We love these vibrant sneaks for both running and walking. They provide gentle, lightweight support, and the American Podiatric Medical Association agrees; it has bestowed its coveted Seal of Acceptance on the Cliftons. Yahoo also named them the best walking shoes for women. “They’re absolutely cloud-like,” raved Yahoo Deputy Editor Izabella Zaydenberg. “They were the only shoes that didn’t exacerbate my plantar fasciitis (especially when I walked for hours at Disneyland).”
I own a pair of Cliftons, and I wear them every time I go for long walks, whether on a treadmill, on a trail or around town. They’re undoubtedly the most comfortable walking shoes I’ve ever worn, and had zero break-in time. They’re lightweight and breathable, and the rubber sole provides great traction.Â
Meet Hoka’s other most popular kicks. The lookers have amassed tons of five-star ratings from shoppers and made our list of the best Hoka shoes for walking. At less than 9 ounces, they won’t weigh you down on a trip. Yahoo Commerce Editor Saundra Latham packed them for a cruise, walking over 15,000 steps a day. “They’re ultra-cushioned with a flexible upper that’s almost sock-like, so it molds to my foot,” she said.
These sporty sneaks with ultra-plush cushioning have the thickest insole of the shoes on this list. Certain colors and sizes are 20% off.

“After many months and many attempts to find shoes that would help me heal my plantar fasciitis, I discovered Hoka and the Arahi 7,” said one shopper. “I was amazed at how light the shoes are and even more amazed with the support and comfort they provide my feet. I immediately felt that these shoes put me on the path to rapid healing and I was right.”
The Kaha mid-risers are one of our favorite hiking boots of the year. Designed to stabilize your step and prevent unfortunate ankle twists, they provide awesome support a customizable lace-up fit. The abrasion-resistant toecap and heel offer extra protection, and we love the heel pull tab for easily getting them on and off.
Outdoor enthusiast and Hoka global advocate Nicole Snell called the Kahas her “all-time favorite hiking boots,” adding, “I first tried them in 2019 and fell in love! I put over 800 aggressive miles on that pair before I had to retire them and get a new pair. The Kaha is comfortable and cushioned right out of the box. It feels like you’re hiking on clouds!”Â
Another pair that made our best hiking boots list, these nubuck leather winners are pre-treated to stop snow, slush and water from seeping in.
