GORE-TEX Upper

To ensure your feet are dry and comfortable on the trail, the Hoka Challenger 7 GTX Trail Running Shoes utilise a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit that uses recycled contents, for a pair of shoes that will keep your feet protected in inclement weather conditions, yet are also sustainably made. Additionally, the shoes utilise an engineered mesh construction through the uppers. The mesh will work to keep you feeling ventilated and comfortable no matter what.

This lightweight upper allows you to improve your times, as well as gives you complete freedom. A comfortable heel cap fits snugly around your heel, providing a soft feel with a close fit. The secure lacing will allow you to secure the fit of the shoes for a personalised fit. The tongue is flat-lying, which will sit comfortably on the ankle, preventing it from causing any irritation by rubbing and chafing. An extended heel pull offers easy entry.

CMEVA Midsole

The Challenger 7 continues to offer a high cushion-to-weight ratio with a lightweight, compression-moulded EVA midsole that delivers non-stop comfort and a plush underfoot feel designed to help each stride feel more comfortable than the last. The compression moulded EVA absorbs impact forces and creates a stable landing so you can run further for longer in comfort and protection ensuring the wear and tear placed on your joints are kept to a minimum. Although lighter than the last iteration, the Challenger 7 features an increased stack height to offer even more added cushion.

Durabrasion Rubber Outsole

Designed for road focused-all terrain running, the rubber compound extends rubber longevity. 4mm lugs provide traction on a variety of surfaces; strategically placed with an improved lug pattern along the outsole the 4mm lugs provide a full, unrestricted range of motion in all directions and much need flexibility to bolster comfort and performance in equal measures. The updated lug pattern delivers a smoother ride on the road without sacrificing its trail traction, meaning that the Challenger 7 provides stability on a variety of terrain, making it the perfect all-purpose trail shoe.
