
