Like Running On A Cloud

These are probably my favorite out of all the Hoka shoes I've owned. Amazing comfort, plenty of impact protection, decent energy return, and they even fit my wide feet (in a D width). Perfect for running the trails around NCAR in Boulder.

Great Feel

I have always wanted a pair of hoka found these on sale was heading to Disney for a week decided to give them a try. Wore from day one every day walking all the theme parks and never had a problem with my feet as unusual. Couldn’t believe it. Got back home and ordered the SR HOKA Arhia couldn’t be happy with both of them.

Comfortable And Great Stability

I walk 5 miles a few times a week in a rural area that has a few miles unpaved. These sneakers provide the perfect amount of stability around ankle and are comfortable for walking on the terrain.
