Most Liked Positive Review
I thought my old brand was great until I tried HOKA-AMAZING!
I'm in my 30s and HOKA's were suggested by my orthopedic surgeon. I bought the kid's size 5.5Y and I am a Women's 7-ish. I generally go by my corresponding European shoe size when trying new brands as I find that more accurate than US sizing across brands. I'm a EU 37, a rare 36. If you have wi...
Most Liked Negative Review
I will not buy directly from HOKA again.
After only two months of regular use, my son's SpeedGoat shoe laces snapped in two. The company has informed me that they do not sell replacement laces and that I should search third party options. This is unacceptable. He loved the shoes themselves, but they are now basically useless, unless we ...

Comfort all day!
I wear these while I work at job where I'm on my feet for at least 5 hrs straight, standing, walking, bending.. NO SITTING! They're breathable, bouncy, stylish, and if I had to be on my feet longer, I have no doubt I could go another 5+ hrs without issues. Best investment I've made for myself in a long time!
Beautiful but not my size
The speedgoats are beautiful. However, I mistakenly ordered a 7Y instead of a woman's size 7. Sadly I had to send them back.
Another Great Hoka Shoe!
I generally wear a Women's size 7 and decided to jump (fly!) over to a youth 5.0 to see if it would work - and it does, yea! May not in all models, though. great colors, too.
Tight fit
I wanted to love these. They are my 1st pair of hokas after hearing great things. I like the style. I love the color. The problem is they are tight. I mean uncomfortably tight and I don't have wide feet I have narrow feet. I don't know if you have to break these shoes in or not. I'm probably going to return them. Disappointed. I will try a different style maybe.

We wanted you to love this pair as well, but you are never stuck with a pair you don't love. You have our 30-day guarantee bit.ly/HOKA30Day to test them and if they aren't going to work, send them back. You can also try a wide width to see if that feels more comfortable. Our exchange process bit.ly/HOKAEXRT is hassle-free and simple to get started.
Love the look and feel of the shoe!
I have worn these sneakers a few times and not only did I get numerous compliments, but they absolutely fit like a glove and feel like a comfy slipper on my foot. I love the workmanship and the support they give. I like colorful shoes, and these do not disappoint! I would definitely buy them again.
Very comfortable
Its very comfortable when I used it but its just that you guys sent me the wrong size l, I ordered 7 W and 7M arrived. Its been returned and I am waiting for my refund so I order a new one
Very hard soles
I'm very disappointed with these HOKA shoes despite of its reputation as the most popular brand for healthcare professionals. On the first day I wore it, my feet and ankles pain like he..! Oh I have been giving it sometimes to break. Still the same, so I replaced the sole with my expensive "Superfoot" orthopedic soles. Enough is enough, I'm returning them. Disappointed!!

We agree, it's hard to tackle the day when you're uncomfortable. It's sounds like this may not be the right model for you! No worries as we have many styles available, like our Bondi 8 - champion of cushion, that may work better for you. Give them a try through our 30-day guarantee bit.ly/HOKA30Day by starting your easy exchange here: bit.ly/HOKAEXRT.
Love this shoe!
Had a pair of Hokas that I had literally wore out! Wore them so much bottoms were slick and no longer safe to wear. Reluctantly threw them out and tried wearing my other sneakers - New Balance and saucony. Although both are ok, they are not Hokas! I searched for Hokas on sale and came across these, I'm a women's size 7 and bought a youth size 5.5. These shoes make such a huge difference! They are so much more comfortable and I do not get fatigued walking or hiking in them. I will not waste money on any other brands in the future! Will only buy Hokas!
Made for kids only (obviously)
I'm the adult who can still fit youth sizing. It works out for me financially however, performance wise, I should've chosen a shoe that's geared towards adult feet. They provided the comfort needed until they didn't. Walked around amusement parks for hours and by the end of the day, my feet were hurting. Overall great shoe, just wasn't for me I suppose.
