Customer Reviews Hoka Restore TC

I have problem feet, particularly in the toe area. Shoes with wide and deep toe boxes are best for my comfort. For me, these shoes were a bit on the narrow side, and this took away from the comfort factor.

This is my fifth pair of Hoka. This pair is just as comfortable as the others but oh so ugly. I really like being able to slip them on. It is quick and easy. It also minimizes the time I have to look at them. They are great for walking as long as you don't look down, particularly just after eating. When my feet see them coming, I have to chase after them because they run the other way. Why? Because they are ugly; the shoes, not my feet. They're ugly, too, but that is a different conversation. Will I continue to buy Hoka shoes? Yes. All five pairs have made a huge difference in my walking comfort. Will I continue to wear this pair? Yes, particularly on dark, moonless nights. Will I buy another pair? Yes, if I become visually impaired. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so don't let my negativity dissuade you from trying a pair. There is one thing to bear in mind, well, two really, but I've already covered one of them. You cannot slip into these shoes without using at least one hand. They are not slip-ons.

These shoes appear to run true to size. I like the way they look, but I needed to return them due to my very high instep didn’t agree with the tightness across the top.

I bought these shoes hoping they would feel more like my beloved Ora Recovery Slides, but they are really much more like a clog, with a rocking motion when you walk, and perhaps a little less arch support. They just weren’t exactly what I was looking for, so I returned them. I did find them well-made and highly cushioned.
