Hoka Speedgoat 7 Hike GORE-TEX Men's Hiking Shoes

Built on the lightweight, responsive base of its cult-favourite namesake, the Speedgoat 7 Hike GORE-TEX jacks up durability and weather protection while staying true to the ride of the original. Designed for thru hiking and fastpacking, this hybrid style brings all the comfort and agility of a trail runner.

Kevlar Yarn Upper with GORE-TEX Invisible Fit

For unbeatable durability, Kevlar yarn makes up the upper of the Speedgoat 7 Hike. This textile has been implemented into the design to offer lightweight protection against possible snags and bumps on unpredictable paths. A GORE-TEX Invisible Fit waterproof membrane works in tandem with the Kevlar to add complete waterproofing to the design, making a perfect hiking shoe to keep feet dry in heavy downpours. A dynamic vamp is included to enhance comfort while also improving stability on uneven surfaces, thanks to a greater toe splay. A padded mobility collar also works to support the foot while effectively blocking dirt and debris from getting in, while the traditional lacing system tightens up and secures the fit for complete midfoot lockdown. Heel pull webbing loops can be found on the heel of either shoe, streamlining the fit for quick lace-ups. Finally, reflective details have been added to the shoes for improved visibility in low-light conditions.

Supercritical EVA Midsole

The Speedgoat 7 Hike features a supercritical EVA midsole, delivering the responsive feel associated with trail running shoes alongside the protective cushioning typical of walking shoes, resulting in a well-balanced combination. While covering ground with purpose, shock is absorbed by the foam, dissipating direct impact and protecting your joints and feet from injury on unforgiving terrains. The foam is super lightweight for distraction-free wear as well as highly durable against everyday wear and tear for continuous use for miles to come.

Vibram Megagrip Outsole

Completing the Speedgoat 7 Hike is a Vibram Megagrip outsole, expertly crafted from high-quality Vibram rubber to offer you reliable grip and traction over forever-changing surfaces. This high-performance outsole provides you with an unparalleled grip on both wet and dry surfaces, rugged longevity, and optimal ground adaptability. The rubber forms a solid bond with the ground beneath it, ensuring traction and control as you explore the unbeaten path. Traction lugs have an updated orientation, ensuring an easy bite down into soft surfaces, and have been designed for reliable use over mixed terrains.
