Very Comfortable

Bought for my husband. He has typically worn brooks trail running shoes, but he liked the look of these. He has been very happy with them thus far. They look great and are very comfortable. The only downside is the tread has worn down fairly quickly.

Bad Online Experience

I order a pair online…never got an email confirmation. So I called and they forced the email, got it and 2 hours later my order was cancelled? So I reordered and let’s see what happens.

Worst Customer Experience In A Long Time.

Buyer beware, don't buy these shoes online as Dicks can't figure out how to send the right size. I ordered a pair of regular width, received a wide (which isn't even an option on the website). I returned these to the store as no exchange option was possible. I ordered another pair that same day using the online customer support service. I received another pair of wides. Not sure what's going on but I won't be shopping at Dicks again. Terrible experience.

Best Shoe Ever

I wear these for work and they are extremely comfortable. It’s like walking on a cloud. Better than any Nike

Hoka- Amazing Sneakers!

Once again I purchased a pair of Hoka’s for my husband. These were a little different with a little gold added to the shoes. They are comfortable as usual. We wouldn’t buy any other brand!

Love These Shoes

I have a hard time finding shoes that work for my feet. I love the cushion of Hokas but needed something with more traction and stability for hiking. These are the perfect “best of both worlds” shoe.
