Customer Reviews Hoka Transport

4

These Transports are exactly what I've been looking for as a low, comfortable and slip on shoe for work. The neutral colors are nice, and can be worn in an office setting.

Not too comfy for my feet

Ordered my actual size. A little tight on the toe box, it took me 3 all day wears with the thinnest socks I have to make it work. Now it fits like a glove. I use it for work and I walk 90% of the time, no pain. I love that it repels water as it could get a little messy at work sometimes. I also love the style because it's not a typical Hoka shoe bulky titanic ship look. It's just right!

These were a lil big on me so I had to return. I'm hoping the fit gets better with the Clifton's and transports. They are running narrower in both the width and heel. Go back to the 4 series please!!

They hurt at first when I was breaking them in, the area around the arch is very narrow and they should come in wide, I know a large consumer base for these have wide feet (East Asian). So not sure why these didn't come in the wide option.

Very comfortable walking shoes that fit well. Walk daily for 3-5 miles so hope they standup to continued use.

What a gorgeous and unique color! A cross of a deep misty grape, a dark mauve, a touch of brown, a touch of grey just gorgeous! This is also a great shoe. For my foot, not ideal for long distance walks over one half mi, as I do need more cushion (hello Bondi 9!), but excellent for general walking and most errands. Could even turn this into my new house shoebut I think it deserves more exposure. A great buy with the sale. I also appreciate the natural materials incorporated, the good toe box room (I was a little concerned, but it passes), and the great style! Very good looking quality shoe! Love it. If it had just a little more plush to it, for those of us who need it, it would have easily deserved 5 stars.

I was really excited to grab my second pair of Hokas during Black Friday. My first pair has taken me through anything and everything for the past 5 years and the soles are still holding up really well, they just look a bit ratty now for the nicer casual occasions. For this pair, I wish I would've been able to compare the 9 to the 9.5 as I'm right around there depending on the shoe. I decided to go with the 9.5 / regular width, basic Transport. First off the quality of the shoes feels excellent. The Oak/Alabaster color is true to pictures and looks great (reg laces included are the shoes' body color). I like that the outside is solid (vs breathable mesh)- something I didn't really catch beforehand. I think my toe hits at the appropriate length, any more and I'd worry about it being too tight. The main question I have is in the heel area. Comparing my Hokas, the old pair's heel area has more of a curve - to cup your heel and keep it in place. That's what I was expecting. However, if you notice in the pictures, the heel area on these Hokas have more of a straight up and down build so there is some movement in my heel when moving. It's slight, but I am lowkey concerned it could shimmy socks down when walking. Could it be that it's due to buying 9.5 vs 9? Unfortunately i dont know. The last thing im unsure about is the quick adjust stretchy "laces". It's difficult to get targeted support since it will basically end up equalizing pressure everywhere when tightened. The toe box remains unaffected and roomy, and tightening only partially affects the heel security. I'm debating whether to remove the stretchy lace and do the regular laces, instead, but it appears there's no way to remove the stretchy band without actually cutting it since it's one continuous piece. Ultimately I will be keeping the shoes as I think I can get past these minor issues and make it work, after all, I won't be using them for any extreme activities.

I also have the Hoka Bondi 9's and the Transports are so much more comfortable hands down. I am post surgical x2 for a fractured foot and ankle so good shoes are a must as I transition back to floor nursing. I just wish the black/black came in a wide!

I was able to walk 10,000 steps with the shoes right out of the box...no break in period required! All of my knee and hip pain is gone after wearing these amazing shoes for less than a week....coincidence? I think NOT! These are simply the best athletic shoes that I have ever worn. AMAZING!!!!

Not enough support on the top of the foot.

I purchased these shoes for a trip to Italy. Wanted a white pair of good walking shoes to wear with dresses. These were absolutely perfect, supportive, stylish and not one foot issue for my entire trip.

These shoes are perfect for travel with the easy on and off! The water resistant factor is great for changing conditions, however, I do find these to be a bit too hot in the summer unless I wear footies vs socks. Taking one star away for heat. Would make it 4.5 stars if possible. The other thing that may be an issue for some is that these shoes may feel somewhat narrow to some. I have a regular foot but narrow heel, and I think they fit great for me. These shoes run my actual size and have not gotten smaller with the newer shoes. The cute look and basic colors make them go great with crop pants, leggings, and even casual dresses, skirts, or shorts. Very comfortable like all my Hokas!

Love this shoe except I think I should have purchased a wide. Tried them on but haven't to wear them. However, I do love the Transport. It's my second pair.

It took more time than my last pair to break them in. For some reason, there is something inside one shoe that is still irritating the middle of my big toe. I hate the shoe laces that come with the shoe. So I changed them. But I buy Hoka because they are softer on my poor neuroma that others. Aren't you glad that you ask. PS They send way too many emails and texts. So I unsubscribe and send the texts to junk

First time trying Hoka and so far so good.,

an 8.5 too small; a 9 just too lose, so not the correct style for me.
