Comfort and Waterproof
These are very comfortable Gore-tex waterproof boots, although they wear like sneakers.

Love my Hokas
I love Hoka shoes and these boots are so comfy. Only problem I have with them is the top eyelets are hard for me to lace.

Best Shoe EVER!
I have heel spurs. My doctor has recommended for the time being to hold off on surgery to remove, as he said it will be a painful and extensive recovery. Ouch! So I have to deal with them and with the wrong shoes, it was becoming increasingly difficult to do so and becoming more and more painful. I had to give up my trail walks, which literally broke my heart & spirit. I bought countless types and brands of shoes, tried every insert out there, all to no avail. Then someone online recommended the HOKA brand to me. I chose this shoe to see if I could back out on the trails with them. As soon as I put them on, I knew they were different! And they were! ZERO pain when walking! ZERO pain after walking, as was usually the case. ZERO pain the next day! I am BEYOND thrilled!! Thank you so very much for creating such a wonderful brand. Now to pick out my next pair... :)

I would buy this product again, and recommend it to a friend
I bought these boots, because they were recommended by the American Podiatric Medical Association. I love to hike with my husband and our dog, but I have foot problems that limit my hiking trips. Well, my Hoka Challenger Mid Gore-Tex boots have changed that! They're super supportive and comfy, and they have all the qualities needed in a good hiking boot - they're waterproof, warm, and able to tackle a variety of terrains. They also look good. Who'd have thought a shoe designed to support your feet could also look stylish and youthful - not like old school orthopedic shoes/boots. I love 'em! If you need a great pair of hiking boots - get a pair of these Hoka's!!

Amazing comfort, brutal lacing system
First the good: so comfortable right out of the box. Well-cushioned. Warm and waterproof. But the lacing system! I guess I have forever taken lacing systems for granted since they are a forgettable but necessary part of most any shoe. Not this one. First to get the shoe on you have to loosen up each lace individually to get your foot in. Then to tighten you need to retrace your steps and tighten each loop individually. Then you need to position the flat lace at the right angle to engage the top two loops. I'm imagining this design was to keep the laces from loosening during wear, but trust me, these suckers aren't loosening without some serious effort on your part. I have a pair of Hoka running shoes that lace up with eases, so I'm not sure what the philosophy was here, but they're lucky this boot is so comfortable or I'd never put up with the hassle of getting them on and off.

I was impressed!
I love the ankle support and how my feet didn't slide into the end of the shoe. Great stability! The only thing I wished for was a more plush insole and a little more narrow. I love Hokas and have many people buying them due to their issues with their feet.

Feels a little larger than my running shoe 10s.
I feel like they are too long for 10s. I did however get the wides. Not sure if this is what the difference is. I have worn them 4 times. Maybe Ill wear thicker socks? Id trade em, but already traded a pair of trail Zinals for these. Out of the two these feel the best on the back of your knees. Hokas seem to make my legs feel hyper-exstending backwards. Not sure if this will help anyone. Gotta try them first to see.

i will definitely buy HOOKA One One shoes again.
With my newest shoe/boot purchase, I did have a short 'break in' period, but I love the boots and how they fit now.

I wear these every day at work and they are amazing
It took a few days to wear in but now they are so comfy and walking all day on cement is so much better because of them. I have narrow feet and flat arches and these shoes are amazing.
