Hoka One One Men's Kaha 3 GTX medelhöga vandringsskor

I bought these boots from REI because the sales rep said they were the best of the best. Now that I've had them for five months, I know that I wasted $200. They lost their waterproofing about a week after getting them. There is a hole at the bottom of the laces through the boot. The tread is nearly gone. I walk for a living, easily 2 miles a day, five to six days a week. Save your money. I would never buy another pair of Hokas.

I would give these boots a 5star rating but unfortunately after owning them for about a year and using them on 3 different hikes in Adirondacks. Intermittent use while walking dog. The sole is separating from the actual boot. This is very very disappointing considering the $200+ price tag on these. If you beat up your shoes etc, dont expect these to last longer than a year.

Fit? Awesome. Traction? Great. Comfort? Excellent. Support? Very good. Waterproof? Not at all. Despite several NikWax applications, prior to use, these boots proved to be a huge disappointment. Simply walking through a heave dew left my feet swimming. The sock above the boot is dry, but everything in the boot is soaked. I love the Hoka brand and really wanted this boot to work. This is a show stopper for me.

These are super comfy, but they were out of the dirt-colored version so I had to get white. Hey, HOKA, why on our green and brown earth would anyone make a white-colored hiking boot? It makes no sense whatsoever, and many of us ladies like our dirt trails. I suppose someone might be wearing a hiking boot doing something other than hiking, I guess. But hey, another marketing idea for ya: "High top walking boots," and make the "hiking boots" dark colors, please. Otherwise thumbs up!

Used the first time for long class 3-4 ridge climb with long hiking decent and uphills and it worked perfectly.
