Hoka
4.2
(220)
"I got a pair of Hokas on sale. Amazing customer service."
"I snagged a pair and omg, so comfy!!"
"I bought my first pair the Bondi 8 on sale before the 9s came out and I love them. I broke my 5th metacarpal in October and they have been very supportive and comfortable to wear all day."
"I got the Bondi 9 in x wide and love them. I got my first pair 9 W, they run narrow. The Bondis have a ton of cushion"
"I like the all leather water resistant upper of the Bondi SR for daily wear. I feel like my heel is slightly higher in the Bondi SR. I think the Bondi SR will last longer in daily wear than the Gaviota due to the fact it is designed for professional use."
"Bondi SR 1000%"
"I work in a restaurant walking/standing for 9-13 hour shifts. Bondi has been very good to me"
"I have both the Gaviota 5 and the Bondi SR and I absolutely LOVE them. Both of these styles are supposed to have extra support to keep your foot from rolling off to the side."
"Not with my Hoka's but the Clifton LS in particular is so insanely comfortable! And not as narrow as many Hoka models are."
"Due to pain, I've been wearing Bondi SR at work and Bondi 8 for day to day for over a year. For me personally, they have been life changing."

Brooks
4.0
(6)
"Both have a lot of cushioning to help absorb impact."
"Wore my Brooks at our recent DL trip (20,000+ steps a day) and had zero issues."
"I absolutely love my Brooks. Just got back yesterday and had no foot pain outside your average ache."
"Great for minimal cushioning and fits differently for everyone."
"I brought them back and got my normal running shoes...Brooks Adrenalines...go with what feels good."
"I can't wear Brooks, they kill my feet."
#3
Saucony
3.8
(5)
"Saucony works best for my feet and gait."
"Saucony racers are close to top tier."
"My Bondi 7s are now my everyday whatever shoes."
"I had two pairs of Saucony Endorphin Speed, which has a nylon plate and is not hugely cushioned."
"I hated them and they gave me calf pain, so I returned them."
#4
ASICS
4.5
(4)
"I tried a pair of Asics before leaving and loved them too. They were like walking on a cloud."
"Asics racers are also top tier for speed."
"Roughly the same firmness as Bondi, but much lighter and bouncier."
"Squishier and more cushioned, with a similar weight."
#5
Altra
4.0
(3)
"They’re even more comfy than my Hokas."
"My son is an Ironman and wears Altras for all of his competitions. I think Altras are made for feet."
"I ended up hating them, but I was glad to give them a shot."

Hoka Gaviota 5
5.0
(1)
"The Hoka Gaviota's are the best for people with extremely flat feet. I was born with flatfeet and I mean flat. No arch what so ever. The Gaviopta 5's are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had."
