Customer Reviews Hoka Mach 6

My grandson wanted a p[air of running shoes. He LOVES them.

Don't get me wrong - I love Hoka shoes - but something with this new variation, maybe the foam, it has given me a pretty sever knee and ankle injury. As someone who runs 50+ miles a week - this is my first injury in 6-7 years due to a shoe.

I am a Mach 5 runner but realize the shoes do not last long after 3 months and only running on the weekends. Tried the Mach 6, comfortable shoe, only downfall I have is, the traction on wet surfaces. My route includes hills on the roads and I receive little response to traction so I find myself putting in more effort to push up hill taking away from the comfortable momentum already being used.

I have several pair's of Hoka's. At first I was amazed at how light they were and I was sold in my choice of shoe brand for my cardio workouts. I'm two blocks away of 60 and starting to have health issues that everyday guys like me start to get with age that also come with the added issues with my feet due to Type 2 diabetes I'm trying to do my best to control. I figured all HOKA styles were made the same until I purchased my first pair of Mach 6'. Chosen only for their bright blue color but then I put them on for the first time. What a difference !!! These shoe's are SO bouncy and springy. I usually do an hour of cardio a day but now I'm throwing in a few 2-a-days. I've tried an other brand that claims "MAX CUSHIONING" but they don't even come close. I'm looking to add a few more Moch-6's to my workout rotation. Highly recommend the Mach 6 if comfort is at the top of your list.

True to size, very comfortable and fashion

I cannot tell you how many Hoka's I own. When I heard that my favorite Mach 5's were being discontinued, I was super upset. So I went and bought as many of them as I could before they were completely gone. Then I decided to try the Mach 6's. I just purchased my 3rd pair. Love them as much as the 5's. Thanks, HOKA!

Great cushion, wears well, nice style very comfortable.

I have 3 of this for training for a marathon. Orange ones are my favorites. And I also have a pair of bondies which I use for work totally recommended

I am 57 years old, 160 lbs, and wear Machs exclusively for running approximately 25 miles per week. I've cycled through 4 pair of Mach 4's and 4 pair of Mach 5's prior to buying a pair of Mach 6's. The 4's and 5's were very similar shoes with barely any recognizable differences between the two versions. The 6's are a completely different shoe, they fit differently (more narrow) and run differently. So because you liked prior versions doesn't mean that you will like these. Jury is still out on whether I will remain a Mach user or switch to something different. This form forced me to choose Yes/No whether I would recommend or not, the real answer is I'm not sure.

Like these shoes but the biggest complaint I have is they squeak very loudly with every step I take.

I was suffering from plantar fasciitis, as well as Achilles tendinitis over the years and when it flares up was unable to run. I read about this model of Hoka and it did everything. It said it would between the stability of the yield and the extra cushioning I need. Now I'm back to running. I'm glad my pain has Subsided.

I called when my shoes I purchased had sole issues . They promptly told be about the return policy and credit to purchase the shoes again. Very friendly.

Super comfortable, true to fit. For a flat footed human, the HOKA Mach6 are among the best. I wore them all through Las Vegas, walking up and down the Strip all day, all night and my feet felt fine when I finally made it back to my hotel room.

I typically walk 6-10 hours per week (for exercise) ... and the Hoka Mach 6 is the best walking shoe I have ever owned. Such a perfect walking shoe ... comfortable and well-padded. I highly recommend these shoes!!

Very light weight comfortable. Great for walk/run

After more than 10 years off from running, I needed a shoe with good shock absorption. I am by no means fast, but the cushioning means no sore knees!!!

Mach 6's that just arrived are half a size smaller than the Mach 5's (loved them) I'm trying to replace and the Skyflows I use as trainers now. Mach 6's are short and tight. Returning.

Have had had multiple "models" of hoka shoes and this is the only one that has ran small. you will need to order at least 1/2 size larger. had ordered 2 pairs in different colors in size 12 had to exchange for 12.5 which fit better in the one and the other the 12.5 was actually smaller than the 12 so now i am stuck having to try and do a return and order again. Seems odd that i have to reorder and they wont exchange when it is obvious that the exchange shoe is a defect and not a size 12.5. Other than running small seems to be comfortable so far for the pair that fits.

As a first time Hoka buyer, I was expecting the shoes to be more comfortable. My feet hurt every time I run in my new machine 6s. I hope they will get more comfortable as I break them in.

The Mach 6 is stiffer and more ridged than its predecessor. Had to give up on the shoes after 50 to 100 miles as the new design was causing me knee pain.

Light but too narrow compared to Asics I normally wear.

The difference in HOKA shoes vs Skechers is the comfort. Skechers may have an easy way to step into their shoes, it does not come close to the comfort I experience with. HOKA. I have several pair and enjoy them all. Thank you

I went up half size
