Customer Reviews Hoka Arahi 7

Im Arahi 6 fan, however when I tried Arahi 7 Im prety sure the brand lost the path for stable shoes, too bad for me.

I will not be ordering from this site . B the first pair of shoes we bought was not on this site and it does not have a tongue label inside where it is indenting my husband feet and making it very uncomfortable for him to wear.

Doesn't fit it's better to buy locally at least you can return with no hassel

I have some HOKA shoes for Work and Trail this one was so different less tan 6 months use the template is damaged and the sole is broken in a part.

This is my first pair of Hokas. The shoe has a very narrow fit and I feel the arch support with every step. They've also caused me to develop plantar fasciitis.

This model is complete garbage. I had the model 5s which were way more comfortable. And of course they lowered the price after my purchase. Trash shoe.

Hey. Am sorry. I had Greta expectations for HOKa. But the shoe disappointed. The arch support seems little bit towards the back and does not give the comfort my Asics Kayanu 31 gives. Also, it's a hard and while the show is light it did not give a nice feel for my long distance runs. It's ok possible for more stationary purposes.

I don't know how many years I've worn Hoka Arahis but the changes from the 6 to the 7 were enough that I returned the shoes. First, what's with the lacing? Who designs shoes where the eyelets are placed one directly above the other before crossing over? Yeah, I undid what had been done when I bought them but they still didn't feel right. Second, what did you do to the bottom of the lacing into the toe box? There's something in there that rubs my feet. These shoes were so bad that I returned them and swapped to Brooks. After talking to others who have worn Arahis for years, I have heard similar complaints. Go back to the old design or you've lost a loyal customer.

The shoe isn't wide enough and unfortunately they don't have the wide option in my size(12.5). If I could have a wide option this would probably be an amazing shoe. If you have slightly wide feet, which my feet aren't wide at all so I don't get how this shoe was so tight, then this isn't the shoe for you. I like the Bondi 7's so I'm just gonna buy another pair of those!

Got my shoe a little over a month ago. My feet started sliding in these and now I have blisters on my pinky toes. Not a fan.

The Arahi 7, like most Hokas, have awful durability. The inside of the back heel wore out on mine in less than 100 days, and I do not wear Hokas at work. Hoka gave me a bunch of excuses for why the shoes did that: excessive friction, poor fit, improper socks, overuse, heel striking gait, or normal wear and tear. Hoka is blaming me for their shoes failing in less than 100 days. Do better Hoka. I need to find an On Cloud or Brooks that will hold up.

Wanted to like this shoe for its stability, as I love the Bondi 9. But even after a wider shoe, it hurt my foot and had to return the shoe.

Compared to the 6's, which I owned several, the 7's are way too stiff in the sole and heel, and more importantly, they are now too narrow. The wides don't fit right as they are too wide elsewhere. You need to keep the natural foot width of the toe box of the 6's and the Gaviota's. I don't understand why you ruin a good thing.

Relationships are not built when everything goes well. THey are built when you make a mistake and your reaction to it. I had heard about Hokas and started buying them for myself and my entire family. I've been wearing athletic shoes for a long time and wore them for both athletics and athleisure. I expect to be able to wear a shoe for a year. It is a coincidence that the Hoka Limited Warranty is a year. One pair of shoes cracked from the insole out to the bottom of the outsole with daily casual wear after 5 months of casual wear. Clearly a manufacturing defect and not reflective of all the shoes they build. They denied my warranty claim stating that it was because of wear and tear - effectively making the limit in the limited warranty the ability to wear the shoes. I've had shoes from other makers that did not have a stated warranty replace manufacturing mistakes when they are brought to their attention. And I have never seen a shoe fall apart after 5 months like this one. I realize that there are lapses in quality control - this happens. But when it does, the existence of a limited warranty is not meant to obviate good business practices. So if you want a comfortable shoe, this is it. If you want a company that stands behind its products when it makes a mistake, look elsewhere.

I had this pair of shoes for a little more than 2 months, not wearing them everyday.

These are the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever owned. I got these because of a recommendation from a running store while looking for a stability shoe and feel like I've been lied to from all the positive reviews. I can barely walk around the block without my arches and ankles hurting. At first I thought maybe my feet just need to adjust to them after poor support from my previous shoes but it never improved.

I've owned two other pairs of Hoka's that were the most comfortable shoes I ever owned. The Arahi's were not comfortable. In fact, they made my pelvic area hurt while wearing them. It also felt like I had on two different shoes. I would return them, however your policy is that they can only be exchanged to the exact same shoe, not even a different color or size because I used Afterpay ( 've returned an item bought with Afterpay from another merchant with no problems). I cannot say I would recommend this shoe.

Save money and find a different brand! The show felt apart in only 6 months and the one year warranty claim here is a joke!!! They don't take responsibility of cheap materials, I have purchased 3 pairs of different and same fabric issues

I bought the Arahi 7 to replace my favorite 6 (which corrected severe plantar fasciitis)! I ran easy 3 miles (wanted to do 5) and had to stop as my ankle hurt. The shoe is now firmer and does not feel as "plush" as advertised or as it does in the 6! It does not support the arch nearly as good as the 6. I had to return them.

Narrow, cramped and painful toe box. Could not wear. Returned them.

This is the second time I have purchased an arahi. The first time I felt they were perfect! The second time, however, the sole folds rigidly cutting into my feet when I walk. Something seems to have changed- they feel cheap. The inserts also seem to be cut roughly and are frayed. Im afraid this won't last long- it's unlikely that I'll purchase a Hoka again.

I think that the shoe is mislabeled. What I received appears to be a woman's size. It is smaller overall and looks similar to my wife's shoe.

I'm not exactly thrilled with my arachi shoes. I had previously had rincon and they were much more comfortable and I enjoyed them"roll" forward. Completely different from the arachi 7 , far better for my usage

I wear a 10.5 in every other shoe I wear BUT my order didn't fit. Was WAY too big. My son wears an 11 and they were too big for him also
