Hoka Challenger 8 Men's

Price
€150

The Hoka Challenger 8 is built at the intersection of road and trail. It delivers all the smooth cushioning and confidence-inspiring traction you’ll need to tackle a variety of terrain. A gravel-grinding workhorse loved for its hyper cushy ride, Hoka have added even more foam underfoot and improved the fit since the last iteration. Finished with a minimal mesh upper, plush collar, and durable rubber toe cap, they have also reimagined the orientation of the multi-directional lugs to ensure the best all-terrain ride yet.
