HOKA Shoes for Men & Women – Maximum Support on Every Terrain
Whilst out on the mountain trails around Annecy back in 2009, Nicolas Mermoud and Jean-Luc Diard came up with a plan. They wanted to design a shoe that would still feel fast and supportive even after 100 miles of long downhill. Drawing on their wealth of experience from the running shoe industry and using ideas from skiing, surfing and cycling, the revolutionary shape of the HOKA running shoe was born. Thanks to their high degree of cushioning, low weight and propelling rocker technology, HOKA men's and women's shoes quickly became a sought-after favourite, especially among ultra runners.
Numerous athletes, such as “Speedgoat” Karl Meltzer, Jim Walmsley and Sage Canaday, have worn HOKA running shoes to great success and out into the wider world. The award-winning HOKA Clifton was one of the first shoes to change perceptions of what a running shoe can be, and HOKA has since become a household name for runners and hikers all over the world. And it’s not just any name: the word “HOKA “comes from the Maori language and means something similar to “flying over the earth”.
HOKA Trainers – Technology That Makes the Kilometres Fly By
HOKA running shoes are now synonymous with high-quality cushioning. Having become lighter, more agile as well as more durable over the years, the Hoka trainers are now offered in an array of thicknesses and heights, but always with little drop. This provides a natural running feeling and ensures contact between foot and ground, even on technically demanding trails.
HOKA calls the unique midsole they use in their running shoes the Meta-Rocker. The small difference in height between the cushioning on your forefoot and heel promotes a natural running shape and propels you forwards. Your foot is softly embedded deep in the midsole instead of directly above it. Similar to a bucket seat in racing cars, the Active Foot Frame gives your foot support and guidance without any elements that press or restrict.
The firmer foam of the J-frame gives your foot additional stability on the inside and ball of your foot, and to ensure that you always land comfortably, but can also push off quickly, the innovative Profly dual-density midsole is equipped with softer cushioning towards the heel and firmer foam towards the forefoot. On the one hand, this forgives any mistakes made when landing and, on the other hand, ensures better foot placement below your body's centre of gravity. Time to fly with HOKA.
