HOKA Running Shoe Technology

HOKA’s advanced technology makes you fly through your runs. Here is a breakdown of some of that technology.

CUSHIONED MIDSOLE

Ultralight and endlessly cushioned, HOKA midsoles offer shock absorption, comfort and support in varying degrees of thickness.

META-ROCKER

The meta-rocker is the rounded shape of the midsole of HOKA running shoes. It is designed to drive runners forward by complementing the natural gait cycle and reducing the height differential between heel and toe. It helps to make the heel-to-toe transitions quicker and smoother.

ACTIVE FOOT FRAME

The active foot frame works like a bucket seat in a racecar, it cradles the heel and places the foot securely into the midsole.

STABILITY

Hoka uses two unobtrusive features in their stability shoes: an Active Foot Frame and J-Frame. As mentioned above the Active Foot Frame cradles your feet in place and drops you deeper into the midsole. Beneath the footbed, the HOKA J-Frame employs a higher density foam to give medial support without the use of plastic or posts.
