M Challenger 8

Features

Built at the intersection of road and trail, the Challenger 8 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, the team at Hoka added even more foam underfoot and improved the fit since their last iteration. Finished with a minimal mesh upper, plush collar, and durable rubber toe cap, they’ve reimagined the orientation of our multi-directional lugs to ensure the best all-terrain ride yet.

What's New? — You’ll find a new last with increased drop and improved fit in the forefoot and instep. Hoka also amplified the traction with an updated lug design.
