Customer Reviews Hoka Gaviota 5

Without my HOKAS' I would not be able to walk and work. I'm 69 and still working in a hospital 12 hours a day, I love my job. . I can't tell you the number of different types of shoes I've tried. None can beat Hoka for comfort, wide toe box and style.

I bought these for work (I'm a RN). I immediately noticed a difference. They are amazing! I like the stability I feel in my feet and ankles. Then, the cushion of the shoe, I don't have pain in my heels and knees. Such a relief! I want another pair to match my darker scrubs. I have a wide foot and wear a 10 in non wide shoes. I bought these in a 9.5 regular width and they fit great. Roomy in the toe area, don't feel squished.

The sneakers help my feet my left foot turns inward and when I wore other sneakers I had pain in my left foot the sneakers correct my Overpronation Yes I recommend these sneakers

I have plantar fasciitis and only wear the Graviota 5. Best shoe!

i have planters fasciitis! these shoes help do much! was highly recommended by my foot dr

I work in an elementary school so I am always on my feet. These shoes are so comfortable during the whole day. my feet don't even hurt and when I had my other shoes, they bothered me so much so I decided to try this brand of shoes and they are perfect for my feet

Each new pair to as I slip them on, has a "going home" feel.

I bought these to try because my husband swears by his. I always said I would never spend a lot of money on a pair of sneakers. I started getting some nerve pain (not related to diabetes) in my left foot and finally decided to try and invest in a good pair of sneakers. I also had an issue where my feet would roll towards the outside, so I wanted to try something with stability and that were plush for comfort. These not only realigned my feet (which took a few days to get used to, my butt muscles were very sore!), but they feel so comfortable and I'm so happy that I switched to Hoka.

Comfortable and stable. I walk on hard floors and concrete most of the day.. these are the MOST CUSHIONED AND MOST COMFORTABLE SHOE I have found. My feet, knees, hips, and back are pain free now. I have tried several styles and brands thank goodness for free returns if they don't fit well! I utilized that option many times until I came across these then I bought both black and this color. I really hope they don't stop making this style. I do wish the price would go down as they are a bit much for my budget.

Love my Gaviota 5 !! It's my 2nd pair.

I needed arch support for walking exercises and general everyday use.

I need a shoe that has more cover in other words I can walk in dirt and rain and not worry about my feet getting dusty or wet. This particular shoe is nice for summer . Now I need better coverage with the same sole. Do you have anything that might work?

Foot neuropathy and require orthotics. Gaviota 5 has enough room for the orthotics as well as offering a soft foot landing.

I have extreme plantar fasciitis, over pronation and flat arches. These shoes are the only thing I have found to give me relief. As long as I'm wearing them, my feet feel ok. Anything else has made them hurt. They have great support, cushion on the heels and stability is good. My ankles don't roll inward. Hope they help someone else!

This shoe (I bought a wide) has a beautiful tow box of a barefoot shoe, a zero drop feel, and yet just enough cush to protect your heel and back. I had misdiagnosed broken bones in my foot that turned into bone marrow edema and Mortons Neuroma. The foot then developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrom through all the PT they put me through before healed. Pair that with 8 ruptured disc's, a severed ACL, and Ehlers Danlos and you've got a MESS! IN COMES THE GAVIOTA 5. THE PERFECT SHOE. BUY IT, (or 5)

So my first pair of Hoka were the gaviota. When it was time for a new pair, I bought the hype and ordered the bondi 8. I quickly exchanged them for another pair of gaviota. I have some auto immune conditions that impact my feet and I feel like these were formed literally for my feet! I'm a full time high volume bartender and I couldn't do it without my hoka sneakers! I truly feel like a superhero when I put these on. I can stand for long periods, run, slide, and skip with ease pumping out drinks around a pool in the hot florida sun everyday. A MUST BUY for any industry worker!!!! I always joke to people when they ask my opinion on the sneakers that I will be buried in a pair. I will also mention that I have very wide long feet and buy the regular width. I don't even need the wide version.
