I have a flat feet and searching running shoes. Just tried it in the store, feels really comfortable. Better than nike, asics and other ones. I think i will stop on it. thanks for the video!
Tim - first of all thanks for the great and thorough reviews and to me, it's the best stuff on the internet. I've been running now for 50 years but last year was almost a running wipeout for me, not due to the pandemic, but rather 2 days of spinal fusion surgery in January 2020. I walked all year and ran a little very late in the year but now 17 months post-op I'm running again (more like trotting) and really feeling great. So here's my dilemma. I've always been a "big" runner (6'2") and as recently as 2017 ran the NYC Marathon at around 235 lbs (I wore Brooks Adrenaline) However, during my downtime last year I gained weight and I'm working hard to drop it and I hope to get close to my 1980 MCM weight of 180 in 1 year. I started wearing the Hoka Clifton 5's in early 2018 and really like the engineering of the shoe. As I'm about to turn 73 in July I think the Hoka Gaviota 3 design concept fits my age and challenges. So right now I need the cushioning etc and for sure, screw any thoughts of a PR. I am a natural size 12 or 13D and based on "gait" testing/video in 2004 it was recommended I jump to size 14 and I've burned through many a pair of size 14 Brooks Adrenaline since then. In my case considering age, surgery, body size I know you are not a shoe fitter but do you think, based on your suggestions, that ordering the Gaviota 3 in both the 13.5 W and 14D makes sense and then make a home based decision on which to keep?
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience. I'm glad you are doing better and are able to start running again. Illness and injuries are a part of life and I am inspired by your tenacity. I ran in the Brooks Adrenaline for years and made the switch to the Gaviota a few years ago and was very happy with the move. Your idea to order the 2 different sizes is a good plan. Sadly shopping in person to try running shoes on right now is still limited so I think this is a great option for you. I will be interested to hear what you ultimately decide on. Good luck with your new shoes. Have a great weekend.
I'm honestly surprised at how mesmerised i was by running. I'm currently working my way to normality and have to start with running but that bit of running was magical dude. thanks for sharing the review my pair just arrived today and I would appreciate the video.
Enjoy our new shoes! That's awesome. I get pumped every time a new pair of running shoes show up from FedX or UPS. Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great day and thanks again!
I’m in the market for good running shoes. I’ve done research before buying many types of products in the past, but never before buying shoes. This is exactly the type of video and channel I was looking for. Thanks for the great video Tim!
I just got the Gaviotas. They are heavy and I got break-in burn. I like the Rincons the best, no burn issues at all. And I just got the Carbon 1s and they are excellent as well.
Loved this! Great presentation and love your style of delivery. Really impressed by your review. Currently running in ATR5 and they are perishing now so will look at these. Best wishes!
Hi Tim, Currently run in the Gaviota 2 and appreciate your in depth review of the differences / changes in the Gaviota 3. Looking at other max stability shoe options, do you plan to review the Saucony Hurricane 23? Thanks
Hey thanks for watching and taking the time too comment. I greatly appreciate it. I don't currently have a Hurricane 23. It is a shoe that I'm interested in checking out though. Have a great day and thanks again.
Great review there Tim, I also look to retire my runners into lifestyle use. We pay so much for them we have to get as much use as possible. Stay safe 👍#tonyjamesrunning
They are both comfortable but I'd personally go with the Gel Kayano Lite over the Gaviota 3. They feel a little more natural and smooth through my gait cycle. Have a great weekend and thanks for watching.
@@RunTall thanks for the reply Tim, unfortunately the Kayano Lite isn’t available in the uk 🤷🏻♂️ although I think the DS 26 is a pretty similar shoe 👍🏻
If you need pronation control than these are great for that. I have flat feet and naturally over pronate. The Gaviota 2 and 3 are comfortable and will do a good job for long 10 hour shifts. If pronation control isn’t a need than the Bondi is a great Hoka choice. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.
Great review! I was wondering if there have been any changes with the width and height of the toebox between the Gaviota 2 and Gaviota 3? I currently own the Adrenaline GTS 20 and the 860v11, how does the Gaviota 2/3 fair in comparison with regards to cushioning, room and stability?
