Men's | HOKA Gaviota 5: All Reviews

I bought the Graviota 5 shoe 3 months ago so that I could walk 20-30000 steps per day while in Spain and have good arch support. The shoe feels very comfortable until you start to walk a lot. The toe box of the shoe is so wide that you find yourself stumbling over the shoe as you walk. Quite awkward at times. The sizing is also about a half an inch off.

This is my 3rd pair of Hokas. Expensive but worth it. I don’t run I walk—a lot. Just like my previous Hokas they’re stable with a wide sole and well padded. There were cheaper options but this one just felt best for me.

These shoes are a lifesaver for my husband who has severe neuropathy and needs stability in his shoes We have been looking for shoes for him for several years and these shoes had everything he needed

Very comfortable for everyday life. Ordered via local store and arrived in a timely basis. Great purchase.

Got into serious running last July in preparation for my first 1/2 Marathon in October and all tolled ran 424 miles in 2023. To date I've run 288 miles on my first pair of Gaviota 5's and they have been by far the BEST pair of running shoes I've ever owned! They are beyond comfortable and provide the most stability I've ever had with Nike Asics and Brooks....combined! Shopping for my next pair today!

The shoes are not as comfortable as the other Hoka shoes I have purchased. Seem more stiff and heavy

3rd pair of the Gaviota and love them! Great fit and stability!

My orthopedist recommended Fleet Feet as a great source to help with planar fanciatis. The team at Fleet Feet spent some time fitting me for insoles followed by trying several pair of shoes. Now Fleet Feet will be my only source for shoes!!!! Thanks to the two ladies that were at the store that night

These are THE BEST shoes I have ever worn. They are the most comfortable and fit like a glove! Well worth the price. Don’t sleep on these people!!!

I really liked the Haviota 4. I am a Tennis Coacb on my feet all day everyday. I was exvited to try the new version. I was told they more more cusion. Not so. My feet and ankles knees have hurt from day 1. I like the wider tie box but thats it.

The hookah give incredible support. My knees were in pain until I started wearing them now I am walking with no pain.

So comfortable. So so so very comfortable. Next pair coming soon.

Very similar to Bondi 8.Bondi 8 upper is somewhat softer.

These hurt my feet compared to Asics. Didnt work for me

The toe box is entirely too big. I put these on and started laughing when I saw them in the mirror. There is no way I would wear them in public. I have been very happy with my Gaviota 4 and was hoping to purchase again but in an attempt to improve an outstanding product Hoka failed miserably.

Very good shoe but a little soft so I feel my pressure in the mid sole a to much not when I first put them on but after an hour of wearing them.

Amazing so comfy and lightweight. Perfect for running the soles aren’t as durable as my Arahi 6s but they make up for it in how they feel!

I bought a pair of these yesterday and I am a loyal Hoka fan. These shoes feel great on my feet--these are no exception. I read the review for the Graviota 5 which all state that these shoes are plush. They are not plush! These shoes are stiff/responsive! I am not sorry I bought them they feel good on my feet but they are not as soft as even the Bondi 8. I will keep these and wear them until they no longer feel good before buying another pair of Hoka.
