Dad sneakers are going strong despite being meme-ified. You will know them by their off-the-clock look and their use of a puffy sole. Hoka is the champ of this look, even though Nike and New Balance are classics.
Hoka One One was created with runners in mind. The brand took off thanks to the huge, ultra-cushioned soles and legendary comfort. The price tag is the only hitch with Hoka’s kicks.
I have some good news if you aren’t ready to pay.
Walmart’s Avia Hightail running sneakers look similar to Hoka’s Clifton 8s. The Avia sneaks are available in several colors, but the lavender and navy ones pass the Hoka vibe test. The mesh uppers and EVA soles are very similar to the originals.
Online reviewers and TikTok-ers alike say the same thing. They were found on TikTok before I bought them. Brooklyn said that he was not a fan of the price of Hoka running shoes. I have been obsessed ever since I bought these. They are stylish and comfortable. The style looks athletic but still fashionable and could be worn to the gym or casually. The sole of the shoe is soft and allows for a softer impact when being active.
Most customers are satisfied with their fit, comfort, and style with a 4.5-star rating and 123 reviews. Reviewers said to scoop up the shoe in multiple colors. The user said she was about to get eight more pairs. The supportive properties of the sneaker were praised by others.
Lavender: $27.98 at Walmart
Some reviewers said the cheaper Walmart kicks weren’t a perfect copy of the pricier ones. These shoes are a great price. Mom wrote that it is not Hoka replacement for those that think so. The Walmart version isn’t as soft and cushion-y as TikTok-erAshley says.
If you are looking for a pair of cool looking sneakers that are going to offer reviewer-approved comfort, Walmart is the place to go. Thanks to their competitive price, the sneakers are selling fast, so grab a pair for back to school, a new gym routine or just to try something new.
