Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 5

I ordered 11 women's as I always do (been wearing Hoka shoes for years), and these were at least 1 inch smaller in size than usual. There was no way my foot could fit into these shoes, so no I have to go through the hassle of returning these shoes. Buyer beware!

Comfort when walking

This is my first pair of Hoka. I am happy I bought these shoes. Very comfortable.

I wore out my first pair so I had to buy a second pair because I love them so much! My first pair I've had for almost 3 years, but I wear them to work and work 12 1/2 hour shifts in nursing!!

I returned them. At first I thought I accidentally bought mens instead of womens. They were so bulky and the toe box was so huge I could fit all 10 toes in it. Very disappointed. .

I have been a Hoka girl since 2018. They were recommended by my brilliant physical therapist. I am on my feet sometimes 14 hours a day. I used to wear the Bondi's. I don't know why I developed horrible pain in my left foot due to multiple fractures. Since then the Bondi's have gone from my favorite shoe to the most uncomfortable shoe. I went to a store near me called Peter Glen. I told the salesman exactly what was wrong and he suggested the Graviota. To my surprise, they are super comfortable. Worn them 2 days in a row and my feet are no longer "barking". They are lighter and provide more stability. I don't even need my orthopedic inserts to make them more comfortable! I have used those inserts for YEARS. No more! This shoe is saving my life. I work in a hospital and medical office. I give these shoes 2 thumbs up! They are a G-d send. Never discontinue this model!

My husband absolutely loves these shoes, he says thry are very comfortable

I have been looking at HOKA's for a while and finally bought my first pair and I love them. I didn't need any break in period at all. Out of the box and out for a walk!

These are great for balance issues and all around comfort. Plus they are so lightweight!

these shoes are so comfortable. they have a spacious toe box, lots of cushion and support, and super cute!!

Good quality but not as comfortable as my Bondi 8 pair.

I have had several pair of Hokas. But these have been my favorite. I loved them so much I bought a second pair before the color is discontinued.

I love the shoe however in less than a month they've already freaked around the eyelet on the right foot.

The first pair shipped unfortunatley had quality flaws, which can honestly happen. Nothing is 100% all of the time. Yet, for the price and what we expect from Hoka I exchanged for replacement pair, The second pair was exactly what I am use to getting from Hoka. Great quality, no shoe manufacturing errors. Hence the sole glue and manufacturing issues on the mesh frabric were free from defects and just a great shoe.

The Hoka's were great right out of the box

great shoes that are very confortable and give great support to those like me how very flat feet.

This is my husbands second pair. The first pair I got him for Christmas this past December. He loved them, but because he works in a hospital he leaves them there. So I got a second pair and he wears nothing else. Not even the orthopedics that were measured for his feet.

I have a lot of trouble finding sneakers that fit well. This shoe's wider toe bed is the perfect answer for me. There is a ton of support as I supinate, yet it's a light sneaker, meshed. I bought them in two colors!

Love this but I'm super inlove with my bondis still

These shoes are incredibly comfortable for doing my day-to-day life. I'm not really an athlete, but need good supportive shoes for work and just life activities. These dill that role beautifully! Not only that the colors are very cute!

I wouldn't say I have a wide foot but I have to be careful not to develop bunions as my foot shape is prone to it. These shoes have a roomy toe box and were instantly comfortable the moment I put them on. I bought the blue pair and get a lot of compliments. I'm looking for a second pair.

And have really helped with my shin and calf pain

On my feet for 8 hours a day cooking and delivering food to customers. I can definitely say these are extremely comfortable. No more sre back and knees. Hopefully they will not discontinue the giovata 5 this is the third pair I have purchased and I love them!

LOVE my new HOKAs!!! The fit is fabulous, perfect for my feet for walking and standing on my feet all day. I appreciate the cush, the colors and the lightweightness of this product. These were a gift to me from my sister, the second pair she bought for me and I love them so much!

The shoes are really nice, but not sure why they are not working out for me but the offer absolutely no comfort for the balls of my foot. My feet hurt really bad after walking for awhile
