Customer Reviews Hoka Mach 6

After running down my Mach 5s I decided to upgrade. After initially feeling narrow and much more plush I tried them out on longer runs. They are significantly more narrow and speed runs caused a lot of rubbing and uncomfortable pressure. I was a huge fan of the Mach 5 for speed runs and this did not cooperate with my feet. I love the style and the tread of the shoe, but the fit just does not match earlier versions.

The design changed on the bottom and after 14 miles the longevity became a big concern. I'm a heal to midsole striker and an area had worn smooth, and with the bottom now made from different materials, I returned them

Not in love. Although extremely comfortable, I feel wobbly when standing in these shoes. Something is a bit off on their equilibrium. This is my first pair, so I'm not sure if this is a broader Hoka concern, or if it's just the shoe. Either way, I may want to return them.

Prior to the Mach 6 I'd been running in the Mach 5 for a while - I'd gone through about 4 pairs. After 80 miles in the Mach 6 I ended up returning them because they're just too narrow for my feet (particularly around the toe box). Aside from the fit issue I had no complaints about the Mach 6... but I definitely won't be buying the 6th version again.

I've been a big fan of the Mach 5 and even recommended it to friends and family who also loved it. The Mach 5 was low, wide, cushioned and responsive. The Mach 6 is taller, narrower and with more cushion, making it feel more like a Clifton. You completely lose the feel for the surface you are working out on, and the height makes it feel unstable. Try it before you buy it.

used bondi , tries these out, not nearly as comfy

I bought these shoes for my husband who has successfully worn HOKAs for many years. I usually buy a 10.5 size and they are very comfortable. He has been wearing the new pair for weeks, trying to break them in, but unfortunately he decided he can't wear them anymore. They are too tight on his toes and cause numbness. He loosened the laces so it's not because they are laced too tight.

To figure out what size I needed, I went to a local store to try on the Mach 6. Size 11 at the store fit great and that has been the size I have previously purchased for the Mach. I found the color combination I liked better online than at the store. Chose a size 11. When I recieved the item it didn't fit anywhere near what the shoe I tried on at the store. It was a half to a full size too small. It wouldn't be a big deal if I wasn't overseas. However, it cost too much to exchange the shoe. It is unfortunate that I cannot trust the shoe size online, becuase it limits the shoe combination I prefer.

I purchased on February 2nd. Today is March 5th and the rubber on te bottom of the shoe is starting to peel off.

I have returned this item. It was sent back to you with an explanation of its inferior stitching and assembly. I own three other pair (1 Mach 6 and 2 Clifton 9s) all the same size 10.5D and they all fit perfectly. After a few days of wearing the shoe and having my feet suffering it was apparent something was wrong with it. My letter in the return box asks for either a full refund or exchange for a Clifton 9 size 10.5D or Mach 6 size 10.5 2E. I prefer an exchange.

They are very comfortable when trying on but when running it kills your Achilles/Ligaments/Tendons. Running shoes are getting to caught up in softness of soles. Your brain cant differentiate the steps and instead of putting pressure on the bottom of your foot it goes straight to your Achilles Tendons and Ligaments/calfs. Dont be dooped these shoes suck when running and are to soft.

I am on my second defected pair . I wore the first pair less than 10 times and the sole started coming off. I was outside the return window, and only eligible for a site credit. The shoes are extremely comfortable, so I got the exact shoe. The sole on the second pair started coming off in the exact same spot. I may have worn them 5 times It is obviously a manufacturer defect. Hoka will not refund my money, only a site credit. Hopefully, I can find a pair that are comfortable and do not fall apart.

Shoe is not comfortable and seems cheap

Ridiculously light weight but generously uncomfortable I ordered the shoe online, I put it on in my living room, and there are a number of other shoes in the market that are much more comfortable. I returned to them. I was extremely disappointed that I got charged for return shipping, just to try out their product.

Hurts my ankles after only one mile. Zero arch support. This shoe came recommended by a friend, but it was a waste of money in my opinion.
