Reviews & Ratings for Hoka Rincon Road Running Shoes - Men's — 2 reviews — Page 1

Absolutely love the Hoka One One Rincon- so much so that I just ordered another pair. They fit true to size for me in a size 12. Very comfortable upper- no irritation after two 11 mile runs straight out of the box. Lightweight and breathable. I have paid much more for a less comfortable running shoe. The word I come up while running in the Rincon is smooth. Not sure on the durability- but not too concerned given the great pricing and another pair on the way for rotation. I replaced the shoe laces with Nathan no tie laces as I always do because they work well for me. The laces supplied are adequate and stretchy but not to my liking. Overall a great purchase with free and fast shipping. Thank you Hoka and Thank You Campsaver.

After talking with Hoka directly and watching a number of reviews on YouTube, I had a pretty good idea of what I was going to get. I gave the Rincon 4 stars but there are 2 parts of the shoe that are only worthy of 3-stars (and that might be generous). I have run about 15 miles on these shoes since receiving them (all on paved surfaces) and the outsole is already showing signs of wear. Secondly, the insert is very, very thin. It hardly serves a purpose. I am a neutral heel-striker with a high arch. If my arch was any higher, I would inevitably have to replace them with custom inserts. However, on the 5-star side - these shoes are LIGHT. My other go-to road shoes are the Brooks Ghosts and these shoes make them feel like concrete. The midsole is fantastic - great balance between response, cushion, and support. No shin, ankle, or knee problems whatsoever and my post-run soreness (I'm 41) has been reduced. Upper is highly breathable - will be a great spring/summer running shoe for here in Central Texas. My trail runners (and favorite shoes) are Speedgoat 2s and Hoka told me that these be the closest fit to the Speedgoats.
