Customer Reviews Hoka Kawana 2

I don't like this pair of shoes they just don't fit right

I was so excited to wear this shoe, it felt so plush in store. I'm a hairstylist and prioritize the comfort of my body after a long day at the salon. After only 3 hours of wearing these shoes, my back hurt VERY badly. After some research, I found that these shoes have no arch support, not at all. Actually, only the Arahi 7 has firm inner arch support for high arches. I'm shocked and disappointed; I thought HOKAs were designed more thoughtfully than that. I returned these after that one wear because my back hurt for the rest of the day.

Wanted to find another workout shoe brand that focuses on foot health but these shoes are just not worth the price for the fit. Although light to the feel, the design and material did not feel sturdy nor supportive of my toes nor arch. We need shoes designed by podiatrists with a flair NOT cartoonists selling yet another cheaply made product with high mark up.

I bought these for work- I'm a nurse and on my feet for 12 hours a day. 2 months after buying these shoes and wearing them for work my feet and legs hurt terribly.

Shoes were a little heavy in my feet and sole is too thick for my liking's

I got this pair to rotate with my other hokas. The others have held up very well after one year so I thought I'd try this model to rotate. So I do not wear these often on for long,parts of the bottom are shredding off so easily it is terrible and haven't even used them 2 months. Very frustrating.

I wore the shoes to work . I only have. 5 hour work shift . My feet were killing me . I haven't been that sore in a long time

I loved the Kawana 1 shoe for cross training at the gym. It was absolutely perfect. After 2 years of gym use 3-4 days/week, I decided to order another pair. I don't know why, but the sizing is completely different. These were so large and sloppy. I laced them as tight as I could and still couldn't get them comfortable. I held them up to the old show, and sure enough they are about 1/4 inch wider- almost as if they are now unisex. Going to try another style before I switch brands, but I really loved these.
