Description
Cloud-weight cushion, built for the long haul. Renowned for its startling cushion-to-weight ratio, the Rincon 4 received a top-to-bottom makeover to ensure the uber-light softness it’s famous for lasts through even more miles. Upgraded foam provides better rebound while increasing longevity, and works together with rubberized EVA to make each step feel softer than the last. With a durable podular outsole design and a more foot-hugging fit than before, this daily trainer is engineered for a longer life without weighing you down.

Good, even if it doesn't feel like a Rincon
Good, but don't expect it to be a copy of the Rincon 3. Still serviceable as a daily for lighter-gait folks and for speed work. It fits narrower (like a Mach), and the heel cup is a bit lower and less snug than the 3. Hoka seems to have enhanced the tread durability, though I regularly put 500-600...

Tread Worn Down in Under 100 Miles!
My Rincon 4s were delivered 7/22 and I've only worn them 8 days (8.5-9 miles each day, walking on asphalt road). I have 14 pairs of Hokas, mostly Rincon 3s but also Zinals and Challengers. I trade off every 2 days to a different pair (to match my walking outfits and also to give them a chance to br...

These are not black/grayish. They are lavender/purple. Make sure you see them in person.

Uncomfortable
Nice looking shoe. The shoe was uncomfortable. It didn't have much cushion like the Bondi 9.

Our Rincon 4 is a beast on streets with it's balanced cushion but if a plush style is your sweet spot, we have many styles available you'll be sure to love. We think you'll love our Skyward X, boasting a plush sole and a revolutionary suspension system with a convex carbon fiber plate that allows a springy ride.

Rincon 3 was a better shoe
please bring back the Rincon 3. the 4 pronates too much and if you have any ankle issues, this is a problem. the Rincon 3 was a better, more stable shoe. why change...it was a great shoe. the Mayo Clinic recommended it for me when I had an ankle issue.

Official Response by HOKA ONE ONE
Having a supportive shoe can be a game changer, and sadly your pair didn't tick all the boxes. The Arahi 7 shoe in our lineup might be a perfect shoe for you since you are looking for more support. This HOKA favorite is one of our stability shoes that features a supportive flat-knit upper, dual gusseted tongue and has our J-Frame™ midsole support for stability. Make your way to our site bit.ly/HOKAEXRT to get your simple exchange started.
Life changing
Found out bout your product from a coworker. I'm on my feet at least 10 hrs a day so needless to say my feet were sore usually half way thru my day. I tried many other brands to only find temporary relief. Put off buying hoka shoes cuz of the cost, well I was convinced by my coworker to give them a try and haven't looked bk since. Been wearing your product for 3 years now. Thanks
Rincon is Back !!
If you liked the Rincon, 1 & 2 and did not like the 3, the Rincon 4 is your shoe again. A great smooth easy ride. Prefect shoe for easy training runs and some flat road work. Light weight and the sizing is true to size. I believe the new sole will hold up well. Good to have one of my old favorites back.
