Bought these for my son who overpronates/has flat feet. He usually wears hoka gaviotas or brooks. He said these shoes are the most comfortable, but likes the colors/style of the brooks better. Comfort won out over style this time. We had a terrible experience ordering and returning wrong size with the hoka manufacturer website. After 4 weeks, I finally got my money back and got the shoes from Zappos within 2 days. I won’t make the mistake of ordering from the manufacturer again.

I have wide feet and plantar fasciitis - the gaviota 2 were perfect, my podiatrist loved these shoes for me and so did my feet. I will be sending the gaviota 3 back because they are too narrow compared to the old version. This is disappointing, I hope the next gaviotas are built similar to gaviota 2.

I have had Gaviota 1, 2 and now 3 and it seems to me the best model so far, not only in the aesthetic part but also the comfort and sensation part

The Gaviota I thought was great but the new Gaviota 3 is awesome. I only wear Hoka shoes. I love the leather Gaviota in brown and hope soon you make one in black leather. I am a professor at a college and stand all day and the leather Gaviota looks enough like dress shoes and I wear them all day teaching.

My husband suffers from bilateral heel spurs and problems with the metatarsals in feet. He likes the stability these shoes off for daily walking and running. He says these shoes reduce the pain in his feet.

Hooka's shoes are too narrow. They do not provide the option for anything larger than a D width and their D is tight.
I'd also recommend:

I work in an office all day in these shoes and they are great on my feet. Great for walking and running also.

Excellent arch support and shock absorption. I usually wear a 10.5 but because of the narrow toe box got an 11.

I'm a big Hoka Hoka One fan my goal is to be injury free. Use the Carbon for road races n normally a Biondi 7 for training. Got the Gaviota to see if it improve my workouts. Stable but cushioned - my road runs are great with them.

Great concept with poor execution. These shoes have a nice crash pad and inner cushioning however they wear down waaay to quickly for the price tag. After 200 miles of walking they are very worn on the bottom. They also need to be laced pretty tightly to provide adequate support and stability. Shoe laces are too long. Lacing structure also makes for a real headache when trying to get each area to desired tightness. Needs more cushioning on inner heal. With certain improvement these shoes can be the best on the market.

The toe box tore in about 100 days. For such expensive shoes it seems like they were made to not last. The test happened along the stylized horizontal lines in the toe box. makes you wonder why they’re there.

I have skew or serpentine feet with several hammer toes, and these were the best fit so far. These shoes also took the pain from my knees and hips unlike the Bondi. These are better than the bondi for relief but are a bit stiff/very supportive

Best shoes I've owned so far. So comfortable and they lasted a really long time. Wish they kept making this color pattern for the 4's.

Another great shoe from Hoka. These are very soft and for me are great when I’m standing on my feet in my shop all day. I don’t wear them for walking but I’m sure they would be just as good. I just prefer firmer shoes when walking and ones with more durable soles.
