Customer Reviews Hoka Speedgoat 6 GTX

I made the mistake of not trying these shoes out before wearing them out of the house, so I think I'm stuck with them. Each step I take the shoes (each of them) make a popping sound. They dont slip off my feet, so I don't think they're too big. I genuinely just think it's the shoe. This is the first pair I've owned. Bought my daughter and I each a pair. She loves hers. Says her feet don't hurt an hour into her shift anymore. Wish I could get past the popping noise cause they're not bad, just hate the noises they make.

these weren't and aren't as comfortable pretty stiff this is my 4th pair HOKA with the Speedgoat 5 GTX Spike shoes being the most comfortable Please make more like Speedgoat 5 GTX Spike

Have been wearing Hoka's for years now and are great shoes, however, this last pair we got for my wife are too tight on her and there is little room for her toes. Loosening the shoe strings doesn't help much with the GTX because the tongue is connected to the sides for water-proofing.

This is my 6th pair of Speedgoats and they are just not as comfortable as my others. They are much stiffer and the sole is harder. I doubt I will be buying another pair. I have a previously broken foot and I rely on them for their comfort, so I can hike.

Not the same type of comfortable shoe i usually get from hoka. The heel was weird and pinched back on the left one and they weren't nearly as supportive as I need. Can't wear them.

I wore them and purchased another pair since I think 2024 they may have changed their design. The last pair I purchased this year was beyond stiff not comfortable.

The toe box is extremely narrow in both width and height, causing my big toe to rub on the top of the shoe. I always wear the same size in other Hoka models, so this was unexpected. Unfortunately, I purchased them from a vendor that doesn't accept returns. This is the first time a Hoka fit has disappointed meand I have very narrow feet. Hoping they feel better once broken in.

The shoes fit great but after wearing them for the day at work 8 hours my feet ache I also have a white pair I am saving for summer do you think they will hurt my feet like the ones I am wearing now? The reason I bought them is I only heard good things.

So disappointed in the changes made to the Speedgoat 6 GTX!!! I am a HOKA devotee and have had 5 previous speedgoats, 4s and 5s and a mid. The 5 was even better than the 4. When I needed to get new ones I saw the uncharacteristic poor reviews for the 6 but decided to give them a try anyway. Such a different shoe, wider toe box but a snub type toe, tongue is not padded enough and the shoe is just so stiff. Really wanted to love it but just not comfortable as the others were right out of the box. Please HOKA make a new Speedgoat and use the 5 as the model....the saying don't fix it if it ain't broke really applies here!!

I have been wearing speedgoats since the beginning - and this new change in the 6 is so upsetting. These shoes feel nothing like those of the past. I loved the speedgoats for the cushion, the comfort, the grippy sole. No other shoe compared to long days out on trail. First of all the sizing is different. A size 7 used to fit me like a glove, now I feel like I'm weirdly between a 6.5 wide and a 7. The sole is separating from the upper mesh. They are much narrower than previous models. The cushion is much less, so the shoe feels so much stiffer. The tongue design is terrible. Its like everything that was beloved about the speedgoat & stood out against the competition was completely taken away. I have tried to make these work, but alas, I will be moving on to a different shoe.

These were my first pair of Hokas and I really loved the look and that were Gore-Tex as well. They felt good in the store, the tongue was weird at first trying on but didn't think much of it. Well after wearing them for a few days and trying adjusting the laces and all the tongue and laces were hurting the front/top of my ankle/foot. Super disappointed I had to return them. Please re-do this style and fix the tongue! They were super comfy to walk on and the style is very cool. I sized up as well but ended up returning them and buying new balances instead.

I have a couple other Hokas that are very comfortable. These are not wide which I ordered for wearing winter socks. Too narrow/small and just uncomfortable with lightweight socks. If Hoka makes comfortable shoes, sad they cannot do that with these Gortex sneakers. If we are outdoors in yucky weather, we want comfortable shoes.

I ordered these in a wide and compared to my other Hokas that are wide, these are definitely not widein fact they seem smaller than a normal size.

I thought these were great at first, but after a 6.25 mile run, I had a bruise under my big toe from a pressure point. I can't wear these anymore. I love Hokas but not this one.

This is my 6th pair of SpeedGoats. The current version ("6") is not at all cushy; super stiff and unconfortable (even though it has a lot of foam). My feet and knees hurt after a run. Also, shoe is 'bigger' - wider, little longer - so does not fit as well.

Ok- bought them for the waterproofness but that are not where near as soft and comfortable as my other hokas.

I run and hike several times a week. The toe box is smaller on the Speedgoat 6, and the tongue is cut low and sharply with thin fabric. The 4 had a higher, more padded tongue which felt so good. The 6 cuts into my ankle even with thick socks. Very disappointed.

I ordered these in a size 9, which has fit me in all the other Hoka styles. They are huge! I find myself tripping over my toes on hikes they are so long. They are also extremely wide. Again I am very used to Hoka and their width. It makes for a really awkward hiking experience, I feel like I'm wearing clown shoes. My boyfriend recently purchased the men's, and those seem to fit him fine, but the loop on the back of the shoe immediately ripped off when he pulled his shoe on for the first time. Bummer! They have potential to be good shoes. I waited too long to do the exchange for a different size unfortunately,
