Hoka Challenger 8 Wide Women's Trail Running Shoes Stucco/Asphalt Grey
Description
The women’s Hoka Challenger 8 in wide-fit is a versatile shoe designed to meet the challenges of gravel trails, rocky inclines and steep slopes – while also performing on roads and pavements. The shoe’s versatility comes from the ideal combination of plush cushioning, a grippy outsole and, most importantly, impressively durable lugs that don't wear down quickly on hard packed trails or pavements.
The lightweight construction and comfortable fit, will appeal to a wide range of runners, who are looking for a cushioned, yet responsive, ride without sacrificing ground feel or stability. The Challenge 8 strikes the ideal balance of providing protective cushioning while maintaining a responsive toe-off for when you want to pick up the pace.
Enhancing its renowned plush cushioning with even more foam in the midsole, the Challenger 8 has also increased the heel-to-forefoot drop, raising it to 8mm (from 5mm). While this may appeal to heel strikers, it might come as a bit of a surprise to loyal Challenger wearers. Thanks to the improved fit, plush collar, durable 3D printed rubber toe cap and a lightweight breathable mesh upper, the Challenger 8 delivers all-round comfort.
