Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 5

Perfect fit, I'm on my feet a lot. Needed something to make it bearable. It made a difference.

Love love love this shoe! A fan for life!!

This is my third Gaviota, I wear them constantly. This Gaviota has a rim of peach which I prefer. It seems to me to reduce the visual bulk of the shoe. Plus it doesn't have the flash color, so again, less visually intrusive.

I loved my last pair of Hokas but they had gotten worn down from mileage. Switched to these and immediately my ankle and hips that had started bugging me totally went away! Great cushion!

Comfortable but not support for top of your foot.

I've worn Bondis for years and loved them but now that I've tried the Gaviota, I may never go back. It's just as plush for those of us who need a lot of 'squish' under our heels but the footbed is sturdier so the shoe stays true to form as you break them in.

This is my 5th pair of Hoka Gaviota 5's. I have tried many other brands of higher end running and walking shoes, and nothing compares to the quality and comfort of this shoe

I love my Hokas's. I haven't bought another brand of tennis shoes since I bought my first pair of Hoka's. Three years ago. They are comfortable, stylish and look great even with casual pants.

I stand for about 10 hours of my 12 hour shift and these were comfortable from day 1

I use these shies at work. I walk alot willing at the hospital

I am retired and I wear these daily. They have saved my feet. The comfort, arch support and stability are excellent. I'll be ordering another pair in a different color soon.

I wear my Gaviota's everywhere. They're great for walking. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I wear them until they wear out and I buy another.

I started working after being home for 10 yrs. & standing all day an running around stocking. I'm at a hospital an everyone knows there BIG!! Well after 3 wks I couldn't stand using my good sneakers....so I thought. I started noticing the nurses feet an high an behold most wear Hoka sneaks. I jumped on line an did the quiz an they response was right on. The Gaviota were spot in. After 2 wks (my feet needed to heal) I started wearing my Hoka's!! Love, love them, no aches or pains even after 8 hours an I'm not a slow person...lol. Well 1 yrs later I now have 4 pairs same style an I purchased 1 pair for a co-worker just because she wouldn't listen, NOW she loves them too!!! Spread the word they are amazing. Thank you Hoka!!!!!!

It has support, and it has toe space! Very well made and super comfy!

I love Hokas so much, I bought them for everyone in my family for Christmas. I suffered from a very long bout of plantar fasciitis and Hokas saved me. My PT recommended Hoka and my DPM recommended Brooks. I tried Brooks but they did nothing for me. Hokas changed my life. My heel pain was immediately reduced. Foot pain is terrible. As your foundation, when your feet hurt, it really impacts your life. I gave away probably 40 pairs of athletic shoes and only wear Hoka now. I've converted my whole family! My husband and daughter are both on their feet all day and love Hoka Gaviotas now too since I got them some. My son is a server and loves the Bondi SRs I got him. He's recommended them to all his coworkers. I am not a runner , but I do walk a few miles daily for exercise. I'm a Hoka buyer for life now. Thank you for this amazing product.

The Gaviotas are my new favorite sneakers. Helps my arch support because I have plantar fasciatis and no more feet pains, lots of room for my toes too. Incredible shoes . Thanks

I stay all day with them, at work. They feel great, and fast walking is like a breeze.

I used this sneaker for the gym and let me tell you it is an absolute game changer

I just ordered these after being a Brooks and ASICS loyalist. Bit some knee and heel pain are forcing me to look at other brands. I do pronate and would always need an insert to help my disappearing arch. This is the first shoe that stabilizes my foot without an arch and gives me the cushion I need. To clarify, I'm not a runner, but I do jog on my 3x weekly 5ks. So I am definitely a routine, fast walker/jogger. That being said, after reading the reviews I ordered in my normal exercise shoe of 8.5 and my daily shoe size of 8. I will see which I will keep and which I will return. At the moment, my daily shoe size seems to give me plenty of toe box space, but I haven't taken them for a walk yet.
