Experience a breakthrough in lightweight, structured stability with the Hoka Arahi 8—a sleek, supportive road-running shoe designed to deliver comfort, control, and confidence mile after mile.
Dynamic and Unobtrusive Stability: The core benefit of the Arahi 8 is its stability without the "clunky" feel often associated with traditional support shoes. It features Hoka's new H-Frame™ technology (an evolution of the J-Frame™ in previous models). This "H"-shaped structure of firmer foam is built into the midsole, cradling the foot on both the medial and lateral sides. It works to prevent excessive inward roll (overpronation) without over-correcting the runner's natural gait, making the support feel subtle and integrated.
Balanced Cushioning: The Arahi 8 strikes a great balance between plush cushioning and a responsive ride. It uses a dual-density compression-molded EVA foam that's softer than its predecessor, providing a cushioned feel underfoot for comfort on long runs and daily training. However, it's not as soft as the Bondi, offering a more balanced and efficient feel for those who want a bit more ground feedback and responsiveness.
Smooth and Efficient Ride: The shoe incorporates Hoka's early-stage Meta-Rocker geometry. This curved sole design helps to propel the runner forward, promoting a quick and smooth transition from landing to toe-off. This reduces braking forces and helps to maintain a consistent, efficient cadence, which is particularly beneficial for longer distances.
Comfortable and Secure Fit: The Arahi 8 features a redesigned, streamlined silhouette with a new last for an improved fit. The double jacquard mesh upper is breathable and offers a secure lockdown. The shoe also has an accommodating toe box, which is great for runners who need a little extra room, especially as their feet swell on longer runs.
Lightweight for a Stability Shoe: The Arahi 8's design, which integrates stability within the midsole, allows it to be surprisingly lightweight for a stability shoe. This makes it a great choice for runners who need support but don't want the extra weight that can sometimes accompany it, enabling them to feel agile and light on their feet.
H-Frame™ Stability System: Replacing traditional support structures, the H-Frame wraps the heel and both sides of the foot to guide gait and reduce overpronation without adding weight or stiffness.
Dual-Density CMEVA Midsole: Offers a balanced ride with soft cushioning underfoot and firmer foam for added support, creating a smooth, stable transition from heel to toe.
Low-Profile, Responsive Ride: With an 8 mm heel-to-toe drop, the Arahi 8 encourages natural movement and quick toe-offs.
Plush Heel Cushioning: Enhanced foam in the heel area improves impact absorption for a softer, more forgiving landing.
Double Jacquard Mesh: Made from recycled materials, this upper is lightweight, breathable, and engineered for precise lockdown and foot-hugging comfort.
Streamlined Fit: Refined construction reduces bulk while maintaining a secure, performance-ready shape for all-day wear.
Zoned Rubber Outsole: Strategically placed for high-wear areas, the outsole delivers reliable traction and extended durability on pavement and city streets.
Podular Design: Enhances ground contact and flexibility for a more adaptive running experience.
APMA Seal of Acceptance: Recognized for promoting foot health and biomechanical efficiency, making it a top choice for runners needing structured support.
