Customer Reviews Hoka Hopara 2

The fit was different than my shoes from this brand. I did size down as was recommended. The width was narrow above the arch. The footbed material was stiff. The foot bed felt like the original Earthshoe brand. The quality and look of the item were exactly as pictured. It may be that this is the wrong shoe for my foot.

I loved Hoka Hopara 2, super comfortable! However, despite the fact that I had ordered half a size smaller, they were still too large and wide for me. I am sad that I have to return them.

I wanted to really like these sandals...as I love the Hoka Arahis I have. Since these were closed sandals I ordered them in size 7, same as what I wear in the Arahi 6 and 7. I found these sandals a really weird fit. While the toe felt scrunched there was too much length in the heel end. I feared if I ordered them smaller they would crunch my toe more, not being offered in a wide. Other wise I felt they gave decent support for my overpronating and flat feet. I could even wear my orthopedic insole if I wanted to without them slipping out as they do with open sandals. I ordered the cream/cedar color with they thought they go with all colors of shorts......not sure if it was the size as in too long but I opened these up thinking "these are some ugly shoes".......i do think they might have looked better in a smaller size and that look wouldn't have phased me if they were comfortable on my feet. I use to wear Keens but got tired of their hard foot beds, plus they started making them a bit more narrow and I like a wide toe box.

These had great arch support for me. I have knocked knees and over pronation, it’s a mess when walking! Anyway, these feel great on my feet and help my knees. I bought them in anticipation of our up and coming vacation and they will work great! I got the color illusionist/ amethyst in a women’s 10 and fit true to size. I slipped another pair in the picture I bought, those were for my husband and he got a mens 9 with worked well for him and the color was barley and oat milk, they are more muted in color than the online pictures so. More of a muted olive and gray color, they look really good.

These shoes are exactly what I was wanting…A closed-toe sandal that is breathable and can be worn to hike in. Very lightweight, but durable with great cushion, sticky traction, and extreme breathability. Very cute too! The toe box is wide, which I appreciate…gives my toes room to wiggle and breathe. Be advised that they do run slightly big. I wear an 8-8.5 in all other Hokas. The 7.5 in these fits perfect.

I love a wide toe box but these were way too wide. Looked like clown shoes.
