Customer Reviews Hoka Anacapa 2 Mid GTX®

Boots are too small, I normally wear size 9 1/2. I can't even get my foot in them. I'm going to exchange them for size 10.

Overall great comfort and grip. Did great in the snow for stability, but lacked In the keeping feet dry department. Toes stayed wet for the duration of a 6.2 hr hike.

Bought this model in early September and I love them but the shoes are starting to fall apart. I use them nearly every and I was hoping to get at least a year out of them not a month

These are comfortable and very light which is nice when elk hunting up and down the mountains. They certainly are not waterproof. I mean, even wet grass made my socks wet. This is a huge no, no. If Hoka could make these more waterproof, I'd purchase another pair. I would recommend to a friend if they weren't concerned with the waterproofing aspect.

I were a size 11,order a size 11.5,they fit like a 10.5.

These are comfortable I would wear them again for short hikes/walks but not for hard hiking long distance. Did a hard hike in these and although the grip was fantastic I was getting blisters around the 10km mark into my journey.

I want to wear these in a tactical setting and they are beyond comfortable. Unfortunately the first time I put them on out of the box at home, the bottom lace hook ripped out. I was able to return them to Scheels but they didn't have my size. After reading other reviews with several others having this common issue, I can't justify spending the money for what I can imagine will happen again and again until a new design is produced. Looking forward to se if these reviews help because they are very comfortable.

I would use it daily

I was amazed by the immediate comfort of these boots when I first tried them on. I usually have to break new boots in for a few months. They even worked well with my orthotic insoles which was a plus. They have been very comfortable and keep my feet super warm even with thin sock in negative temps. I wear them for work (I work on a horse farm) but I probably only wear them about 8 hours per week. The issue I have found with them is the wear and tear after only wearing them for a year. I bought them in October of 2022. In the summer of 2023, I was on maternity leave for 3 months so I did not wear them during that time. In December of 2023 I started to notice holes and water leaking into the boots. So with roughly 12 months of wearing them, I already need to replace them. I was disappointed because I have found with other cheaper brands of hiking boots, they do not wear down as quickly and I can get more use out of them. The caveat is that other brands are not nearly as comfortable. So if you are looking for a comfortable boot, definitely try these out. If you are looking for something more durable, I'd probably pass on these.

Very comfortable, great support. Best I've found for the arthritis in my right toe.

It's too big for me. On the website size guide told me to get size 8 but I still went with my size which is 7.5, yet it is still too big. This is also too heavy for me. I walk a lot and stand a lot, this shoe doesn't help me.

I was kinda expecting a little bit more comfort because I walk quite a bit, but not sure that I can say that

I got a size 11 like I always have but it feels too small, different from the other size 11 Hokas that I've worn in the past

Not as comfortable as my last pair. The heel is strange

To Big. The Shoe itself. Feels OK inside. I keep Bumping into things. cannot get used to the Size. Feels Awful when Driving a Car. It's like I'm Wearing the Box and not the Shoe. Love Hoka's, just not this one.

After wearing the boots for about 3 to 4 days, I started get a little blister on both the back of my feet. A bit disappointed about that, hence I hardly ever get blisters from any footwear I wear. The boot feels kind of tight, and a little loose. But it a solid shoe.

I use them for work in construction. I hope they hold up better than the first pair I bought as they only lasted six months.

Good evening: I work p/time at a golf course in selbyville de and needed a comfortable shoe that was waterproof. prior to the HOKA shoes i had olukai and LL Beans. they were very expensive as well but both got wet. i spoke to a rep with HOKA that said the Anacapa 2 GTX were fully waterproof so i purchased them. They are not fully waterproof. My socks get wet due to the sides of the shoes allowing water to penetrate. i do have pics to show the sides of the shoes absorbing the water from the wet grass.

Not as responsive as I thought they would be

This shoe did wonderfully as a hiker until things got wet. I spent a week with wet feet in the PNW. The grip and comfort of the shoe are fantastic. Unfortunately I would not buy this again because of the lack of breathability of the GTX combined with the lack of waterproofness, also the shoe felt narrow and would benefit from added space in the toebox as well.

3rd pair of HOLA shoes purchased. This boot runs a half size small. Ordered same size as my Clifton 9's initially. Exchange process for 1/2 size larger was quick. Unfortunately one of the side eyelets broke when lacing them for the first time. Contacted HOKA to lead turn a second exchange due to inability to initiate the second exchange on website. I was told to repurchase and work a return through that order. Not impressed unfortunately. Hopefully third time is a charm.

Needs different width sizes like the Bondie runners 1x 2x
