Customer Reviews Hoka Transport

Just received 3 days ago. Have been wearing them to my lab job in a hospital. These are now my favorite shoes. So comfy. Love the springiness and cushion, makes my old lady knees happy. The meta rocker has just .the right amount of roll that walking is effortless and my legs feel great after 12 hrs on my feet. I have a plate in my foot and the adjustable laces make it a snap to change the pressure as my foot swells through the day. I also wear insoles for a torn plantar. I had no trouble with wearing the shoe and the insoles together. There is plenty of room in the shoe for both my insole and foot, this coming from someone with a very high instep and arch. With the traction I get from the vibrum sole, I don't have to worry about slipping if there is wet concrete/tile underfoot. The upper material of the shoes is very sturdy and has some water resistance. A light sprinkle or a dewy trail won't soak your foot. The tongue of the shoe is wonderfully plush. The only drawback, and it's minor , is if you have narrow heels like me there maybe heal lift if you use the adjustable bungee laces. You are unable do the runners/heal lock with the adjustable laces. The shoe does come with traditional laces, but I love the adjustable so I'm ok with the bit of heel slipping. It's not enough to cause a blister. Also if you want to change to traditional laces, it looks like you will have to cut the adjustable ones. It appears that you can't use them interchangeably. The look of these shoes is nice. Stylish and great color choices. I went with the rose/purple color and I love it. I will most likely get another pair in a few months so I change up the colors. Also it's nice knowing I can wear then to work then use them for a hike/ bike ride with my friends the next day. In summary this is one of the best all around shoes I have worn in a long time. I can't wait to get another pair

they are ok. Not as supportive as I thought they would be.

I really like the look of these shoes but they're much harder/firmer than I expected. Sadly I'm sending them back for a different model.

I've been wearing Hoka's for a few years. I've had 6 pair. They seem to keep getting narrower. Last pair I purchased a wide, did not with this and wish I would have. Nice looking shoe but narrow toe box. May need to return.

Feel ok for a few hours then can't wear them anymore. Just sad.

Wanted slip-on - got that but narrow. Not as plush in the heels as most of my other Hokas

This shoe is comfortable but not for walking daily. I wish I would have stayed with the Clifton.

I love Hoka and have worn them for over 10 years. The Transport is not my favorite. The toe box is too narrow, and I don't have wide feet.

I read so many reviews and did so much research and expected this shoe to be slightly more comfortable than they were. I would say they are average comfort, I expected them to be a little bit better than that. I had purchased these shoes to be a good walking shoe as I walk at least a mile every day with my dogs. I also had plans to take them to Europe with me this spring. I won't be taking them to Europe as I was hoping because I need a shoe that would be more comfortable and better suited for miles and miles of walking each day. I really hate the no tie laces so I cut those out and put in regular shoelaces. For some reason, the tongue of this shoe continues to get stuck and I always have to pull it up. In addition, at the very tip of the tongue where the Hoka insignia is - is quite tight on the top of my foot. I am planning to return these shoes.

I wanted to love these slip on shoes. I usually love all of the Hokas I get but, unfortunately, wide that I am accustomed to from Hoka, wasn't the case with this shoe. It was way too narrow across the toes which is causing me to return these. After losing toes after an extensive illness, I have had the best luck with Hoka shoes. I can't wear house shoes around my house because I have to have more support. I was very hopeful that this particular shoe would work for me as a house shoe. Hopefully this will get fixed soon. Also,it would be great if you offered a wider selection of shoes in wide sizes. Usually if I find a new style in my size and wide, I snatch them up as soon as I can. I would really appreciate you considering this.

They fit. However they hurt

These new hooks were not as cushiony as my first pair which makes the less comfortable. I like the color but not the comfort

They are everyday shoes. They are the least comfortable HOKAs I have purchased.

Not as comfy as I expected. They are quite firm, with very little cushion.

TLDR: This is a weird shoe. It has the sole for hiking, the lacing for a quick trip to the grocery store, and enough ceiling room in the toe box to hang a chandelier. I bought this shoe to replace my Torrent 2s that I loved. I did not however love the latest iterations of Torrent so I had to try something else. I tried several other styles before I landed on Transport (really as a last resort). Pros: I like the upper fabric. I love the Vibram sole. I like the simple design (no silly graphics and crappy colors like the new Torrents). Cons: The shoe is the correct length but it is so bulky around the toe box area. Just so much vertical space above my toes. The heel is so difficult to lock down. Forget hiking in these with the quick laces - my foot would never stay in the shoe. Using the 2nd set of laces they provided, I was barely able to get my heel locked down using the loops because the laces are so short. And round laces don't stay tied well. The tongue doesn't stay in place - perhaps because I have a high arch so it scrunches down a bit as I walk.

I had a huge crush on these and ordered 2 pairs- even sized up and ordered wide but unfortunately it fits rather uncomfortably snug/tight compared to my other "wide" hoka shoes due to the garter-like material holding the tongue. I've thought about snipping them off but hey for the price ...I'd rather just get another Bondi.

I like the shoes, was disappointed that the color was not this deep in real life. It is a much lighter purple color than shown.

These arrived quickly and were a good fit, but they are not slip ons or hands free, as the tongue slides back when I put them on. I'm having knee surgery soon so I need a truly hands free shoe.
