Customer Reviews Hoka Ora Athletic Slide

This slide feels much tighter and more stiff than the slides I am replacing. I do not remember my current slides being this uncomfortable when purchased. My current slides are the best house/garage shoes ive ever owned. This new ones, I dont know if its just because my other ones are so good, that these do not even feel like Hokas. Disappointed, but if you decide to buy, buy at least 1 size up. I'm a 13, and should have purchased a 14 or even a 14 1/2 maybe.

I work at a million gallon Olympic pool where I've been coaching for twenty years. It's a highly specialized environment and good footwear is almost impossible to find. The stomping around on a concrete deck all day leads to back issues. I've found I need a lot of cushion. The high arch in the original Ora slides made for the most comfortable Hoka slide ever made for aquatics but there were issues. The high arch and lack of grip took a lot of getting used to in avoiding slips on a wet incline. The second version wasn't quite as comfortable but was the most functional every day pool slide ever made I've been through six pairs. Everyone I work with owns multiple pairs. As I've chewed through my collection I finally had to arrive at the Ora athletic slide 3. They're comfortable at the house but the solid band across the foot I suspect is going to wear out quickly from the inevitable sliding tensions I'll place on them. The arch support feels really good but the cupping feels awkward. I have no idea how that will translate to the pool deck. I will say this. For those of you working on a pool deck or boat deck every day you know the worst slides are crocs. Reefs and flat footed ofos will destroy your back and get eaten up by the environment transforming into ice skates after a month. I think Hoka still probably has the best every day aquatic slides on the market but idk yet about this third iteration. I know that right now I have serious doubts but I'll post an update if the news is good. Also I'd trade these in a heartbeat to go back to the first version. The first Ora's with better grip would be a game changer in the aquatics world.

Anther shoe I bought is same color hue so this is extra.

These slides help my back/hip pain when I get home from work I wish you made house shoes for the winter time.

They look like they would have nice support, and they are plenty long enough for my foot. But the arc that you slide your foot into is nowhere near big enough of a hole. I couldn't get my foot into that very narrow area past my toes.

Very comfortable!!!

The first time I tried my friend's sandals I knew they were a "must have", I loved mine. Just 2 feedback comments: according to the HOKA web site y was W6, but they were too big and exchanged them por a W5 (this is my regular size) and fit perfect. And second, I texted to the number that appears in the page and never got a response. That's why I rated 4 instead of 5. However, the sandals are a 5+

I need to return it because it didn't fit.

The color of the red sandals are amazing, they're super bouncy and look great with the big logo. The material and thickness of the sandal is great and very durable. Sizing was a perfect fit for my feet.

Fabulous slides. I wear them around the house and out of the house.

These slides are ultra comfortable and easy to slide on and off. They are very stable to wear. I would definitely buy them again!

I'm recovering from leg bypass surgery and these Hokas are a game changer!!!

this slipper is not bad. i would have kept it if it was not for too much arch support to the point that its uncomfortable. maybe it works for someone else. but it was not for me

Unfortunately, Hoka does not appear to check the actual shoe sizes of their products. I have 2 pair of Bondi 8 size 10.5 that fit well. The ORA size 10 I received were a FULL INCH too long! I understand sizes between manufacturers will vary, a full inch is a little much. Hoka could mitigate the problem by recommending sizing up ot down, depending on product. Waiting for size 9 to arrive.

Could be a smidge easier to slide your feet into with socks great and easy to get into and out of in bare feet. Very supportive for folks with plantar fasciitis. My go to for in-the-night bathroom trips.

I give this slide 5 stars for comfort and 4 stars for design. After a little trial and error, I ended up getting my normal size, size 8, and that was the right choice. Some people are having a hard time determining which size to get, but I'd say if you get your normal size you should be all right. This slide is extremely comfortable because of all it's cushioning. But I'm not a fan of the design. I think the way the heel sticks out in the back is rather odd. I'm also not a huge fan of the large "Hoka" written on the top of the slide, but since I'm using these as slippers, I'll give it a pass. I got these because I've had plantar fasciitis in both feet, so I need cushioned footwear.

Very comfortable!!'

Between these and oofas favorite shoes

I use them after work. I love them.

The fit is wonderful, awesome sandals!

After a long day of cycling, walking, or working, I now look forward to my relax-mode foot wear. Hoka's new Ora Sliders are perfect! They fit well, slip on and off easily, and provide deep cushion for tired feet. Thanks Hoka!
