Performance TrainersPerformance Trainers
Performance Trainers provide a springy feel and make longer runs easier and faster runs faster. While quicker than Daily Trainers, Performance Trainers are not nearly as fast as Super Shoes. Due to a focus on keeping things light weight, Performance Trainers are less durable than Daily Trainers. These can also be a good option for one's first race shoe.

Cushioning Level
Cushioning level, or stack height, refers to how much shoe is between your foot and the ground. For this category, we reference the amount of cushioning below the forefoot as the heel height will be equal to or greater than the forefoot height.
Learn more about stack heights and how we measure them.-
Barefoot
0-13mm. The Shoe generally does not have a midsole and feels like there is no cushioning. This shoe is all about feeling the ground underfoot.
-
Minimal
14-18mm. The shoe has a thin midsole that allows for a natural running experience. Racing shoes and minimalist shoes are common here. These shoes offer a feeling of being connected to the road or trail.
-
Low
19-23mm. The shoe has a slightly cushioned feel and may feature added cushioning technologies. Performance training shoes and some trail shoes are common here. These offer protection during footstrike but prioritize a lightweight, grounded experience.
-
Medium
24-28mm. These shoes have a stack height that fall near the middle of the spectrum.The shoes in this category are verstaile and great for all types of runs and distances.
-
High
29-34mm. The shoe has a thick midsole and ample cushioning. These shoes are highly protective and absorb more impact than the body.
-
Maximal
35mm plus. The shoe has an extremely thick midsole and extra cushioning. The focus is on protection and soft foam underfoot with hardly any ground feel.
Stability Level
-
Neutral
Neutral shoes support the foot through a normal range of arch collapse and generally do not have a built-in technology to correct movement.
-
Stable
Stability shoes are a great option for those who overpronate or need added support. These shoes help to limit the inward rolling motion of the ankle while running or walking and assist in guiding the foot straight through the gait cycle.

Previous Feedback
Comments: Concerning Hoka One One FlipFlips whose cost was over £40, the strap between toes was totally inferior as it constantly rubs. It's not unlike a piece of wire instead of ANY cushioned device. Do I now have to resort making my own for ANY comfort??
From: Susan. England. August 25th, 2021
Comments: I love my Hoka Recovery sandals. I didn't think I would like the new style but now that I have worn them a while, I like them better than the old style. These sandals provide comfort, excellent arch support, and stability. I'm going to order another pair from Running Warehouse. That is where I found the best selection of sizes and colors.
From: Anonymous. August 8th, 2021
Comments: I absolutely love these flip flops and need to order more colors! I have plantar fasciitis and have to wear something on my feet all the time. These are perfect and have helped my recovery tremendously.
From: Jill. Amesbury, MA. July 27th, 2021
Comments: These HOKA flip flops are the most comfortable footwear I have ever had. I wear them at home, grocery shopping, to the mall, and out to eat for luncheons!
From: Ismelda. Houston, TX. July 25th, 2021
Comments: I have plantar fasciitis and these flip flops are great. Total support for my feet. They are comfortable too.
From: Anonymous. May 23rd, 2021
Comments: I love my Hoka Ora Recovery Flips. I wear them every day all day. Feet and knees feel great. I highly recommend them and will be ordering another style soon.
From: Linda, February 9th 2021
Comments: I feel like I'm wearing my work shoes, only difference is there sandals.
From: Anonymous. January 16th 2021
Comments: Very comfortable. I wear them around the house when I am cleaning and my feet and knees do not hurt anymore. I usually wear a size 8.5 and I ordered a size 8. I think a size 9 would have fit a little better.
From: Kristen, Hawaii. January 15th 2021
Comments: excellent fit and quality
From: Kimberly, Santa Maria, CA. January 8th 2021
Comments: I had these shoes recommended by my podiatrist after I had developed painful foot problems from being at home all day and walking on hard floors. They totally helped and my sore big toe problem cleared very quickly.
From: Rebecca. December 5th 2020
Comments: I really like the Hoka sandal. It was comfortable between my toes without having to adjust or "wear in" and its ultra softness really emphasize the "recovery" aspect of their design. The only downside for me is the tread really trap small gravel.
From: Anonymous. October 25th 2020
Comments: It love the Hoka Bondi 6 running shoe. I do not run but walk and they are extremely comfortable so when I saw the recovery flips... I just had to try them. My feet are so glad I did!!! They really have the cushioning that I need. At 56yo, I wear them all day long in the house. I have mild arthritis of both feet and am overweight. Also the fat pads on the bottom of my feet have thinned due to age and weight. I love flip flops but need more support. Hoka recovery flips give me exactly what I need. I do plan on buying another pair.
From: Rita Parkville, Maryland. October 22nd 2020
Comments: I had very high expectations for the cushy soft lift of my heel.
It felt different also very wide and I felt like I was walking in fins.
Well made though and I hope they improve the design.
From: Anna Boise. October 19th 2020
Comments: My podiatrist recommended this brand and I'm glad I listened to him! I had surgery for a neuroma and still couldn't stand the pain of wearing most all of my shoes. These flip-flops are spongy and super comfortable. They have a slight ledge that "cups" my feet giving more security than any other flip-flop on the market. I plan on purchasing another pair. Even though this wasn't the color combo I desired (other was out of stock) it's the first time I've had strangers comment on how cute my sandals are and ask where did I buy them. Hopefully I sent a few new customers to HOKA.
From: Elena, California. October 9th 2020
Comments: Bought them for my mom, for Mother's Day, she loves them.
From: Anonymous. June 22nd 2020
Comments: Returned them - the plastic between the toes was very uncomfortable and irritating. Easy return with Running Warehouse.
From: Anonymous, June 22nd 2020
Comments: HOKA flippies are the best. Have 2 pair to keep my feet happy. Wear them whenever I do not have a runner on my feet. Must have.
From: Pete Cape Cod, MA. June 22nd 2020
Comments: This flip flops are great for around the house. The cushion is fabulous. Perfect for cooking and being on my feet all day. Great for the walks outside with my dog too! They are Sturdy and wonderful for the boat also as the bottom is white so my husband would not complain about scuffs. Overall a 10!
From: Anonymous. May 1st 2020
Comments: I love the comfort of the padding on the bottom of the shoe, however the piece in between the toes hurt really bad
when I walked. Sent them back for Hoka Ricon shoe.
From: Anonymous. April 7th 2020
Comments: These are the most plush and comfortable flip-flops I have ever owned, I love them so much!! I have tried on many but nothing like these. These fit perfectly even with wider feet, like the glass slipper fit Cinderella! They stay on well and feel custom-made. :)
From: Natalie. January 16th 2020
Comments: I've struggled with plantar fasciitis, for flip flops I won't wear anything else!'

