Great daily driver. Not the fastest shoe for tempo runs, but perfect for easy miles. The fit is snug but secure. Dig the minimalist look. Would buy again. 👍

Lightweight and breathable. My feet don’t sweat like a sauna anymore. 🧖♀️❌ Perfect for summer runs. The Castlerock color goes with everything, even my mismatched socks. Fashion win! 🧦✨

Durability issue. The mesh tore after just 3 weeks of gym use. Maybe I have Hulk feet? 🦶💥 Expected better quality for the price. Comfort was great while it lasted, though.
Lyd******itt
Disappointed. Sizing was off compared to my previous Clifton 7s. Had to return. Also, the laces feel cheap. Expected better quality control from Hoka.
Mr. Dw************ng Sr.
Just wow. 🤯 I bought these for gym sessions and ended up wearing them everywhere. Grocery store? Yes. Date night? Maybe not, but I wanted to. Super versatile and stylish enough for casual wear. 🔥
Ampa********zie
Love them! So soft and responsive. Great for recovery runs. The anthracite shade hides dirt well which is a plus. 👟✨
Mr. *********mann
Bought these for my husband who complains about everything. He hasn’t complained once. That alone is worth 5 stars. He says they’re ‘pretty good’ which is basically a love letter from him. 💌👟
Mr. *********d MD
Perfect for my weekend hikes. Not too technical, but enough grip and support for light trails. Plus, they look cute with jeans. 🥾➡️👖 Win-win!
Ros*******ind
Really nice shoe. The cushioning is plush without being mushy. Good for recovery runs. Took one star off because the laces are a bit thin/cheap feeling.

Hoka never misses! 🙌 This colorway is understated yet premium. Wore them on a weekend hike and they held up well. Breathable and supportive. A must-have for sneakerheads and runners alike.
