Customer Reviews Hoka Kawana 2

No other pair of shoes has hurt my feel this much. I don't have wide feet but this is painfully narrow. Toes are completely crushed in the front. Feels like its half a size smaller than labeled.

The arch is so high the pain was unbearable.

Shoes were narrow due to the fact that they don't come in wide, horrible feeling experience.

I have 5 different pairs of the original Kawana and love how that shoe fit for my daily running. I had to buy the Kawana 2 since I could no longer find the original Kawana. First there is no need to put a loop on the back if the shoe it was easy to slip on the original Kawana and the loop looks silly. The shoe is shorter and just a crappy shoe altogether. Why they feel a need to change a great shoe is beyond me. Sadly I will not be buying anymore shoes at this time and will start going back to Brooks running shoes. Buyer beware in the Kawana 2 if you loved the original Kawana. I never leave reviews but I felt I needed to as I truly loved the original Kawana.

Your text is already quite clear, but here's a slight refinement for smoother flow: I returned the first pair due to a defective sole and received a replacement. After about a week, the same defect occurred. I just sent them back for a refund. Aside from that, the shoes are comfortable and stylish.

Narrow shoe no wide options

A portion of the sole fell apart, sent pictures to CS, and they will not ship a new pair until the defective pair is returned. Not sure what they want with defective sneakers. Now I have to find a box, ship the shoes, and wait for a replacement. Seems like the burden is on me even though there product failed.

I'll be returning this selection as the shoe toe box is a flimsy plastic with no support. I currently wear the discontinued Asaka model. The Asaka is a well built shoe. I'm looking at other brands that haven't reduced quality YET?

Purchased online didn't notice how overwhelming the gold on the front was. Not very comfortable either.

Walking

I thought these could be comfortable for me but nope. I have the transports and they are comfy thought these could be better I think maybe they have too much arch for my feet or something.

The shoe is causing a callus to develop on my big toe where there was none before.

I've worn nothing but Hoka the past few years and I fell in love with them. I just bought Kawana 9 and they are the most uncomfortable shoe ever! When I'm sitting down my feet tend to fall asleep.

DO NOT LIKE THIS SHOES, VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND HURTS MY FEET
