Most comfortable Hoka I've ever worn for running and everyday use! I've worn Bondi and Clifton for 8 years and these are my new favorite. Only complaint is the price is higher than Bondi and Clifton. Please offer more color options!

I have every version of Hoka imaginable. I have a gym Hoka shoe, a walking Hoka shoe, A runner Hoka shoe, the recovery sandals, etc...and I decided to take a chance on these new Skyward X and they are heaven on earth. I have lower back issues, ankle issues and pronating issues-these Hoka's are like walking on air, taking all the pressure and pain away from my back, etc...They are expensive but so worth the investment. My feet feel so amazing in this shoe!

I've never really been drawn to Hokas. I'm new to running, started September 2023. Quickly learned the benefits of a good running shoe. Saucony is my jam. But I kept reading all these amazing reviews about Hoka. Bought a few running shorts, LOVE them. Great fit & quality. Figured it was time to try out their shoes. Skyward X caught my eye on colors and reviews. Sold! These shoes are incredible. I want more!! I have absolutely zero foot pain or soreness with these shoes. Lightweight & all around comfortable & supportive for short runs, long runs and even a good brisk walk! Welcome to my life Hoka!!!

in the past four years I have had six surgeries due to a botched Achilles tendon surgery. I spent over a year with no tendon at all. Needless to say comfortable shoes are a must this shoe is absolutely the most amazing shoe I've ever put on my foot, my bad foot almost feels normal in it, I probably have 30 pairs of Hoka shoes. These will be my go to, more colors, please!

I have pain in my right knee. I put these shoes on for the first time and my knee pain disappeared!!! I feel like I am floating on air when I walk around in these shoes. Please make more colors and offer wide width.

My new favorite shoes - I'm on my standing/walking all day for work and feet were getting painful. These shoes are like walking on a mattress, so cushy and is already relieving for pain after just a week. I also tried the Hoka Bondi 8, and the Skyward X is vastly superior.

I would call these more of a racing shoe than an everyday shoe, something meant for occasional use/speedwork. However I do like them a lot for this purpose because they are much more stable with the wide sole than my Nike Zoom fly's and don't tear up my ankles as much so I decided to keep them.

To say I love these shores is an understatement. They are luxuriously plush with the foam insets and soles. Crazy comfortable. I suffer from arthritis in my feet. These shoes are my place.

This is one the best shoes. I have like 6 pairs of Hoka but nothing like this one in comfort.

The new Skyward X is cushy and responsive. I normally run in a shoe with a little more stability, but I am enjoying running in this show. Would definitely buy again.

I love the shoe, and will buy it again..wish it had different color and think its alittle wide and maybe should have gotten an 8 instead of an 8.5

I stand on concrete 10 hours a day , 4 days a week and these shoes have helped. They run true to size . I just wish they came in more colors .

The Skyward X is my new favorite everyday distance shoe. I run 4+ miles just about daily, but I don't have the best arches or ankles (25-yr runner, here). I've tried the Bondi 7, 8, Gaviotas, and a couple other models to help with this - but none of these can hold a candle to the Skyward. The bounce and suspension are truly impressive, making for a comfortable and plush ride at any speed I choose. I don't even need arch support inserts or ankle sleeves with these - but that may just be me. Please keep these in the rotation forever, Hoka, the Skyward is genius. More colorways would be wonderful, too!

I have the original Clifton 1 and had been wanting the 9 but decided to wait..glad I did because this one is the best. I've spent 6 days in hospital with my daughter and the floor was hard under my feet..put on my Cliftons and no more foot pain. As a matter of fact I let my best friend wear them 2 days ago before her kidney cancer surgery Thursday, and her husband ordered her a pair for Mother's Day. Hope that speaks volumes. Love My Hoka One Ones!!!

I've been "taste-testing" all the shoes, trying to find the right ones for daily runs. I've tried numerous brands and styles. THE EAGLE HAS LANDED! These shoes are everything I was looking for, and more. Nice, squishy cushioning to feel like I'm floating on air? CHECK. Nice, roomy toe box making my toesies feel free and never blistered? CHECK. Carbon fiber plate giving me a spring in every step like a freaking launch pad? CHECK. Comfort, support, responsiveness, and hot-sexy looks, all in one shoe. OMG THANK YOU HOKA! I can now dry my tears about the Bondi 7 being gone (my previous fave).

These have been a complete game-changer. I have chronic pain, primarily from recurrent fasciitis, but these shoes have not only reduced my pain, I can even run regularly again without feeling pain later. I love Hokas, but these are my new favorite trainers and every day shoes.

SOOOOO comfortable!
I have the worst feet: bunions, metatarsalgia, just overall painful feet? And these provide so much comfort. Almost don’t need my orthotics. Almost.
Much more bouncy and plush than the Bondi 8, but the shoe base is not quite as wide and stable. Very forgiving and stretchy upper that don’t mane my bunions mad. I didn’t need a wide, and the sizing is perfect. (9) So far, so good. Happy with this purchase, love the spring color way, highly recommend!!

They are so comfortable. Instantly provided support and alleviated back pain. If more colors come out for this shoe, I'll be the first in line!

I struggle with hip pain due to scoliosis and have a hard time finding sneakers that are comfortable to train in. I was a little put off by the price and height of the shoe, but wow these are amazing. They are lightweight, bouncy, and supportive. I can't wait for more colors.

Positives - Fast Delivery, Out of Box Comfort. The knit upper molds to foot nicely - walking effortless, feels springy. I am a senior & the multiple layer cushioning helps relieve my degenerative lower back & knee pain issues.
Negatives - Only one color option (but stylish) & no wide sizes (but the mesh knit upper stretches so fit ok) Slightly pricy but worth it!
