Hoka One One W Gaviota 6 Black/White - 38

My husband normally wears a regular athletic shoe with a flat sole, I purchased this Hoka for him and wasn't sure if he would like it. On the first wearing he had a little issue getting used to the larger sole, but now I see him choosing them every time he goes out.

Love this shoe. Nice room in the toe box. Very comfortable with great support. I tend to pronate on my right. This counters that nicely. I use this for long brisk walks of 4-5 mile duration on asphalt, hard gravel roads and compacted dirt roads. This works perfectly for me.

They aren't the most stylish shoes, but they are VERY comfortable. Recommended by my podiatrist and they perform as hoped.

Size ran true - I wear a 13 in Reebok, Keen, Kuru, and Skecher and these Hoka shoes were no different. I did notice the insole outer edges had a sharpness to them...enough that it seem to cut into my arch and the outer edge of my foot. I opted to remove the insole and replace with a Dr Scholl gel and couldn't be happier. Truly one of the lightest and most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I'm only 10 miles into them but feel they will be my go-to shoe for some time.

Size is accurate. The shoe is very comfortable. It has the stability of the Arahi and the extra adding I need.