Unique and durable
I love these - everything about them
From: Ellie. September 25th 2019
Comments: Best recovery sandal for me I was having foot pain after a run and started wearing the sandals right after big difference. Now I wear them even when I get home from work around the house.
From: Angeles. September 23rd 2019
Comments: I have been wanting to order these but have been hesitant because of my plantar fasciitis. Finally pulled the trigger and I absolutely love them..... highly recommend
From: Lisa, Knoxville, TN. September 14th 2019
Comments: Super comfortable and love the two tone color! Great after workout sandal and for around the house!
From: Anonymous. August 31st 2019
Comments: I don't ordinarily write reviews but these sandals saved my feet. I had developed a bone bruise in my heel that was keeping me from doing anything and it improved dramatically after wearing these sandals exclusively for a couple of weeks. I now have cushy insoles in all my shoes and am walking with no pain and hiking again. I hope to be back to running soon. As other reviewers said, they required breaking in as the part that fits between your toes is rough but, overall, they are fantastic!
From: Sue, Vermont. July 7th 2019
Comments: Recovery sandal is very comfortable did not have any problems with fit. The sandal was recommended by my orthopedic surgeon for plantar fasciitis.
From: Anonymous. July 3rd 2019
Comments: Great recovery sandal. Stable and comfortable. The part near the toe is a bit stiff when you first get it but after a couple of uses it softens and it's no problem. I like them more than the Oofos.
From: Damaris, Miami, FL. June 20th 2019
Comments: Love this flip flop, but like others have reviewed, the piece between the toes needed to be revamped! My Rt was fine, the left cut into my toe. I wrapped it in tape (electrical tape worked great) to add cushion worked fine... . I know I could have returned them (return policy is great!), for the price this should not be happening, but with a little tape these flip flops are great.
From: CC, Minnesota. June 12th 2019
Comments: Flip flops very comfortable. The piece between the toe was a little stiff but after wearing a couple of days it softened up. Very happy with them.
From: Anonymous. April 26th 2019
Comments: The cushioning on these recovery shoes was great, however, the top band was very sharp and cut into the top of my foot in two places where it rubbed against it, had to return them. Running Warehouse's return process was easy and I had no problems returning them.
From: Kim, Mobile. April 25th 2019
Comments: The Hoka flip flops are so incredibly comfortable and supportive however they need to seriously work on the piece that goes between your toes - it is so hard and uncomfortable! I cannot wear them for long as it rubs a sore between my toes!
From: Kim. April 14th, 2019
Comments: One dealbreaker. The part between the toes is unbearable. It is so rough. There is no way one could wear these and still have toes at the end of the day. The shoe would be perfect otherwise.
From: Whitney. April 9th 2019
Comments: I love the Hoka One One Clifton, however the recovery flip flop was not the same. It runs really small and I did not care for the strap.
