Discover the HOKA Arahi8: Sleek, Plush, and Stabilizing

Designed for everyday runners and walkers, the HOKA Arahi8 delivers a unique balance of lightweight comfort, responsive cushioning, and advanced stability. Built for those who need moderate support without sacrificing performance or style, the Arahi8 features a streamlined design, breathable upper, and updated stabilizing technology to keep your stride smooth and secure mile after mile.

Key Features

  • H‑Frame™ Stabilisation Technology
    Evolved from previous J‑Frame™ tech, the new H‑Frame™ offers dynamic stability for overpronators without using rigid or intrusive materials. It provides guidance and support while allowing for a natural gait cycle.

  • Dual-Density CMEVA Midsole
    A combination of soft and responsive EVA foams delivers underfoot comfort with a lively feel. This balanced cushioning system ensures smooth transitions and effective shock absorption for both long runs and daily errands.

  • Breathable Jacquard Mesh Upper
    A refreshed upper made from lightweight double-jacquard mesh improves airflow, enhances comfort, and ensures a snug fit. The updated last shape also provides a more secure and dialed-in feel.

  • Performance-Focused Geometry
    With a moderate 8 mm heel-to-toe drop and a lightweight build (approx. 276 g for men), the Arahi8 encourages an efficient and responsive ride, making it suitable for both training and everyday use.

  • Durable Outsole with Reflective Detailing
    The podular outsole layout uses high-abrasion rubber for added grip and durability, while reflective elements enhance visibility during early morning or late evening runs.

Performance & Fit

  • Support Level: Designed for runners who overpronate, offering moderate stability that feels natural—not forced.

  • Ride Quality: A balance between firm responsiveness and plush comfort, ideal for various training intensities.

  • Fit & Feel: Streamlined silhouette with improved lockdown and ventilation, allowing for a comfortable yet secure fit across a range of foot types.


Why Choose the Arahi 8?

  • Effective Gait Support – Innovative H‑Frame™ tech provides structured support without compromising flexibility.

  • Balanced Cushioning – The midsole offers softness where you need it, and responsiveness where you want it.

  • Lightweight & Breathable – The redesigned upper promotes airflow and comfort for all-day wear.

  • Everyday Versatility – Ideal for running, walking, gym workouts, or long days on your feet.
