Customer Reviews Hoka Mach 6

I'm an overnight manager in a grocery store in charge of the night crew I walk anywhere from 4 to 10 miles a night. I usually average about 6.7 for the week on concrete floor so far these mach 6 are my favorite if they made of GTX version of this I would be one happy camper

After years of searching, I fell in love with the Mach 5, the best running shoe I had ever found to fit me...; with my choices now limited, I decided to go with the Mach 6. It is an excellent running shoe but does not provide the comfort or adequate toe box the Mach 5 did. A decent daily runner, but not the same

I love the feel of the Mach 6 when first worn out of the box with one big exception...It is a bit narrow in a size D and is a bit more narrow than the Mach 5. That being said, it is a very bouncy, energetic shoe for about 100 miles. After that, the rocker becomes less pronounced, and the bouncy feeling in the mid-sole declines. Could be Hoka's best shoe if they can correct the "narrow fit" and add some life to the shoe.

Before purchasing online (aware of the great return policy) I read the reviews. That being said I was expecting the Mach 6 to be totally different than the Mach 5 (which I purchased 4 pairs and love) Most reviews were about the shoe sizing and toe box being smaller than the 5s. I'd agree with this. I have a wide foot so I typically order half size up and the wide option, going up half a size only made this shoe fit just a little too snug. Not too tight, but not cramping my foot. I went on a 5k run right away: too tight about the mid foot, extra grippy (new rubber layer on bottom of shoe), there seems to be more material in the heel area for cushion too. Second run 10k: I loosened my laces, and the shoe felt better. Bouncy, lighter, and feels more like the race day shoe I was looking for. All in all it's not a Mach 5. I don't have any major complaints because I understand there would be some changes. will keep these. Fly on

I haven't run enough miles in that shoe. It felt okay, but not so great yet.

This is an amazing shoe. However, advertising the color to be all black is deceiving. They are black and grey, and actually I would say 60% grey/40% black. I run in these and wanted a second pair in all black to wear as a basketball official.

Is a great shoes I use it every day very confortable. Lets see how long they last

This is my 3rd version of the Machs that I've owned and run in. Personally use Clifton's for slow easy runs and Machs for my faster runs. These did end up being a little snug compared to past versions so I've exchanged them for half size up my normal hoka size and now they're perfect.

I thought I had chosen the women's size 8 but ended up being men's so the fit a little big. Other than that, I absolutely love them.

I've had three pairs of cliftons in size 11, so I bought these in size 11 as well and it rubs quite a bit on my big and little toes. Might get better as it breaks in, but I definitely wish I went a little bigger. I don't really understand why even running shoes prioritize an "aesthetically pleasing" pointy toe shape that looks nothing like anyone's actual foot. Altra seems to be the only company doing anything different. It would be nice if hoka could adapt a wider toe box. Other than that though everything seems great so far. They look great, feel lighter than Cliftons, I was able to run 10 miles with some tempo right off the bat, and they performed great. The rubber on the bottom is slippery on wet asphalt, so perhaps that could also be improved, but overall pretty good.

Just an awesome shoe that you can run long in, use as an every day trainer, use for speed work and use for racing. One complaint? The toe box needs to be just a bit wider in a men's D. The wide size is just too sloppy for me. I sell Hokas in a running shop, and this a complaint mentioned by many would-be buyers.

Shoes are super comfortable and support lots of walking. I did however find that one of the inside soles appears to be shredded somewhat after only wearing 5 days.

As a previous owner of the Mach 4, I feel as though the Mach 6 fits a little more narrow than its predecessor. I love the lightweight aspect of the Mach series & it has the perfect bounce for light runners (I usually run 3-6 miles, nothing too crazy), but I'd recommend either going up a half-size or trying a wide. Still a great shoe though.

Absolutely love the feel of this shoe, but the 2E width fits like a D width. Moving away from the Mach now to something for my daily short-med length runs. Disappointed as everything else about the shoe is wonderful.

I like the feel of these shoes. I love that they are so lightweight. My one complaint is that the shoes I have are too wide. I had to order men's size 11.5 because you did not carry size 13 narrow in women's. I know lots of women who wear large-size shoes like mine. Making a longer, narrow shoe for women would be great! I'm waiting for that!

The shoes feels really great on foot. It's designed really well. One of the first running shoes I've owned (I own A LOT of running shoes) that I didn't have to use runner's loop. Fits like a glove. I really like it when I sped up, but to me it felt cumbersome at slow paces. Could have been tired legs. Great shoe over all.

As a Senior it has taken me a while to get use to walking. However the Shoes are Great.

Shoes are comfortable and look great. I have been trying to break them in, for everyday walking they have felt very good. For running not the best experience yet. It is my first-time using haka as I usually use brooks or Nike. They have felt a bit stiff on 3 runs that I have done, 5 miles each, a bit of pain on the soul of my feet. Could just be my foot but I have been recommended to these after shoe fittings in road runners. Conclusion, look and feel great for everyday use, not the bets for running. But this is just my experience

Quality shoe, best shoe out there. Love them all.

The shoes are confortable but I feel like I will either fall forward or backward. It seems like the shoes curl up in the front and also in the back. I don't feel that it is stable.
