A Road or Trail Shoe Built for Maximized Comfort, Traction, and Durability

The updated HOKA Challenger 8 bridges the gap between road and trail while introducing even more cushioning underfoot. An increased stack height of compression-molded EVA foam makes up the midsole to deliver comfortably smooth transitions. Run confidently thanks to the combination of a Durabrasion rubber outsole and multi-directional 4mm lugs. These two technologies work together to enhance overall traction and durability, allowing you to adapt to any terrain.

The Challenger 8 surrounds your foot with an engineered mesh upper, cushioned collar, and strong rubber toe cap. A minimal mesh upper helps your feet to stay cool on runs thanks to the enhanced breathability and airflow. The extended heel pull allows for easy entry while the cushioned collar comfortably wraps your ankle. This updated hybrid shoe brings heightened comfort and traction to any terrain.

Already falling apart

Initially it was great - bought them a month ago and the bottom is already falling apart.
