This is the Best Value Model of HOKA Shoe
I love these shoes. And for the price, I don't think you can beat this model of HOKA compared to some of the more expensive ones. DISCLAIMER: I am not an "Everyday Runner". I run maybe 10-15 miles per week either on a treadmill or on pavement/road depending on the weather where I live. If you ar...

Not for lots of walking/standing, could be good shoe
I coach tennis all day (way more walking and standing then tennis playing!) and have been looking for more comfortable shoes that will also not force me to buy new ones so often. I'd tried probably 15+ different shoes and nothing seems to last longer than a month before my knees and hips start hurti...

Possibly my last pair

This is the 5th or 6th pair of Hokas I've owned. I believe the quality has gone down. After exchanging for a wide pair because the standard width was extremely narrow, I received the wide version, but the heel on one side is deeper than the other. The right show is noticeably and measurably more shallow. Not going to bother with another return, but likely will switch to another brand with more consistent quality.

Great walking shoe (too old to run any more......). All of my footwear is 9 1/2 so that is what I ordered. This shoe runs small - I had to exchange for a 10 - perfect fit. Exchange was quick and no problem - very responsive.
My First Pair of Hoka's…Why did I wait so long?!?

I use these shoes for exercise walking. I have recently been diagnosed with a heel spur and these shoes really give me the support I need to continue walking.
New brand for me in the gym👍👍

Having a pair that feels too narrow and small would be such a letdown. Never fear, as we are happy to help you. Check out our sizing chart bit.ly/HOKASizeChart for the most current sizing information. Send this pair back within the 30-day window with our simple exchange process, so we can get a new pair in the correct size shipped out. To start the easy exchange, click here: bit.ly/HOKAEXRT.
Not supportive enough

I read the reviews and unfortunately don't agree with some of them. Solimar is a nice-looking shoe but lacks support. The insole is just a thin piece of foam and doesn't cushion the ride.
I certainly would buy the Solimar again

Just a little breaking in (walking) before I felt that Hoka shoe comfort. I don't run in this so have no concerns about sole ware. But for knocking about, dog walking on sidewalks or trails, perfect. I'm a size 12 +, so would not have bought these if only available in 12 or 13. But 12.5 = gold.
The shoe fits nice and is comfortable but squeaks

This show is comfortable but squeaks in the midsole of n every step. It's pretty annoying to walk through the house or office and everyone hears your shoes squeak.
Official Response by HOKA ONE ONE
We see where you are coming from and want to help. A bit of cornstarch or baby powder sprinkled into the insole often resolves squeaking issues. Give it a go and see if this eliminates the squeaking. If you think your pair may not be quite right, feel free to send them in to be evaluated through our one-year warranty bit.ly/HOKAWty that covers material and manufacturing defects.
Please Keep Making the Solimar!

My hubby loves the Solimar style, but the colors are limited and a bit blah. Add some fun colors but please keep making these shoes. I rarely find a running/walking shoe that my hubby will wear without complaint!
Love 'em

Lightweight. Durable. I use a little mink oil on them and they tolerate moisture a little better
