Hoka goretex

Hello ,

I bought a pair of hoka anacapa gtx shoes 2 months ago .


Amazing comfort but

I notice on both shoes the inner lining on the front is a bit ripped after only 2 moths .

Is this normal or should an ask for a replacement from hoka ? Does it affects waterproofness with time ?

Thanks a lot

I walked a fair bit the last months couple of hikes , city walks , but nothing out of the ordinary. And after all these shoes are supposed to be more sturdy than normal sneakers. If there was just some normal wear I would be ok but this affects the waterproofness and that annoys me.

Anyway I sent them back but I bought them from a third party retailer and not directly from hoka . I don’t expect much as they will say normal wear blah blah blah . If that’s the case i will never buy hoka again.

I had cheap sneakers in the past that lasted longer than that. It’s nice to have all the bells and whistles in a shoes but that means nothing without durability…. Especially in a hiking shoe
