Skyward Laceless Recovery Sneaker

Like another poster - I had to size up. I have two total knees - 12 surgeries prior to those - also 5 different foot surgeries. I work out and speed walk at least 2-3 miles per day. THESE WORK and I am totally pain free at the end of the day. If anyone would have suggested that achievement - I would have laughed. Had to work on balance a bit due to the cushioning. SO WORTH IT TO BE PAIN FREE. Definitely try a few sizes. Am usually a 9-9.5 - the 10s hit the sweet spot for me. Nice enough to wear anywhere.

I own more Hokas than I can count. Just received the Skyward Laceless, and I love them! I was hesitant to buy my size 8 because the comments, but they fit true to size. I have a wider foot and the toe bed is perfect! I wish they came in more colors. I will say that the presentation of the shoes i received is disappointing. Shoe box is stained, there are no shoe inserts or tissue paper covering the shoes. That's on Nordstrom, not Hoka. D o better Nordstrom! I expect better from you!

Perfect size to length. EXTREMELY tight though. I got these for work as a healthcare employee due to the amount of cushion & they were light, comfortable GREAT support until 15 mins in my 12hr shift i felt tingling sensation on my feet. By 30 mins in i couldn’t feel my feet. It cut my circulation causing my feet to be numb. Im so sad because everything else was perfect! You must have super skinny feet to fit into these

I hate to say it - but these are WAY too tight! Worst pair of HOKA's I've owned (I have 6 in my closet). They actually made my feet feel a bit numb. I bought them for Mexico and after walking through airports, wearing them on the plane (which I had to take in flight) and walking around the resort, I came back after 10 days of vacation and donated them to GoodWill. I won't buy again. Extremely disappointed.

I have several pair of hokas, Bondi 9 which I always buy the D width for a wider toe box. The Skyward caused my calves and knees to hurt. The cushion was too soft and the toe box too narrow. I purchased the 8B and walked around the house and on the treadmill. My toes were burning and knew I had to return the very next day. A larger size would have been too big for my heel. I really wanted a nice slip in sneaker but have to stick with comfort.

These recovery Hokas are a different fit. I ordered a size 11, returned them for a size 12.This is my sixth pair of Hokas.

I returned them

I love these Hokas. I bought them for traveling and a lot of walking. I bought a 6.5 my regular size and they are very comfortable for hours on end.

I should have paid attention to the other reviews before ordering. This is a lovely shoe and would be comfortable except it’s very tight for a medium width. Multiple reviews addressed this same issue. Unfortunately the shoe is not made in a wide width.

I’m known for having the coolest shoes…and too many of them. These HOKAs have completely changed that because I barely wear anything else anymore. They’re so comfortable that I can’t bring myself to wear anything else. They’re also have some height to them, which I love since platform soles are my “go to” shoe style. I have a bum knee needing surgery and spondylolisthesus in my lower back but I can walk at least 10 miles at a time in these. Usually my knee gets uncomfortable and I need to stop to stretch out my back frequently after the first few miles. I already bought a backup black pair because I’m afraid they’ll be discontinued by the time they need replacement. Will also be getting the white so I’ll be prepared for next summer ! Style-wise, they sort of remind me of a couple of different pairs of black Yohji Yamamoto shoes I’ve had over the years but the HOKAs are far more comfortable for very long walks. My usual sneaker size is 8.5 or 9 depending on brand. I need the 9 for this style.

My first pair of Hoka footwear, and I love them. Absolutetly worth every penny. Highly recommend buying yours before they sell out.

I owned some Hoka shoes, and love them, but those were too tight around my ankles. I have to return them.