Hey thanks for watching and taking the time to ask the question. The Gaviota 3 is more narrow in the toebox and the midsole when compared to the Gaviota 2. HOKA also added 2mm more of EVA foam to the midsole. However, I think the Gaviota 3 feels a little less cushioned than the Gaviota 2. They are both great stability shoes depending on your preference. Have a great day.
@@RunTall Thank you for taking the time out to answer, I really appreciate it. It seems Gaviota 2 would be more suitable for me then, but sadly I cannot get hold of the wide fit anymore in the UK. I will try the Gaviota 3, it seems great that they added more EVA to mid sole, but I will have to see if the upper section of my foot will fit in. If it is similar to the 860v11, I should be okay Many thanks again
I think they'd work well for you. I like the Gaviota 2 a lot and you might be able to find it on sale. They've really held up for me. They are a stability shoe and will help if you over pronate. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great day!
Thanks for the review Tim! Very helpful as I love my Gaviota 2s. Given that you've enjoyed the Gaviota 2s over 1000 miles, would you prefer it over the 3?
I prefer the ride the midsole gives me in the Gaviota 2 and I prefer the upper on the Gaviota 3. If I could only pick one shoe between the two it would be the Gaviota 2. Hey thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great day and thanks again.
Hi Tim!Thank you for your reviews.🙏They help a lot, when it comes to bying a new shoe.I have a question, and you might know the answer.I hab a Bondi 7, but I found them to soft,I sent it back.Someone said, that the Gaviota is not as soft as the Bondi.Is that right?My right foot was injured and it needs stabilisation...this is why I am wondering. Thank you so much again.
The Gaviota isn't as soft as the Bondi, but they are highly cushioned for a stability shoe. They might be a good option for you. They are very stable and will do a good job controlling pronation. I hope this helps. Have a great day and thanks for watching.
Awesome! I'm glad they are working out for you. Not all running shoes work well for walking so I'm glad to hear it. Thanks for sharing your experience in the Gaviota 3's! Have a great day.
Stability shoes' mid soles are mostly hard and solid, I know only Arahi 5 in Hoka but it's Gaviota with max cushion...how much is softer than Arahi 5 and any other max cushioning and stability shoes?
The Arahi 5 is like the stability version of the Clifton while the Gaviota is the stability version of the Bondi. The Gaviota 3 does feel soft and well cushioned. I can't compare it to the Arahi 5 as I haven't run in those shoes. I have had the Arahi on foot in the past but it's been awhile. You are absolutely right about the midsole in stability shoes needing to be more dense in some areas to help reduce under or over pronation issues. A lot of more dense material seems to be around the heel and the medial side of the shoe (I think anyway). The more I mid to forefoot strike the less of an issue that becomes. These do have a lot of cushion in those areas. These are on par with the Asics Gel Kayano Lite and they are they feel much softer to me than the Brooks Adrenaline's do. I hope this helps. Hey thanks for watching and have a great day.
Would you say the gaviota is wider and more accommodating then the Bondi 7? I tried the Bondi 7 recently and while it was the perfect length it felt super snug even in the 2E size. Thoughts on that?
I just picked up a pair of the Bondi 7 a couple days ago and you are right about them being snug. I was really surprised by that. The Gaviota 3 feels about the same to me. They both fit snug. Thanks for watching and for asking the question. Have a great day and stay safe!
Hello, I'm not a runner. I currently have the Hoka Bondi 7. I do a lot of walking, have you had a chance to test those? Would these be better than Bondi 7?
I have not. But I think they are going to be my next purchase. I'm curious how they will stack up with some of the other max cushion daily trainers that came out this year. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.
Hi Tim, you mentioned the meta rocker being a bit too far up the foot. Is that the same with the 2s? And being lighter, do you like the 2s more? Love your reviews...
