This is the wide fit Women's Hoka Challenger 7, which has been designed to provide comfort and cushioning on mixed terrain including harder tracks and trails. The Hoka Challenger 7 will remain comfortable on part road and part trail runs, with great durability, shorter length studs and plenty of cushioning. You should get a plush, softer feel that Hoka is famous for and the engineered mesh should feel snug and secure whilst remaining highly breathable.

The heel to toe drop of the Challenger 7 is a modest 5mm, which can help encourage a more efficient midfoot landing and like all Hoka trail running shoes, has an early stage meta rocker than helps keep you moving forwards by speeding up your gait cycle.

READ CHALLENGER 7 REVIEW

Street-approved. Trail tested. Built at the intersection of road and trail, the new Challenger 7 has been completely reimagined from the ground up. Combining a simplified mesh upper with a soft new foam, we’ve increased the stack height for a plusher feel and added proprietary rubber to the bottom unit, along with a reimagined outsole design for the best all-terrain ride yet. Inspired by gravel tires, we’ve cued up smaller, tightly spaced lugs in center and larger, more aggressive lugs at the perimeter designed for improved traction on uneven terrain.
