Customer Reviews Hoka Challenger 7

I needed a pair of ALL black Hokas. The main body of the shoe is more of a gray than black. This is my 8th pair that I own from you, Fit2Run and Dick`s. They all look great and feel great.

I bought my first pair through a running store and was delighted. Suffering from plantar faciitis, they offered me comfort. I ordered a second pair from Hoka in black to wear on the golf course. These were exactly the same shoe in every respect, only in black. When I put them on, there were so much tighter on foot. I had to return them.

Shoes are well made and comfortable at first. The roll of the heel and angle, make my stance and stride different. But if it helps with the plantar issues, I'll be thrilled

i've been an ON sneaker person for years now. i needed a comfortable sneaker that also had some tread for my soccer refereeing assignment. i chose this shoe online as i couldn't find anywhere to tray on before purchase. received them in a timely manner and decided to wear them to my first tournament (2 days, multiple games, turf and grass). unfortunately after the 2nd game my feet started to ache. never happened with my ONs so i have to say i would not recommend these for long distances. i wore them the first day as i didn't bring an alternative thinking they would be fine but....now i can't send back.

Not as comfortable as my Kawanas

I am sure it is a great shoe but the ankles were too high and made the shoe painful to wear for me.

Had for less then 6 month. About 6 miles a week and the top meshing is falling apart. Tred is still in great condition and the shoe is comfortable but durability is not great.

I ordered these to use for walking, as an addition to my usual Bondi 8 wides & Clifton 9 wides. While this model doesn't come in wide, some of the men's shoes fit me without needing the wide. But unfortunately this model doesn't run that way. Too narrow / too small, so I had to return it.

I'm leery of any company that doesn't make it easy to contact them via phone. Sneakers are great, but SMALL. Had to return twice to get bigger and bigger sizes. Not the best customer service.

WS looking for a good walking shoe

A lot of my coworkers who purchased Hokas prior to me saus they run bigger so I didn't get the extra wide. The size I purchase is a little snug.

Very comfortable but my shoes is ripped in 5 months

Great shoes. However every pair of Hokas I've had the collar lining rips very early on. Having to Duct tape expensive shoes doesn't seem right.

The shoes are comfy and seem built well. But the sizing feels a little big. I always get 10.5D and these seem a little wide for my feet.

Insoles are thin ad paper. No cushion. No arch support.

With prolonged static cardio exercises, causes some numbess and tingling in my feet due to being tight

I loved these shoes for about a week before returning them after the collar began rubbing my right ankle bone. Never had this problem before. Now I'm planning on using the return credit to get a pair of Hoka's with a lower collar and am hoping the Transport or Solimar will do. Any thoughts about if these others shoes will work, or if I should consider other Hoka's? I'm not a runner, but want an everyday shoe that is good for the city and walking trails.
