Customer Reviews Hoka Rincon 4

while so far we love the Hoka shoes. the Rincon 4 - size 14 wide, gave my husband a sore on this foot. He is diabetic so this is concerning. We have initiated an exchange with a different shoe. just be aware, it could possibly just be stitching or where the shoe cuts across the top of the foot.

I had to go thru 3 pairs of Hoka and finally switch to a wider width to get one that was comfortable never had this problem before

The good news: These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had.and I've had a LOT of Hokas. The bad news: The tread wore out so fast it was sickening. Literally wore out in less than 3 months.

I preferred the previous Rincon versions (I have four other pairs with a ton of miles on them) so I've been disappointed with the Rincon 4. It's more firm and less cushiony. I made the switch over to the Bondi series.

Used it for every day shoe and it works ok. Tried it for running and it is terrible. Tried it for a workout and it was not bad but not the best

The shoes are nice, but they fit a little tight in the toe area

Fits and feels very well. But after less than 20 miles of running, the left heel is already showing wear.

Good

I loved the look of the show and they're nice and light with great cushioning. They just didn't fit the way shoes my size normally for in the toe area. They were rubbing against my big toe so I actually had to return them. Maybe they just fit a little tighter than Hoka shoes I've had in the past. Just something to be aware of.

Loved this show when I first became a marathon runner 7 years ago. Rincon 1 and 2 were amazing on the feet. This version of Rincon 6 and 7 just doesn't compare to the first version. They don't feel the same on the feet .

This update improves the interior of the shoe and it's very smooth for sockless runners like me. I've run on Rincons since they were incepted, and I really loved that the shoe was perfect on the first run right out of the box. This update changed the shape of the front of the shoe - much less room for the toes. The 4 activates my Morton's neuroma (sharp nerve pain in the middle toe) in ways that the previous models never did. It's not a sizing issue, it's a design issue - much less room in the toe box. My foot is all choked up in there. Here, Hoka seems to have replicated the basic trainers that Nike made 20 years ago. The shoe is too expensive for its features, and causes this seasoned runner foot pain, so it will have to go back. Hoka, please try again. I loved the Clifton until you changed it, now the same with the Rincon. I'd love to know more about how your design team makes decisions on how/when to update your shoe models.

Earlier version of the Ricon was much better. In fact I'll go back to using my older pair

Great for walking. Heels started to come apart around 120 miles. Didn't happen with my challenger 8s.

I used to love the Rincon, but the narrowing of the toe box has changed my opinion. It is now too tight and uncomfortable for my runs and I won't be buying this again unless the toe box goes back to the size it was.

Don't know needed larger size and wider. Not offered.

My shoes wore well but quickly wore out. Ive almost slipped and fallen a few times. I submitted a warranty claim and it took 10+ days to tell me they didn't get all the pictures. I fell like the warranty team is just making it difficult so I don't give up...about to just go buy some brooks.

This is my second pair of hokas The other ones lasted me six months like all my other sneakers. These lasted less than three months.
