HOKA Challenger ATR 7 Trail running shoes

Hoka Challenger ATR (ATR - 'all terrain') represents a more "racing" version of Hoka shoes, designed for running in nature across various terrains (paved roads, gravel, forest trails). In its seventh iteration, it further solidifies its reputation as an excellent all-around running shoe. Its midsole geometry allows it to be fast and light on forest trails while remaining smooth and very comfortable on the road. Redesigned from the ground up, including the upper part of the shoe, where a simplified mesh is used for optimal breathability. The midsole is made of a new, pleasantly soft foam. To enhance comfort and softness, the entire shoe is raised by 2mm. The outer sole is equipped with durable Durabrasion rubber, which performs well on asphalt and even better in natural environments. The redesigned outer sole design of the Challenger 7 enhances your running experience even further.

A distinctive feature of Hoka running shoes is their meta-rocker geometry sole, designed to facilitate a smoother transfer of energy from heel to toe. Its unique shape, with a smaller difference in height between the heel and toe areas, enables a fulcrum effect, acting like a rocking chair, reducing energy loss and allowing for longer enjoyment of the run. The Challenger ATR 6 is a running shoe for all types of terrain, not just looking fast but being fast. The shoe is suitable for those with neutral feet or supinators.
