HOKA

Challenger ATR 7 GTX Running Shoe - Women's

My Hoka Shoes

They are the most comfortable of all my walking shoes. Thank you

Love the colors...but these kill my foot and knees

This was my third pair of Hokas...Clifton's, Biondis and now the Challenger. I couldn't wait for them to come in....then they did, and I put them on...and almost immediately something in my knees felt funny. So I took them off and waited for the lock laces and it wasn't so bad...thinking they were maybe too tight and using the wrong socks. They feel really RIGID. Yesterday, I took the longest walk and I could not wait to get home, and I wanted to chop my left foot off because it hurt so bad. This morning, I put my Biondis on and all is well again...wow. Too late to return and it really sucks because I love the new color combo, but I just can't wear these any more.

Love these shoes!

Only shoes I buy for all my endurance events and every day for that matter! Worth the money - my feet always thank me! :)

Great shoes

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Size Bought:

9.5

These fit a bit smaller than my Clifton’s — I had to go up a half size. Overall, they’re great so far. I walked in dewy grass with them for 5 miles and my feet stayed dry. I bought them for a PNW trip I’m going on this fall and feel confident they’ll keep me dry then too.

defective..?

There is no way these shoes are Gore Tex, my feet were soaked, so disappointed in the quality for the cost, Hoka's arent what they used to be.

Good choice

Good sneakers. Good for walking. I wear 9 and ordered 9. They feel a bit too big. Have used them twice and walked total of 6 miles.

Most comfortable sneakers I've ever worn

I bought these because I loved the color, when I put them on, I was skeptical, but when I took them out for a walk, I was very impressed with the soft comfort, like walking on pillows and I can feel the support and stability! I'd recommend these and will be ordering a couple others styles that are meant for just walking! I waited a year to purchase, as I just loved the color I'd chosen, I wish I'd gotten them sooner☺️

I love these shoes

I use the Challenger 7 GTX for all my hikes. Did two 13 mile plus hikes in them and they are great. I wish they'd bring back more colors. I may try the Stinson, but I like the waterproof feature on the Challenger I recommend them to my girlfriends

Hurt Your Feet

Like they are rugged & waterproof; but the worst foot feeling to wear during the rainy season. Feet feel miserable. My other Hoka are better.

Proud hoka owner

Since my doctor told me I had plantar fasciitis I searched for a shoe that would give me pain relief from my feet and knees. I tried hoka and have been a proud wearer every since. The soles of these shoes are like little clouds from heaven. Hoka is now my go-to shoe.
