To have a better grasp of the Hoka Anacapa series, you can check our review on Hoka Anacapa Low GTX as they fall under the same niche.

The Limited Ankle Support Aspect:

To ensure better mobility and breathability, Hoka opted for a low-cut design with the Anacapa Breeze Low.

Owing to this low-cut design, if we compare it to other traditional boots, the Anacapa Breeze Low might not have similar ankle support and this is potentially the only major drawback of this Hoka shoe if we exclude the pricing factor.

Easy to put on:

As Hoka always prioritises customer convenience, it is quite impressive how detailed they get when it comes to customising the shoe.

The upper heel of the Hoka Anacapa has been designed in a V-shaped way, such that it makes it very easy for everyone to put on the shoe without any major friction

On top of this, because there is enough space in the toe box, one can adjust to the shoe right away and feel comfortable.

Hoke Anacapa Breeze Low and its Contemporaries:

As we know, the niche concerning hiking shoes is pretty saturated. Based on this, for obvious reasons, people are indeed open to trying out different shoes within the niche.
