Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 5

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.

Good substitute for the Bondi 8 in stability.

These shoes are so comfortable that I don't need to "break them in". I have bad feet and it's very hard for me to find shoes that do not hurt. I pretty much only wear Hoka shoes now.

Like the height and the width super supported

This is one of the best shows I have worn in a long time! Comfortable just out of the box, perfect cushion, and fits perfectly.

I participate in group fitness at the gym. Jumping, lifting, HIIT. These are the perfect shoes. Not too plush and flat on the bottom keeps me balanced. Please do not change these!

Greatest shoes

Got rid of my plantar faciitis!

Best sneaker I have had in 50 years for support and comfort. I have tried alot of brands. My wife has now switched to Hokas for support. I needed an extra wide shoe 4E. They are hard to find

Like walking on air, most comfortable gym shoe I have ever purchased.

Love Hoka Gaviotas. I'm very flat footed and these shoes help with support and cushioning to get me thru long days on my feet.
