Hoka changed running by proving that a very cushioned shoe could also be light and fast. Today the brand is everywhere, on the road, on the trails and in the street. At COLLECT Running, our running store in El Born, Hoka is one of the brands runners ask us about the most. Here is how to find your model.
The Hoka philosophy
Hoka is known for maximal cushioning and a rocker geometry that helps the foot roll forward. The result: comfort that protects the legs, especially on long runs and long days.
Road running: Clifton, Bondi, Skyflow
Hoka Clifton
The Hoka Clifton is the brand's most popular daily trainer: light, soft and versatile. It suits beginners and experienced runners alike. Try the Clifton 10 White or the Clifton 10 Putty.
Hoka Bondi
The Hoka Bondi is the most cushioned model: perfect for easy runs, recovery days, and also for people who spend all day on their feet.
Hoka Skyflow
The Skyflow offers a smooth, cushioned ride for daily training, between the Clifton and the Bondi.
Trail running: Speedgoat and Mafate
Off-road, the Hoka Speedgoat is a reference for long distances, combining grip and cushioning. The Mafate Speed 4 Lite brings the trail DNA to a versatile, street-ready shoe.
