HOKA - Challenger 8 GTX - Trail running shoes

Loose trails and high-traction tarmac

If your training starts where the tarmac ends, the Challenger 8 GTX from HOKA can offer you their full versatility. These trail running shoes combine the smooth ride of road-running shoes with the surefootedness of trail-running shoes. Thanks to the GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane, they stay reliably dry even in rain showers and on wet surfaces.

Comfortable and safe on long journeys

A revised EVA midsole with greater cushioning provides noticeably more comfort on long distances, while the newly arranged 4 mm lug tread offers secure grip on changing terrain. In addition, the lightweight, breathable mesh upper made from recycled polyester ensures that weight is kept to a minimum, while also providing a comfortable foot climate, as well as being durable enough for daily training laps. Meanwhile, reflective details increase your visibility in low light conditions.

Whether it's a park circuit, dirt track or forest trail, these shoes allow you to run with freedom.
