- Heavier than other walking shoes due to robust construction
“I just picked up the transport 2 in 12 wide, and they're barely wider than my old Vans slip-ons. I've worn plenty of non-wide shoes that are wider than these "wide" Hoka.”r/Hoka
Reddit's Hoka community paints a divided picture of the Transport line. For those it fits well, it delivers, one user logging “6-8 miles each day”4 on a walking tour found it “so comfortable, with a good tread and good stability”4 and “no blisters”4, naming it their favorite shoe. But fit inconsistencies surface repeatedly: wide-width buyers report the shoes are “barely wider than old Vans slip-ons”, and at least one traveler who sized up for comfort was still “out of action”5 after “20k steps each day”5 just two days into a holiday. The consensus is that the Transport rewards those who nail the fit, but punishes those who don't.
