Customer Reviews Hoka Vanquish 3

Other than being narrow in the toe, I absolutely LOVED these shoes and would buy nothing else if Hoka would keep these available, especially with more forefoot width. Please bring these back. I can happily run a trail half-marathon in these but do get toe blisters from the narrowness. Now I am pretty much stuck without a replacement shoe and the other Hokas I have tried have not been good for me.

I love this shoe. It fits me sooo perfectly and has lots of cushion which is easy my knees and hips. I work out with them, run with them, etc. Great multi-purpose shoe. I wish Hoka would restock these. They did wear out on my quick though.

I've had 10+ Hokas and this was hands down my favorite style/comfort combo. I run stadium steps 3 days a week and the cushioning in these shoes plus the support is just awesome. My heart stopped when I saw these on website again then when I saw it was only in two small sizes...it was such a tease. Please bring back this shoe in the neon and wild dove color. PLEASE!!!!

Perfect shoes ,light weight ,Comfortable and Good for long Run i use many model of Hoka i like this model

Comfort, cushion, support, style are all off the charts!

I honestly have never heard of this sneaker before. I looked up most comfortable running shoe and found this brand. I took a chance with their return policy and was glad I did. I'm not a runner but Work all day on concrete floors and needed something to cushion my feet . These worked out perfect no more sore back and legs too

I switched to the Vanquish after Hoka continued to change the Clifton's to firmer narrower and maybe more responsive to some runners. The Vanquish is No Clifton 1,2 or 3 but it's got more cushion and plushness than other Hoka's I've tried. I'm bummed why have a big Yuge sole on the Clifton when it's got moderate cushion! I'm bummed had to switch from Clifton's to the Vanquish... Looks like the Vanquish may go away or become firmer.

These shoes are a 'blessing to my feet'... comfortable; affordable and great looking! I am convinced that HOKA is an absolute necessity for 'aging' runners who care for comfort in their activity... I will now, only buy HOKAs!!!

Have to get 1 size bigger. From my own experience, not true to size.

My previous three pairs of Hokas were Clifton 2 because I love the soft comfortable ride and they have worked wonders with my plantar fasciitis/knees. I wanted to branch out a little this time I went with the vanquish. I have to admit I am very pleased with the look and the feel. I think they have more of a style factor to them than the Cliftons and I really like the color that I chose(bluegold). Looks great in person. They are comfy and soft but I wouldn't say plush. Cliftons do seem softer more "cloud-like" when walking but at the end of a long day ( I am on my feet most of day at work), my feet feel great in the vanquish. I am not a runner so I can't speak to that aspect. Overall pleased with my buy as I feel it is a very close second to my cliftons.

Great running shoes, use them 8miles, 4x a week plus walk my dog 7 days at week 3miles, hope they last they feel great, not much on loud colors I'm 71yrs.young thanks.

Definitely, lives up to the HOKA reputation. No pain, faster times, longer distances.

Comfortable, sturdy but light. Nice fit.

Excellent

this shoe had little break-in time, is comfortable, great cushioning and support. Also, I like the ventilation. Fit is true to size

I walk a lot working various events. These shoes give me the comfort that I have been looking for. My feet are rarely tired now since changing to these shoes

I had a total knee replacement 8 months ago and I have been in pain and inflamed since the day of the surgery. I have tried PT, Compression socks, Ice, elevation and anti-inflammatory medication. Nothing helped 100% after going back to work and being in my feet all day. I was finally told to try these shoes about 2 weeks ago, and I was hesitant being that it is just a shoe. I was amazed at the way these shoes have made me feel. I wear them all day long and my swelling has gone down considerably. I am in about 85-90% less pain at the end of my day. I will continue to buy these shoes and have told anyone who knows my situation, how amazing they are.

I purchased this shoe for my husband's and I first wedding anniversary , he absolutely loves this shoe. Noticed the difference automatically in his posture, knees and lower back. He has actually started back run/walking again. I would definitely recommend this shoe

I bought a pair of HOKA running shoes because I started to develop planters fasciitis. It only took a couple weeks and my feet feel so much better. Great shoes for work and running.
