Customer Reviews Hoka Kawana 2

I feel it's kinda tight, maybe I should have gone for a wide shoe, but the part of the shoe around the ankle is super low for some reason and It feels strange for me at least. Really wanted to like this shoe.

Purchased another pair liked them so much

It's a nice looking shoe but it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I walked around my house for a bit with them on and it felt like the heel of my foot could slip out at any moment because of how low it was cut. I also did not care for the look of the back of the shoe. I will sadly be returning.

I really like this brand. My ortho doctor recommended it. I previously purchase Clifton 10 and I give those 5 stars because they keep my foot from excessive supination. The kawana requires I use a wedge insert which is my only negative, but with the wedge my foot is kept neutral.

I love these shoes except for one thing. The shoestrings are too tight. They are very difficult to loosen for arthritic hands. Please adopt a better system than the flat eyelet style.

I am a size 8 but the left shoe hurts my toe joint. I think next time I would order a "wide".

Really great looking shoe....just didn't have the cushion comfort I wanted

This is a new style for me, the kawana running shoe. Light stable and good looking

I really liked the look of the sneaker but I did not like the pull on tab(not sure what you call it)It was very hard and pointy.

Nice fitting, comfortable for long walks, but the weight of this shoes is a little bit heavier than my other Hokas. I own clifton 9 and bondi 8 line and this Kawana is a little bit narrow but still comfortable.

I loved the shoes themselves. They fit perfectly and they look so cute and go with everything. However, they came with blue spots on the white part of it? I honestly do not know if they were meant to be like this or not.

I have three different pairs of Kawanas and the black ones are much narrower than the other two colors. Very noticeable! All are the same size.

I feel like they're missing some support on the heels, but the design is beautiful and they're comfortable

I love the shoes; support, color and size. The ordering, delivery, exchange and return processes are outstanding! Be aware that sizing was an issue for me; I had to finally order a full size smaller than other brand shoes. I am happy with the final result.

MUCH RAIN IN THE NORTHWEST AND THEY ARE SO PRETTY DON'T WANT TO GET THEM DIRTY

I use these for high impact aerobics and weight training. Bondi has the cushion I'm used to, so these almost feel like my heel is lower than it should be. My feet feel good after wearing them, though!

I have a bunion on my right foot, after a colleague recommended them and I read the specs, I thought they would be wide enoughthey are not, they rubbed the side of my foot and caused a lot of pain after wearing them for a few hours. However, I tried using a silicone spacer and a moleskin pad and it worked, perfectly comfortable now. I'm sure they are fine for anyone with normal feet; unfortunately, that is not me.

The shoes fit perfectly. They feel like I'm walking on a cloud. Only had issues with the shipping company!

I use these for everyday walking. They are super wide but length is good. Not as stable as i envisioned

I love HOKAs. I have the Rincon in a lite blue with purple color and wanted a shoe to alternate with it. I ordered the Katana 2 specifically because of the beautiful mint color. There is no way, shape or form that this shoe can be called mint. Its a mix between a pale aqua and lite lite blue. I was extremely disappointed with the color, I even took them outside to see if there was any mint green in them. There is not! That being said i love the shoe and the lite weight and will get a lot of use from them, but i would never have bought them had i known they were not mint green

I liked the style of these shoes so I ordered them. I didn't want black, I already have another pair of runners in white and another in lavender, so vanilla/sandstone was the only colour I considered. The shoes are super comfy, but I'm not sold on the colour. My husband convinced me that the colour is nice but I'm having buyer's remorse. I don't like the colour. But I've worn them so don't think I can return them. Maybe they'll make their way to the back of the closet :(
