Brilliant! These are so comfortable and simply the best walking shoes I have ever had. Excellent quality, light and sturdy. I will order more pairs of these

Very comfortable, breathe well for a waterproof shoe. Fit is good, a little tad narrower in the toe box than my Cliftons, though. Also needed a half size smaller than the Clifton.

My husband was fitted in a local running store 10 D. They didn’t carry the color he wanted so we ordered from Nordstrom. Fit his foot perfectly. Note he is 70 and has had neuropathy in his feet, a callus that has to be regularly trimmed by a podiatrist who also recommended trying hoka shoes. He can trail hike longer than he ever has. He loves the fact he can slide his feet in without tying the shoelaces and wear as slippers in the morning. Just ordered a backup pair same size and tan color. He hates advertising brand names on his feet.

A great comfortable shoe for general hiking where ankle support isn't needed. Have been out in these quite a few times now and they are really good for muddy trails with good grip and waterproofing and even just for taking the dog to the park and not having to worry about wet socks from the grass. Not as spongy as other Hokas which is great too for added stability on the trails. Size runs a little larger than normal but this is good when wanting think socks on
Bought these for some pretty advanced hiking in Yosemite. Did about 15 miles in one day and my feet felt sore but otherwise fine. No blisters or hot spots. They have great grip and you can get the high tops for more ankle support assuming they fit the same. I do have narrow feet and I can see how these may get uncomfortable with wider feet. Looking forward to using them more.
Short term review. Wide fit is amazing. Tread is a bit on the aggressive side so these will be trail only for me. Aggressive dog walking lol. Getting them on sale was a big plus.
Have only gone on a few hikes so far but they are great. Light and comfortable. First time in maybe ever that I have hiked in low top hikers but I really like them, great grip in a rainy hike in New Hampshire’s Whites yesterday. Would definitely recommend them. We got pretty muddy and I haven’t cleaned them off yet. I am a 64 year old with a history of ankle sprains.
Great for hiking and wearing on wet days. I experience a flaw on the right corner tip of right foot where rubber shield attaches. The corner lifted up after short usage. I returned them and got a new pair. The same thing happened. So, I returned them and switched models.
I like the look and feel but the sneakers make a squeaking sound. Tried drying them even though, they didn’t seem wet and using talc to reduce friction. Worked for the first five minutes then squeaking returned. Starting to not where them. Will try to return. Third pair of HokasI’ve owned but probably the last.
Good stability and lightweight hiking shoes. Felt the difference in my knees on my first hike. the chunky heel takes some getting used to, but pleased with the performance. Was between sizes and found the smaller to be the better fit.
