The men’s Hoka Challenger 7 features Hoka's legendary cushioning that thousands of runners enjoy and combines it with a multidirectional lug outsole that’s designed to grip mainly dry, mixed terrain in an attempt to leave the runner feeling confident over steep inclines, rocky slopes, and winding trails all the same.

Plus, the Challenger 7 is best suited to road to trail I.E. longer parts of hard ground/tarmac due to its level of cushioning and more durable lugs. A Meta-Rocker geometry ensures a smooth and efficient stride and its breathable mesh upper keeps your feet cool when you start working hard.

Hoka describe the men's Challenger 7 as: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.
