Hoka Mach 3 Running Shoes

With an eye toward performance, the Mach 3 continues to deliver responsive cushion in an extremely lightweight package. Now featuring an engineered jacquard upper, the Mach 3 has a speed-inspired design and improved midfoot lockdown thanks to more durable fabric. This shoe provides fast cushion that'll help you push the pace on training runs or race day.

Engineered Jacquard Mesh Upper

Constructed with an open, engineered mesh the Hoka Mach 3 offers a secure fit that hugs the foot for optimum comfort, flexibility and breathability. By allowing cool air to flow throughout the upper, the Mach removes an uncomfortable heat build up to ensure a healthy environment for the feet to thrive in. Striking the perfect balance between support and flexibility the engineered upper allows the foot to flex naturally whilst still providing a snug and comfortable fit. The mesh upper works to improve structure and provide midfoot lockdown by working with the lacing system to ensure a supportive fit. The traditional lacing system works to lock down the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free stirdes. Completing the upper is a lightweight tongue which feature breathable cutouts. The tongue sits comfortably against the skin to reduce the risks of chafing and irritation whilst also providing ample ventilation so you can remain cool, dry and comfortable at all times.

ProFly Midsole

Developed using Hoka's signature ProFly midsole technology, the Mach 3 Running Shoes keep the feet comfortable and supported at all times. PROFLY is a dual-density midsole made using rubberised foam that aims to give you a forgiving landing and a responsive toe off. This has meant that HOKA have used softer cushioning in the heel and a firmer foam in the forefoot to ensure you land comfortable but push off quickly. PROFLY attenuates shock to reduce the impact placed upon the joints, thus minimising the potential risk of injury or discomfort. The cushioning is firmer in the forefoot for propulsion and energy return, creating additional responsiveness to improve your performance. The aim of PROFLY was to make for an even lighter and resilient ride to support you as much as possible when you're running. As well as this, an early-stage Meta-Rocker geometry is applied in the midsole to increase running efficiency. Meta-Rocker midsole geometry is specifically designed with a low heel-toe differential and a sculpted outsole to create a unique fulcrum effect, like a rocking chair to encourage a guided gait cycle. This design supports a runner's natural form while promoting an efficient, smooth roll from initial impact to toe off. The midsole ensures a smooth ride from the moment you step in till the moment you step out.

Rubberised Foam Outsole

A flexible and durable outsole complete the Mach 3. Rubberised foam is used to enhance responsiveness, increases traction and ensure high rebound cushioning. The foam outsole ensures lightweight responsiveness so you can go further for longer which a shoe you can truly rely on. The durable rubber outsole will keep you in firm control across a wide range of different terrain over a long period of time. Forming a solid bond with the ground, the outsole will anchor you into place, keeping you in a strong and controlled position. The Mach's sole also helps to eliminate excess rubber on the outsole which in turn reduces overall weight.

Who Are HOKA One One

Hoka One One is the brainchild of two gravity sports enthusiasts Jean-Luc Diard and Nicolas Mermoud. Both men have been adventuring for as long as they can remember, and their trail running experiences have taken them across the globe. Both Jean-Luc and Nicolas are committed to the values of freedom and enjoyment and feel that this is part of the running experience whether running on the trail or in the city. With this in mind they started to look at the variables that affected the performance of different types of runners. They quickly came to an important conclusion; fatigue, impacts and muscle strains were challenges that runners of all stripes had to deal with every day. So Jean-Luc and Nicolas came up with a brilliant idea, why not design a shoe that would help to alleviate these problems - so that freedom and enjoyment could be guaranteed every time you go running! From that idea Hoka One One was born. The word Hoka is derived from the ancient Maori language and roughly translated to "now it is time to fly". That's just how it feels to run in a pair of Hoka One One shoes; with each and every step, your foot flies. Today's runners from around the world are learning about the benefits of Hoka One One, they have been used by marathon winners. 50 miles, 100 miles and even 2000+ miles ultra-runners as well as runners just like you or I, who want to enjoy running, perform at their peak and feel that important sense of freedom whilst maintaining top physical performance and protecting against shocks, jolts and injuries. So put your best foot forward, it's time to fly!
