Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 5

My 50 y/o husband always complains when wearing sneakers for an entire day over how bad his feet hurt. Since getting HOKA sneakers, he's a different person to be with!

This is my first purchase of Hoka brand products. I must say that the fit was just perfect and it was very soft and comfortable. They appear to be well made and using quality materials. The inner sole was also very comfortable which meant I didn't have any need to replace it with another product. The walk with these shoes was very comfortable and felt natural, light, and great stability. I will be enjoying this pair of shoes and will certainly be purchasing more in the future.

My feet are so happy! These are the shoes my feet have waited my whole life for and when I say my whole life, I'm over 70.

I have been getting Hokas for several years due to the great cushion and comfort. I have hip issues and these shoes relieve a lot of that pain.

Bought as a Christmas for daughter working in a hospital. She loves them.

Got these for my mom bc she's on her feet all day. And she said she loves them. She hasn't had any problems with her feet hurting since she started wearing these. I got her an 11 but I could've went a size down but she said these were good.

Feels good

Great shoes found my ultimate favorite!!!

Pricey. Worth it.

Take care of your feet! My husband loves these shoes and he can't stop telling people. Worth every cent.

Love them. I spend about 10 hours on my feet and they keep my feet extremely comfortable.

I purchased a few years ago and fell in love with them . This sneaker is all I buy

I like the shoes very much. I began buying them 12 years ago. Then they wre changed, about 3 yers ago, & I did not buy that model. I am now back with them & like the arch support & fit. However, they have the same problem I have always had--it takes a long time to break them in,so that I can wear them all the time. At least my last pair of Gaviota 5 is still functional, as it too, took a long time to break in, but now I wear it all the time.

I always recommend Hoka to everyone now. When I began my new job, which required standing on concrete for long periods of time, my feet were killing me. So I brought these in hopes of relief and I was amazed by the results. These are awesome. I call them my work shoes but I wear them everywhere, even for running. I've had them for around 6 months now and the plastic on the inside of the shoe behind my heel has begun pushing out. It doesn't bother me but it is kinda odd. Otherwise they're in good condition. I highly recommend the wide version too, I don't feel like my toes are stuck together anymore. And then do run a little small, so be sure to size correctly. I'm usually a 7 and I wear a 5.5 in these! If you follow the Hoka sizing guide, it's pretty accurate.

I had a foot surgery, so i have been wearing a hoka shoes everyday last 6 months . I bought this color to alternate my colors. It is expensive but most comfortable after the surgery. I have 3 screws in my foot. Hoka has not irritated my foot. They look still new as the first day. Good quality.

This shoe has more stability than the Bondi

Dont go to work wothout them!!

Love my gaviota 5 I had a knee replacement and this tennis shoe give me stability and comfort !! The best and it worth every penny

I use the shoes for working on concrete floors in a factory. Had numerous issues with my feet until going to Hokas. Great product!!

Comfortable

I love my Hokas. This is my 5th pair and they are all great.

I was "blessed" with some pretty gnarly feet. I developed quite significant inner and outer bunions which required surgery. My flat arches also required a lapidus repair. The only shoes my doctor would allow me to walk in once I was cleared for weight-bearing were Hokas. This is my newest pair, and they are extremely comfortable and supportive as I as trying out my foot again after surgery.

These are my walking shoes and used for every day purposes. They fit well and were comfortable from the start.

Please don't change them! They are perfect as they are!

I've worn every shoe known to mankind (Nike, Addidas, K-Swiss, OnCloud, Kybun, Sketchers, Brooks, OOFOS, etc) but now I only wear HOKA. They were recommended to me by my Orthopedic and I have never regretted trying them! I have owned at least 6 pairs. They last a long time, are super comfy, fit well and provide support. I own a catering business and have been in the service industry for 40 years. HOKA saves me. I wear them every day.
