I am a Hoka fan , I bought many Hoke shoes and I loved them! But this one looks so big! It's like wearing boots! Also they colored my white socks! First time wearing! Unfortunately, I wore them after the 30 days and can't return them.

I use them for work, I'm on my feet all day in a grocery store. The shoes rubs against my ankles and they don't give me the arch support that I requested

The shoes looks good and it is good for rainy days. It is light to use. But it is tight and it hurts on my right pinky toe.

Color was nice just a simple combination of black and vermillion/red. However, material is too hard for a 12-hr shift. The minute you put in your foot, you know, this will not be a good shoe for the entire day. Had to return quicker than a speed of lightning.

I'm in the market for "walking an amusement park all day" shoes. I decided to try Hoka's. When I slipped into them I noticed that there is not much arch support & my foot began to ache. I'm giving them the 30 day test to see if they are worth keeping or not.

I have had at least 5 pairs of Hoka Cliftons in size 9. They are wonderful. However this pair of Clifton 9 Gore-tex shoes in size 9 is too small. I'm returning them.

They didn't last as long as my previous waterproof hokas, within a year they had tears in places where I've never had tears in well used shoes.

I wear these for work and really need wide. I have purchased wide in the past. They aren't available often so I have to hope the regular width aren't to uncomfortable .

These shoes actually look like "Clown Shoes" in my opinion. The color was awesome but the overall look on my feet was NOT. So sadly I returned them.

I used my W Cliffton 9 GTX for walking around and jogging and running on the treadmill. It makes my soles hurt bad. It was suggested by one of your representatives to purchase this specific shoe. I failed to tell her my age 68. What do you recommend.

The shoe itself has a nice design, but the cut behind the arch is very low, which allows debris to easily enter while walking. The front of the shoe is also wide and must be laced tightly, despite it being a medium width. Additionally, two weeks after my purchase, I received an email with the same shoe at $30 discount. This was disappointing, as it would have been nice to know about the promotion beforehand. Overall, an okay experience with room for improvement.

These are super comfortable but if you're a walker every day these aren't for you. The front of the bottom wore down horribly. I've had other Hokas and they never did this.

I bought these as my Clifton's are kind of wide on my feet and there in reviews were called out to be more narrow. I do agree they are snug which is perfect however for some reason my upper calf's are sore every time I run in them. It sure it's my body getting used to new shoes or something else but in 20 more miles I will buy new Cliftons and give up. Good quality and color just not as comfortable as Clifton for me.

This shoe should come in wide this shoe would be perfect but it took narrow & the mesh has no give because of the goretex layer, which make the shoe uncomfortable for me. Also I wouldn't be able to wear a thick sock in the winter without my feet going numb, I bigger size would not help I plenty of room at the toe. The width is the problem.

This pair was my first of HOKAs. I used to buy 3-4 pairs of *another brand* for years and they quit working for me (customer service/size consistency and then, foot pain). I have a variety of foot issues from working out for many years and the latest is a neuroma in the ball of my left foot. I'd been working out in these for a few months now and they alleviated my foot pain. Everything i've been hearing about HOKA is true. But, this shoe with it's square toe and high profile makes me feel like Frankenstein (or worse, Herman Munster!). The good news is that i've now tried a couple of other HOKA styles and am happy with those, Yay! (thumbs up on the Stinson, and for a lighter shoe the Mach 6 is working for me too)

The shoe is great but not enough room in the toe box for me. I was hoping that they would fit. I would love to know if they are offered in a wide size?

The toe box is way to narrow from going from barefoot shoes where my feet spread I had to go to Altra's instead with a roomy toe box

I am happy with my Clifton 9 so ordered the waterproof version. Unfortunately the all black shoe was not at all attractive. Hoka, Please offer more colors in the waterproof version!

The comfort of these shoes are amazing! Love the fit and style. My only complaint is my feet don’t breathe in these shoes. While working out or a bunch of walking my feet get super hot in these shoes.

Ordered my usual size 8 that I wear in all other athletic shoe brands and it was much too large. I wanted a wider toe box, but this shoe wasn't any wider in the toes than my Brooks. It was, however, much wider in the ankle so my foot slipped around when I walked. The heel section is very stiff and I don't think it would be comfortable for long walks, which is what I want them for. The color, bright blue, is beautiful and the soles are dark. I don't understand white soles on athletic shoes. So, the colors are great but I'm going to a store to try for a better fit rather than keep trying online.

I was hoping for a lightweight, comfortable, waterproof shoe for walking on a trip to Alaska. Disappointed - shoe hurt the big toe joint of my left foot, I had to return. Odd, because I have a bunion on that joint of my right big toe and that felt fine. Very different fit from my comfortable Hoka Bondi 7 shoes.
I'd also recommend:
Merrell, Clarks, Ryka

Wednesday I walked 15 miles, Thursday I walked 11 and today I walked 13 My low arches are hurting more and more every day day which is something I've never experienced from a shoe, usually it's the back of my heels. I bought these to replace my Anacapa's and I'm hoping things get better. But so far the most expressive things is that the were shipped and arrived literally 24 hrs after purchasing!
