I dislike tightening the lace using your inside to out pattern . It looks nice but is more awkward. I reversed the top three and am happy .

Thank you so much for your amazing support and for being such a valued and cherished part of the Hike family. We are always here for you!

Awful experience

1st response shorten...I purchased a pair of shoes from this company that I cannot wear because they caused me significant discomfort. Instead of standing behind their 100% satisfaction guarantee, they refused to refund my money. The customer service was disappointing, and I will not purchase from this company again or recommend it to others.

Response to your claim:

Your response states that you sent me an email regarding my complaint and offered a resolution. That is simply not true. The only email I ever received from your company offered me a discount, which I have no interest in using.
Your company advertises a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee, yet you have refused to honor it. I am requesting a full refund because I have never been able to wear these shoes. They caused me significant pain and worsened my condition, and I am still dealing with the effects today.
Your shoes did not perform as advertised for someone with my medical issues, and I believe your satisfaction guarantee should mean something. I am not asking for another discount or future purchase incentive. I am asking you to do the right thing and issue a full refund for a product that I could not use.

What made my experience great is the experience of wearing great shoes

What made my experience great is the shoes, and the ease of ordering. The very first time I ordered, I had ordered the wrong size. I emailed that I was sending back the shoes because of wrong size and I gave the correct size I needed. I had just put the pair of shoes in the mail to send back and a few days later I had the new pair. I know they hadn't received the pair I just placed in the mail yet! Another reason, I love these shoes and will never buy another brand shoe, my feet, I find shoes hard to find that are comfortable for my feet and my back. But I finally found that comfort with Hike shoes, my feet and back have absolutely no pain after wearing them all day! To me that is priceless. I'm telling all my friend and family and anybody else I hear complain about their feet hurting! I even bought a couple pair for my 12-year-old grandson, he absolutely loves his shoes. He told his parents they are the best shoes he's ever had.
The cost is not to high considering what a "good" pair of shoes in the store now days can cost so, I'm glad to pay what I do for Hike shoes, they are well worth it!

Fabulous experience. Exactly as advertised. Sizing was accurate, but size up for the fleece lined booties if you want to wear a sock with them. Just love these shoes!

Shoes that don't hurt

The size is a fairly comfortable fit. I like them for the way my toes feel when walking. Both of my big toes are hammer toes and most shoes are very uncomfortable. Your design gives the room needed to accommodate this.

Goodbye shin splints and calf pain!

I’ve been wearing my new Hike shoes for a few weeks now and they’ve been wonderful! The soles are not as thick as other shoes, which has taken some getting used to, but shin splints are no longer an issue so I’m extremely grateful! I can actually enjoy moving my body again and go on all the walks :) Plus the color is cuuuuuute and they are light and airy so my feet don’t overheat!

7/26/26 - I cannot get anyone from HIKE to return my emails and I cannot call in or ask for a call back. I'm beginning to thing that this was all a scam and I will need to get my credit card company involved to get my money refunded as the shoes are too big and I need to return them and get my money back.

8/4/2026 Update: I'm so glad that you responded to me. I hope you get my email asking for a full refund and a return address in the USA so that I can return the shoes to your company.

We are fully committed to making this right for you immediately and we do not want you to have to involve your credit card company.

We apologize for the frustration you’ve experienced with your shoes being too large and the difficulty you’ve faced while trying to get assistance with your exchange.

Due to a degenerative back issue I find…

Due to a degenerative back issue I find I need lightweight shoes to wear these days. Also something that felt good on my feet through the day. The Hike footwear fills the bill. I now own several pairs and always check their ads through emails I receive to see new offerings. I found their customer services are spot on. The shoes keep me grounded and so comfortable that I do not have an urgency to remove them as I have done with other shoes. I found their customer help in choosing my style and size was easy. The toe box is comfortable for the width of my foot. I normally wear in a regular shoe a 8.5 wide or 9.0 to accommodate the width of my foot. With Hike it is just ordering 8.5! And go!! Balance with the shoes are great too. For more clarity, I am an 81 year old lady. Ordering and delivery was easy and on time as promised.

The shoes were too small, even with countless emails making an offer for resolution, I was not able to actually speak with a live person to answer my questions before accepting the suggested resolution.

Well the reply to my 1st review must…

Well the reply to my 1st review must have been automated or AI generated, though it appeared to be an apology, nothing was said or a solution offered to correct my problem. As a matter of fact they never asked what the problem was, or how they could make me a happy customer? They just said they were sorry the communication was not satisfactory to me. To clarify 1 thing my money back guarantee has not expired yet. I still don't know how to get this worked out before it expired. So no I do not want to change or edit my 1st review. Unless I can give 1/2 a star just because giving no star would be like not voting.
