The white grid on the bottom of the shoe has a coating which starts shredding after a few wears. Unattractive and off putting. Have never had a HOKA or Saconey do this. Have returned two pairs of them now, so it is not a fluke but a design/manufacturing flaw.

I just got these shoes in today, right before I was heading into my 8 hour shift as a pharmacy technician. I am hour 2 in and these shoes feel like I'm walking on cushiony clouds. My first Hoka's were the Clifton's and those took a couple of days for me to break them in. These Kawana 2's are a game changer. I also had gotten the New Balance+Figs 327 shoes recently and they're lame compared to these ones. I feel like I just want to walk forever.

I was having lots of problems with my foot and a friend recommended these sneakers. They are the best and I have numerous pairs. I just wish Kawana women's came in more colors.

I ordered a size up (8). These shoes are comfortable. My feet do not hurt after being on them all day. I would like a lighter shoes. These are a little heavy.

I wear these mostly to run errands and occasionally to the gym. They're so comfortable and attractive. I am an 8.5 and always size down to 8 with Hoka and they fit perfectly.

I bought my first pair of HOKA's almost 3 years ago and I've just bought 2 more pair. Love them so much and they last

This shoe is great!!! I love the sandstone color! Extremely comfortable sole and base of shoe. Great traction. I wish the back of the shoe was shaped to the heel more but they are easy to take on and off. Even with the correct size, it does feel like your foot may come out but it will stay in place.

I loved my Kawana, this Kawana 2, not so much! I hate the new lacing, my left shoe string will not stay tied, very annoying. They are comfortable but I wish I'd ordered my old style. This style doesn't make my foot look so long as the original, which is a good thing I guess!

This is the most comfortable Hoka shoe I have for walking my dog twice a day. Or for all-day wearing. That's saying a lot since I have 7 other pairs of various colors that I wear. Hokas are true to size; this style is no exception.

I have sore feet all the time, probably plantar fasciitis but undiagnosed & I've worn these for 2 days & my feet feel amazing! Better than any other brand I've had before, ASICS, Nike, Columbia, Under armor, and even brooks! None hold a candle to these! I also have wide feet and they feel great!

I bought these shoes before reading the reviews. My foot has zero stability. It moves sideways because it's almost like the center of the sole isn't aligned. They're going back.

Don't hesitate. These are the best shoes I have ever purchased. I use them for training in the gym and walking. They are perfect for the support that I need as I start to realize aging is a real thing. My knees are thankful and so are my feet. Very true to size!

I worked in a hospital kitchen. Realized that I am doing more standing in place. A lot of the nurses and a couple of Doctor's wear the Hoka brand and I thought I would try a pair. I didn't want anything as colorful as the ones they were wearing. When I saw the Kawanas in all black I was sold. My feet haven't felt this good in awhile. True to size. Thought I would have to go up but was actually a size smaller. Had to exchange, even that was quick. Getting another pair for fun !!

I have been a fan of the Cliftons for years but now that I have tried the Kawana2 I think I love the fit even better. I do cross training 4-5x a week and think the Cliftons were maybe a little too cushiony after all. These are awesome

Bought these because of plantar fasciitis pain, and I couldn't be happier. Within a week I had no pain whatsoever. They are stylish and lightweight, perfect for day to day activities.

I purchased a woman's size 7, which is my typical size, but had to return as the part of the shoe around the ball of the foot was way too big. But the 6 1/2 was great. I used it this year to do a turkey trot, and my feet were very happy

Before heading on a trip to Vegas, my dad and I got shoes in the Kawana 2 style. We ended up walking over 22 miles over three and a half days while on vacation in Las Vegas. I cannot recommend these shoes enough. As someone who ALWAYS has sore feet/ankles after walking any distance more than 2 miles, these were AMAZING. No arch pain, no ankle pain, no shin splints, no problems at all for myself of my dad the entire trip & after we got home. I went with my usual size of a women's size 9 and found them to be a perfect fit. I plan on purchasing in another color!
