I was a hit-and-run car accident 6 years ago and they wanted to amputate my left foot. I've had nine surgeries to save my foot and somebody turned me on to hocus 4 years ago and I've been wearing the Bondi 8. I've had about eight pairs of them in 6 years because I wear them down on the left side where my foot is crooked. I was looking at getting a more cushiony shoe cuz I can't be barefoot on hard floors because of bones in my foot that have no more padding. I talked to the most amazing Hoka representative through their chat and told her everything that I needed what I was looking for in a shoe and she put me on to these. I got them in the mail yesterday and I haven't taken them off. My Hoka Bondi eights were questioning this is a whole new level.

When I have the bond eyes on one foot and the these new ones on the bad foot world of difference! It feels like double the padding. I've been reading everybody's reviews about the tow being wide and that's true it doesn't bother me as much as it might other people but they're definitely is a lot of room in the front of the runner. But if you're looking for stability and incredible cushioning and comfort I highly recommend this shoe!

I searched so long to find a supportive shoe that helped with my problem feet and finally found it in the Gaviota 5! I have both plantars faciitis and peripheral neuropathy. Not an easy combo. The wide toe box and breathable upper was the best I found for my neuropathy. The amazing support around, and under, the heel has felt like near a miracle cure for my plantars faciitis. I've only been wearing them 3 weeks but, so far, I'm beyond happy with these shoes. I tried well over a dozen pair of shoes before finding these gems. Tbh, I never dreamed I'd spend this much but I don't regret a single penny of it.I bought the real teal color and they're very pretty. Not as teal as I thought they'd be (they're more blue) but that probably makes them a little more versatile.

The toe box is wide - a little shocking when you first put it on but they're so comfortable when you get used to it. I didn't know what it felt like to not have my toes all cramped in a shoe! My foot is medium width, borderline wide, but I've never bought a wide width shoe. This shoe may not fit as well on someone with a narrow foot.Finally, I'm not a runner, just someone with problem feet, so I can't speak to how they perform athletically. They are excellent for walking and everyday use though.

I got the evening sky/coral color in 8 wide and these babies are my absolute favorite pair of shoes I've ever put on my feet. I have two pair of Bondi 8, two speed gates (I wish any of the goretex came in wide but they don't) and a pair of Clifton's in wide. I haven't tried the Bondi 8 in wide yet but will at some point. These shoes are so comfortable, roomie and just give my feet a nice hug. Everything is cushioned where it needs to be since these are plush. I wore them for 8 hours today walking on and off most of the day and for the first time in decades my feet aren't sore anywhere.I have inherited bunions on both feet from my grandma and boy oh boy my right foot usually always aches because of the ol bunion. I refuse to get surgery simply because it's my feet ... MoreI got the evening sky/coral color in 8 wide and these babies are my absolute favorite pair of shoes I've ever put on my feet.

I'm so impressed with how durable and comfortable they are. I love the colors and I just really appreciate Hoka shoes. I will definitely buy more in different colors.I walked on concrete, wood surface, gravel and dirt today with some surfaces wet. They don't slip at all. Sometimes even with bunions wide shoes are too wide for me, these aren't. They are just perfect for my issues. Hope this helps.

I bought Gaviotas years ago after being introduced to them in a shoe store. After ten years of walks and gym workouts, they are still usable except for the vinyl side vents that are peeling off. Gluing them did not work. Last year I started a new hotel job where I am on my feet, walking up and down stairs constantly. My 60+ year old knees make that difficult. So after a painful trial period of trying other brands, I ordered Gaviotas again and was very pleasantly surprised! I have weird feet that are narrow in the heel and wide across the toes. The Gaviota wide toe box is why I went with them in the first place. I was delighted to find that the new model has an even wider toe box than before. So no more bunions and cramping from squashed toes! Love the mesh fabric ... MoreI bought Gaviotas years ago after being introduced to them in a shoe store.

So no more bunions and cramping from squashed toes! Love the mesh fabric which lets air circulate around my feet (never cold even in winter). Love the Blue/Evening Sky, it matches my uniform and adds a pop of color -- not too boringly navy blue. I have tried all kinds/brands, and they are the ONLY shoes in 50+ years of working and playing that I can wear without killing my feet. I did add some arthritis innersoles that add to cushioning and stability and make the foot bed more shallow in the heel so the sides do not irritate my ankles. My only negative is that the bottoms were slippery on smooth, wet surfaces, but this has gradually decreased over time. I highly recommend them!
Since I've had both my knees replaced, I basically use my shoes for mostly for walking and in the gym. Sometimes I walk 3-5 miles daily and pride myself in having my shoes to compliment my outfit. I have been a long time fan of Hokas and have introduced them to many of my friends. I have purchased well over 15 different pairs for myself, both women and men versions. I started out with the Bondi and then I later discovered the Arahi, the Clifton's and really fell in love with Gaviotas because they seem to work best for me with both of my total knee replacements and flat feet. During my visit to Hawaii, my Hopara quickly became my preferred shoe of choice for all the hikes and extensive walking.

They were fantastic especially during my water aerobics, our hikes and my everyday walking during our trip to Hawaii. However, after being disappointed after my last Bondi purchase, I just purchased the Gaviota 5 which I will have to return also because the new makeovers does not feel the same either. The toe box is much too wide and the arch area is cut weird and it hurts. The new style not only is big in the toe box but it makes your foot look so much bigger than they really are. I am so disappointed and I have to return this one too as I did with that new Bondi. Please bring the old style back. I feel they were so much better and more comfortable. I'm a bit afraid to order another pair for fear it will not fit and I will have too return it too.
You have remade this shoe since my last pair. I bought two pairs of the Gaviota 4 and love them. I was very disappointed to learn you had completely remade the shoe when I tried to order more. I normally wear a wide, but because of all of the comments, I decided to get a "B" with, it's a good thing I did because I could never have worn these in a wide. I love the extra cushion in the footbed and around the heel but I hate the way they look on my feet. Though I normally have to buy a wide shoe, I have a narrow heel, these have enough padding in the heel they don't slip when I'm walking up a hill or stairs. The left shoe has a pucker in the toe for some reason, I'm thinking the material wasn't put on quite right because the right shoe does not do that and maybe I ... MoreYou have remade this shoe since my last pair.

