Virtual Experience:

Please note that this women's style has updated sizing. We recommend going down half a size in EU from your usual HOKA size. For instance, if you typically wear a 38 2/3 in Clifton or Bondi, try a 38 now. If you're new to HOKA, stick with your usual size. Happy running!

The Rundown

Rain or shine. Street to summit.
Like that running buddy who never bails, the Challenger 8 GORE-TEX says yes to the road, yes to the trail—and yes to rain, mud and snow. Redesigned with more foam underfoot, an improved fit and reimagined multi-directional lug orientation, it’s both smooth on the pavement and trustworthy on dirt. And its GORE-TEX Invisible Fit waterproof membrane means it doesn’t balk at puddles, either. Guess you’re out of excuses.

Stability

The Challenger 8 GORE-TEX contains our J-Frame(TM) technology designed to prevent excessive inward roll, or overpronation, without overcorrecting your gait.

The Challenger 8 GORE-TEX contains features that make the shoe inherently stable, such as a wide base and our Active Foot Frame, for a moderate amount of stability that is still designed to work for neutral gaits.

The Challenger 8 GORE-TEX features a symmetrical bed of cushion without additional prescriptive technologies. Designed to provide the support you want and nothing you don't.
