Hoka Shoes Price: Retail & Resale Prices

HOKA sells running, walking, trail, and recovery footwear, and the price depends mostly on the model. The cushioned road shoes that most people picture when they think of the brand cluster within a fairly narrow band, while sandals and specialty shoes sit well below it and waterproof versions sit above.

This page lists current US prices from HOKA's own site and from Zappos, which carries a wider set of models. It also explains what changes a price and what to check before you buy, including colorway, width, and where you shop.

On HOKA's US site, the Clifton 11 lists at $155 for men's and $155 for women's. The Bondi 9, the brand's max-cushion road shoe, lists at $175 for men's and $175 for women's. HOKA labels the Bondi as a neutral, plush shoe, and the Clifton as neutral and balanced.

The prices above apply to the standard version of each shoe. Wide widths are offered on many models, and HOKA shows the width options on the product page. Check the listing for the exact width and color you want.

Zappos lists a wider part of the range. These are retailer prices, so they can differ slightly from HOKA's own site, but they give a sense of where other models fall.

Stability shoes such as the Arahi 9 are listed at $154.95 and the Gaviota 6 at $179.95. The Challenger 8 lists at $154.95 and the Transport 2 at $154.95. The Solimar 2 is lower at $124.95, and the Ora Recovery Slide 3 sandal is the least expensive item here at $59.95. The waterproof Clifton 11 GTX lists at $174.95, above the standard Clifton 11 on HOKA's site.

• Model and purpose. Road, trail, stability, and recovery shoes each carry their own price. The waterproof Clifton 11 GTX, for example, lists above the standard Clifton 11.
• Version number. HOKA updates its core shoes regularly, so the current Clifton or Bondi is the one with the highest price and the previous version may be discounted by retailers.
• Gender and width. Men's and women's versions of the same model are often priced the same, and wide versions may be too, but check each listing.
• Where you buy. HOKA, Zappos, running specialty stores, and department stores can differ by small amounts, and promotions come and go.
• Sales tax and shipping. Both depend on the retailer and your state.

HOKA shoes are made to be worn and replaced, not collected, so most pairs lose value once they are used. This page does not give resale figures, because they depend on the exact release, condition, and size. For regular models, the more useful comparison is between the HOKA list price and what retailers charge during a sale. Last season's colorway or the previous version of a shoe is often the easiest place to find a lower price.

Most of the time the price difference between neighboring models is smaller than the fit difference. Before you pay, consider these points:

• Decide what you will use the shoe for: daily road runs, walking, trail, or recovery.
• Try the shoe in your size and width, or buy from a retailer with an easy return policy.
• Check whether a stability shoe like the Arahi or Gaviota is what you need or whether a neutral shoe works.
• Compare the listing at HOKA with at least one other retailer before you buy.

A podiatrist or a running store specialist can advise on stability and fit if you have foot pain or a gait concern, and that is better guidance than price alone.
