Customer Reviews Hoka Torrent 4

I've tried a lot of different running/walking shoes. Hoka has been the best for me. I don't even need to wear my insoles. They cost a bit more but last so much longer. I think a better investment in the long run.

Product is beautiful and light weight

Love Hoka torrent 4 i have 2 pairs. Awesome shoe.

I'm glad I bought the shoe. It's comfortable and light and feels good.

Lots of room for my toes, comfortable and love the colors!

I'm on my feet a lot and these shoes make a big difference on how my feet feel at the end of the day. They don't hurt anymore. I love that they are very cushioned and lightweight. Live all the different colors too. They are a little pricey but how can you put a price on his good they make your feet feel. I will definable purchase another pair

Pro: First run out the box was 10 miles with no issues. The feel was very similar to Torrent 3, which I love. I like that I can go from a trail directly to the street without missing a beat and the shoes do not have the added weight you would assume a trail shoe would. Cons: The upper mesh material, that seems very similar to Clifton, is not trail friendly. Dirt sticks and does not want to be wiped off and any items that are kicked up on the run is felt, especially on top of the foot. The materials on the Torrent 3 seem to handle the battles of trail running better. I also wish there were more colors to choose from.

I'm writing this review because I bought my hokas back in August of 2024. I wore them for work and by November 2024 the sole of my right shoe was falling off of the shoe. I talked to customer service and they agreed that it sounded like a defect in the shoe. I sent them back two separate times after they agreed to have them evaluated because of this defect on the bottom of the shoe. I received a letter stating they could not refund me anything due to the warranty being expired. I've bought way cheaper shoes that I have had for years and never fell apart as fast as my $100+ hokas have. I will not be buying from Hoka ever again because of this issue they did not fix. Do not buy these shoes because they will not give you a refund on their defaulted products.

The beauty of the Torrent has been the simple design, lower stack height and lightweight feel with some cushion. It's tough finding all of that in a mid-drop shop. It's been my go-to workhorse for years from training to long distances. The torrent 2 was the best, the 3 was okay with some durability issues and now they've just designed a completely different shoe. The rocker feels weird if you're not a heel striker, and with the increased stack height you're better off just getting the speedgoat or mafete. This feels clunky and the stack height is awful for trail feel and rolling ankles in technical terrain. This new version shouldn't be called Torrent, they've just created an entirely different shoe and now there's no shoe in hoka's line-up that replaces the classic Torrent.

Very relaxing when walking

I love Hokas, and these are one of the best I've purchased so far. Not too squishy, not too hard. Fits like a glove. Eats up the trail. Beautiful design. I like the big loops at the heel.

Everyday wear, walking and shopping. Not as cushioned as the Hoka's I use to buy for work. Love the look, colors and style.

I love all my Hokas, but this beauty has become one of my favorites! Love the brightness of the colors.

Comfortable, safe , great support

As a chronic foot pain suffererthese go onto my feet first thing in the morning and provide instant relief. I've tried many other styles but keep coming back to the torrent.

I was worried that the Torrent 4 would feel clunkier than the Torrent 3. It feels basically the same, but maybe a bit more cushioning. Loving it!