All of the Gaviota's have the late stage meta rocker. It does provide for a really stable ride. These are a max stability shoe. The 3's seem to be built up a little more than the 2's on the medial side from your arch back to your heel. This does slow your pronation down a lot. I'm going to have to log more miles in the 3's to know if I like that more or not. I've always found the 2's to be a great stability shoe for me. At this point, I think I do prefer the 2's over the 3's but I really need to put in more miles. I've been wearing the 3's around for everyday use lately just to get a better feel for them. The EVA seems to be breaking in a little making them feel softer than my initial run. So a little more testing and I'll have a better answer. Thanks for watching. Have a great day and stay safe.
Hey thanks for watching and taking the time to ask the question. Unfortunately I haven't run or walked in the Brooks Beasts so I can't compare the two. However, the Gaviota 3 is a soft and highly cushioned shoe that offers a lot of pronation control. Have a great day and thanks again for watching.
Yes I think they should do fine on a treadmill. I haven't run with them on one but I don't see any reason that they wouldn't perform well. Hey thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great day and stay safe.
Hey thanks for watching and taking the time to ask the question. No, they do well for easy pace days. The Arahi is a faster shoe. Have a great day and thanks again.
Hi Tim. First, I want to wish you a speedy recovery. It must be difficult for you. The Gaviota 3 is a max stability shoe and I think you do well with it. They are very stable but with plenty of cushion. I'm not a doctor or physical therapist so it might be a good idea to check with them as well to be sure you are not going cause any more damage and will help you as you go through rehab. The only question I'd have is the offset from the heel to the toe. Hoka has a relatively lower offset. These feature a 5mm drop from the heel to toe. In the past when I've been rehabbing a knee injury my PT had me install lifts in my heel to increase the offset to reduce the stress on my knee. I hope your rehab goes well and you are up and running soon. Take care and have a great day.
@@RunTall Well that makes sense! Thanks for the feedback! I’ll make sure to check with my physical therapist and see if I need to get heel lifts for the first few weeks after surgery. I appreciate the help!
Just bought the Bondi 7. I'm coming back to running after years (feel like a beginner again), and housing a couple partial meniscus tears. Would these have been better than the Bondi's for a beginner and someone looking for maximum cushion? Just asking because of the 'stability' aspect. Thanks!
If you are a neutral shoe runner than the Bondi 7's are probably a better fit. The Gaviota's are a max stability shoe so they want to guide your foot strike. But if you don't need that, the Bondi's will be a softer ride. I hope this helps. Hey thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Have a great day and thanks again.
Hi Tim , I recently ordered the bondi 7 but it didn’t fit me well and I felt the glycerine was way more soft and plush . Is there any shoes that is better than glycerine? Saucony hurricane 23 ??? Kindly advice and also about the size of I recommend saucony .
Hey thanks for watching and taking the time to ask great questions. I really appreciate it. So with Saucony I order true to size and is worked out week for me. If you are looking for a Max cushion daily trainer, I recently picked up a pair of the New Balance More V3. I didn't know much about them before picking them up, but I'm glad I did. They feel great. I'm in the process of putting together a review. But if your looking for a plush and comfortable daily trainer, these are worth checking out. I haven't run in the Hurricane so I'm not able to offer any insight there, although that is a shoe I'm curious to learn more about. Have a great day and thanks again.
@@RunTall thank you tim , May I ask is the new balance going to be better than saucony triumph 18 or brooks glycerine 19 gts . What about sizing for the new balance . Thanks and keep rocking
Hey I hope your Friday is going great. You know, I do think it's better than the Triumph 18. They are really comfortable. I could see some runners finding the midsole to be a little too bouncy but I'm really liking them. I have the Glycerin 19 but not the stability GTS version so I can't make that comparison but I'm liking them more than the Glycerin 19 as well. Have a great weekend!
The Gaviota is a max cushion and max stability shoe, so for a stability shoe they are well cushioned but all stability shoes are going to be somewhat firm in order to control pronation. The New Balance More V3 isn't a stability shoe but it is max cushion. For me, I do over pronate but I run in neutral shoes most of the time. I do prefer the New Balance More V3 over the ride I get in the Gaviota. Have a great weekend.
