Hoka is the king of cushion, and these 11 shoes show what a plush ride can do for any run.
Mermoud and Diard developed their shoes around a few basic principles: adding more cushioning, using light materials, and creating a wide rocker midsole to help preserve momentum and create a smoother ride. The shoes were initially marketed to trail runners, but they’re now are available as road shoes and even track spikes.
Other key Hoka design traits include Meta-Rocker and Active Foot Frame, both of which have been found on nearly all of the company’s shoes since its founding. Meta-Rocker is a combination of a low heel-toe drop and a rounded sole shape that complements your natural stride and helps propel you forward. Active Foot Frame is a design technique in which your heel and foot actually sit within the midsole, instead of on top of it.
The shoes below are the top running models from Hoka available right now. To pick them, we reached out to Hoka brand reps to get more information on what’s new and notable, perused existingreviews, and used our knowledge of the running market to parse out the most important kicks. We also aimed to include shoes for a wide variety of runners and running styles, so there’s something for everyone here.
