The shoes perfectly but the toe box and wide sole make my feet look really large. My Dr. recommended a different brand of shoe.

First pair of Hoka's and my gnarly, painful feet are satisfied even after walking 5 to 6 miles a day. Will definitely look at Hoka again when current shoes need to be replaced.

This shoe is exactly as described. So supportive and comfortable. My feet are happy, my legs are happy, and my hips are happy! All this support and cushy comfort in one shoe! I ordered another pair 2 days after receiving my first pair. My delivery of both pairs of shoes was only 3 days and I got free shipping on both orders! BUYS THIS SHOE! YOU WONT REGRET IT!!!

Not worth the price. I'll admitthey're very comfortable, with great cushioning and support for long walks or runs. But the quality is disappointing for the cost. I bought mine in October, and by February, they were already worn out. The upper fabric tore, and overall they look far older than they should after just a few months of moderate use. For such an expensive shoe, I expected far better durability. I won't be buying them again and wouldn't recommend them if you're looking for something that lasts.

I can't say enough good things about Hoka sneakers! I've struggled with heel spurs and plantar fasciitis for a long time, and finding the right shoe has always been a challenge. The moment I started wearing Hokas, I noticed a huge difference. The cushioning is incredible it feels like walking on clouds and the support is exactly where I need it most. Comfortable durable and worth every penny.

I'm happy with this product. One of my leg has been numb and in pain from uncomfortable shoes. The first two weeks of using this product has drastically improved my numbness and pain. Currently, I have little to no issues at all. Would recommend to others who share my problem. Planning on repurchasing!

Daughter of mine suffering with plantar fasciitis who seemed to always buy athletic shoes that had been slightly used. After finding this out and speaking with friends that had worn HOKA athletic shoes shoes, I decided to buy her a pair of Gaviota 5 to try out. She immediately noticed and improvement with decreased pain. This did not solve the plantar fasciitis but I believe the HOKA shoes have played a big part in her gradual improvement!

I ordered a 9.5 regular width because I’ve tried these before in the wide width and they seemed very wide around the front 1/3 of the shoes (where your toes are). I would ordinarily never, ever get a regular width - my feet are very wide with bunions among other things and frankly, just hard to fit. These felt fine around the toes, but the middle third of the shoe was too narrow for me. I could feel the bottom side edges under my feet. Also, they didn’t seem nearly as plush as the Bondi. The snow melt color was beautiful, but sadly I had to return. I attribute this to my feet more than the shoe which was overall, fine, just not as plush and cushiony as the Bondi and of course the middle part of the shoe was too narrow.

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!

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!

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!
