User Reviews
I gave this as a gift to someone with neuropathy and it gave her the support needed for walking.
I purchased these to wear while working in restaurant because I have previously worn Bondi 8s while working in the hospital setting and I thought they were slip resistant but they are definitely not! However, Hoka does make all black slip resistant shoes that I have since purchased instead which also have an all leather top which is perfect for work! Highly recommend these for all day standing without needing the slip resistance though! Especially if you tend to roll your ankles, the wide base of the shoe will help tremendously with that as well as add some height for the short girlies like me!
Just what I ordered
Hoka is a great shoe for comfortable all day wear, especially on hard surfaces. Unfortunately, this particular pair...squeaks. With every step, both shoes squeak🤔Hoping it's just this one pair, trying another model.
I wore them for one day and I’ve got a dime sized blister on the side of each heel. The cradle for the heel is ridged and I guess too narrow for my foot as after a shift at work I could barely walk from heel pain and when I got home found the cause in the form of blisters. Wonderful. Can’t return them used. Way too much money to waste on shoes that give me blisters. As it’s the sole hardness and shape that’s the issue, there is no wearing them in. Awesome.
This is one of the best walking shoes I’ve ever owned. This is all that I wear now to work, and my feet no longer ache. Great for if your standing for long periods of time.
Although was shipped wrong size, 6.5 instead of 7, but turns out that’s a good size for me. Appeared to have been tried on before, but I kept them anyway, bc I love them!!
I'm having a really hard time finding shoes that won't hurt my feet. Spent the money...wore them one day to work. They are not nonslip which I know doesn't specify but I mean any water on the ground you will go flying! Not work shoes at all. Bought them because they were all black but nope. One day & my feet are killing me. Returning them
