Step 1:

  • Begin your claim through HOKA’s online Returns Center using your proof of purchase.

  • HOKA’s system first performs a digital eligibility check, confirming your shoes were purchased from HOKA or an authorized retailer.

  • This virtual-first process helps filter claims before any product is physically returned.

Step 2:

  • HOKA’s Warranty Team will contact you by email and request detailed photos of the defect.

  • Their specialists conduct a virtual inspection that usually takes 1–3 weeks, eliminating unnecessary shipping delays.

  • You must wait for approval before sending your footwear, as unapproved returns are not evaluated.

Step 3:

  • If your claim is approved, HOKA issues return instructions for warehouse verification.

  • Instead of repairing footwear, HOKA typically provides merchandise credit or a refund equal to your purchase value for eligible claims.

  • Merchandise credits do not expire, giving you flexibility to choose your next replacement pair when ready.

HOKA Warranty Period:

  • 1-Year Limited Warranty
