Why We Like The HOKA Anacapa 2 Freedom Hiking Shoe
HOKA's Anacapa 2 Freedom Hiking Shoe gets us on the trail quickly and fights off fatigue to keep us exploring longer. The flexible, spring-back heel and stretchy tongue gusset let us slide our feet in without having to unlace and re-lace, while the upper's foot-molding leather and the sockliner's cushy soy-based foam give us instant step-in comfort in sustainable style. With every mile, the plush yet lively midsole foam softens the ground, and the Late-Stage MetaRocker stabilizes our steps, encouraging us to go farther.

These Anacapas have a tendency towards medial collapse.
The first pair of Anacapas were great. Good support and durability. Lasted me 6 months. This latest pair have proven not as good. This pair has a tendency to collapse my medial arch. I'll need arch supports to help me traverse the mountains and rugged hills. Really hard on my ankles.

Love the fit and Cush of the Transport
Transport is a perfect all around for on and off road. Followed this with a more aggressive Anacapa. Looks large on your feet but well worth the results you get while hiking and such. I'm more comfortable wearing transports but the tongue webbing on the sides in the Anacapa are more defensive of debris entering the shoe. Anacapa is more agressive but both are amazing. Transport GTX is awesome, though.

Not a perfect fit
I bought these shoes to play golf in. They work fine for golf, but like others have mentioned the fit is too tight in the toe. Especially in the right foot. Has given me a blister on my right big toe. Loosened the laces at the toe, maybe better. Planning to try a thinner sock. Still have 30 days to exchange....we'll see how it goes

Not as wide as wide 2E Hoka bondi
Bought these because I love my wide bondis. I love the shoes but can't wear them. They are to narrow for me and squeeze my outside two toes together so they hurt. Back to my keen hikers I guess.

Amazing
These are the freaking best shoe, I have had in a long time! They are slip ons and you can hike in them. Very comfortable and fit almost perfectly!

Lightweight hiking in style
I just came back from 2 weeks hiking in Colorado and Utah. I bought the Anacapa 2 as I was looking for something lightweight and "small" given I was travelling on a motorcycle and did not want to use up the entire space of one of my panniers for full-size hiking boots. I was in between trail running shoes and a low hiking shoe. After having examined the difference between both, I went with a hiking shoe due to the more stable/ durable sole accepting the weight disadvantage. I am super happy with the Anacapa 2. It performed very well on uneven rocky terrain in the Colorado Rocky's (and Great Basin) and did equally well in Utah on sand and smooth rock. Good grip and decent dampening. Of course I did not expect the same ancle support as I would get from a full-height 6-8in boot. On top of all that, I like the styling of the shoe not being overly flashy allowing it to be the only pair of non-motorcycle shoes I took on this trip. If I would need to find one Con, it would be more of a personal problem than a Hoka problem. I have narrow feet and believe that a C width would be even better than the D width offered.

A most comfortable hiking shoe!
Needed a new shoe for lite hiking with the dogs that had good tread and was comfortable too. This HOKA shoe fits that need perfectly. Would purchase again if this pair ever wore out, which is doubtful.