The left shoe has a pucker in the toe for some reason, I'm thinking the material wasn't put on quite right because the right shoe does not do that and maybe I should have gone down a half size with this particular shoe because my big toes seem to press against the side of the shoe after I've been wearing them for a while. I really don't understand why you removed the reflective emblem from the back of the show. Reflective shoes are very nice when walking in the dark.
As a runner who requires stability shoes due to overpronation (and who places a lot of pressure on my left heel), I was so excited about the Gaviotas -- and they did not disappoint! Incredibly happy with these. I had an initial assessment with Feet Fleet prior to purchasing here. I have small Size 6 feet, low-ish arches that overpronate, a narrow heel, and a wide foot due to mild-moderate bunions. I sized up to the recommended 6.5 to accommodate swelling. This shoes hit all the marks and my main concern was the width, which ultimately is PERFECT. Zero pressure or stress, room to spread my toes, and the stability frame really does its job. I've noticed a big difference in ankle and knee stress due to the form and cushioning on this model.To note: People complain ... MoreAs a runner who requires stability shoes due to overpronation (and who places a lot of pressure on my left heel), I was so excited about the Gaviotas -- and they did not disappoint!

I think they're cute and know that a narrower foot box would never work for me, especially when I look at my husband's Rincon 3s. All Hokas are a little goofy looking by nature of being a sport shoe. They fulfill my walking and running needs, but are certainly not a fashion piece and should not be critiqued as such. I want them to last the km, so form takes precedence. Despite this, aesthetically, I love them!
This new version of the Gaviota is awful. I had the previous version and loved the support and fit, however, the material ripped (in under a year) and I needed a replacement. By this time, the version of the Gaviota I had was no longer available and I had to choose the new version. The new Gaviota looks very similar to the Bondi. I love the look of the Bondi but it did not support my feet properly. It seems like they took the Bondi and changed the name to Gaviota without adding the support elements needed. The Gaviota is no longer supportive, as it once was, and doesn't have the firm piece of materiel on the inside of the arch (to prevent collapse) as the previous version had. I now have a collapsed arch after wearing these shoes daily for the last two months. I am ... MoreThis new version of the Gaviota is awful.

Going through the warranty return was a huge hassle, and customer service was terrible, but I am going to try to get some help. BEWARE if you liked the previous Gaviota version!
I bought these shoes (along with 3 other shoes) in a size 9.5 The frame of the shoe dug into the arch of my foot. It was not as bad as the other shoes from Hoka I tried. I typically wear an 8.5 regular, these fit great and they gave my toes the wiggle room they needed. I liked these shoes despite the painful arch part. The stability is great I felt that my foot was supported and had great grip on the floor, However, the frame of the shoe was digging into my arch was the worst. It was suggested that I try them for a bit of walk around in the house maybe my feet just need to get used to it. After about 3 hours of wearing them, all I did was walk around the living room and then tried to cook dinner.

After about 3 hours of wearing them, all I did was walk around the living room and then tried to cook dinner. In those 3 hours, my foot at this arch point hurt so much that the pain started going up my leg to my Achilles and I could barely stand. I took the shoe off and had a bruise forming where the frame was pushing on my arch. It took 2 days for my foot to stop hurting from that. I decided to find a store that sold Hoka brand and try them in-store to see if the other sizes or regular/wide would be better. I tried 9 pairs of shoes from this brand and they all did the same thing. I started to think I was going crazy and maybe my feet were just weird or the pain of one shoe was making it feel like the other shoe was hurting as well. I had my mother and friend try the shoes as well and they had the same complaint that it dug into their arch. I recommend if you want to buy this brand that you find a store and try it on and save yourself the hassle of paying hundreds+ of dollars and having to return it. Like I did and play a game of ordering more and returning them. I would not recommend this shoe if you have not tried this brand before. After trying to see if this was just a few people's issues I have found multiple complaints and Readit threads about this issue.
I was hopeful this style of Hoka would work for me due to wanting a shoe that might be a bit more “stable”. I have a highish arch and it collapses. I run 2-3 miles almost everyday. I’ve loved Hokas and have owned several pairs- most recently the Bondi 8 which Id been running in for over a year. I took the Hoka online shoe finder quiz, answered all the same questions I usually do, and this time they matched me with the Gaviota 5’s (previously Bondi 8’s which were fine).*Side note- I do feel like the “Shoe Finder” suggestions on the Hoka website results change/vary on whatever new trendy shoe they’ve just released vs what you actually need. Because I just did it again, with the same answers, and now my shoe result is completely different but… 🤷‍♀️Anyway, this is ... MoreI was hopeful this style of Hoka would work for me due to wanting a shoe that might be a bit more “stable”.

They’re stable for sure. But the bottom of the shoe is so stiff and firm, that when I hit the ground, I feel what can only be described as needles shooting up the backs of my calves. It was so painful to run, that I had to bite the bullet and just walk the long trek back to avoid any further pain or injury. *I also want to note the trail I was on featured all different types of ground (asphalt, concrete sidewalks, gravel, dirt trails, roads, etc). And regardless of what I was running on, the feeling was the same.I think this style might be great for walking, or maybe a job where you’re on your feet all day like a nurse/etc. But for running? Not for me. I’m so, so disappointed. :(
