With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

The Hoka Gaviota 6 is a premium, max-cushion road running shoe designed to redefine what a stability shoe can be. It combines the legendary plushness of the Hoka Bondi with advanced support technology to keep you moving smoothly, whether you're a high-mileage runner or someone who spends all day on their feet.
The Gaviota 6 is the ultimate choice for:
Overpronators: Runners who need significant support to prevent their feet from rolling inward.
Heavier Runners: Those who require a durable, high-stack platform that won't "bottom out" over time.
Workers on their feet: Healthcare professionals, retail workers, and anyone standing on hard surfaces for long shifts.
Wide-foot athletes: Known for its accommodating fit, it is one of the roomiest stability shoes on the market and is available in Wide and Extra Wide.
Daily Training: Perfect for easy-paced miles where comfort and protection are the priority.
Recovery Runs: The massive cushioning and stable base help protect tired legs.
Long Distances: Engineered to maintain its supportive feel from the first mile to the marathon finish line.
Walking & Lifestyle: A sleek, breathable design that transitions effortlessly from a morning walk to all-day wear.
Stability Tech: Enhanced H-Frame™ – A specialized foam frame that provides medial and lateral support without the "stiff" feel of traditional motion-control posts.
Cushioning: Compression-Molded EVA (CMEVA) – Delivers a plush, responsive, and protective ride.
Upper: Engineered Mesh & Ghillie Lacing – A new internal lacing system creates a "seatbelt" effect for a secure, locked-in fit, while the mesh ensures maximum breathability.
Geometry: Early Stage MetaRocker™ – Designed to encourage a smooth heel-to-toe transition and reduce effort at toe-off.
Weight: Men’s ~291g (10.2 oz) | Women’s ~244g (8.6 oz) — approximately 30g lighter than the previous version.
Heel-to-Toe Drop: 6mm (39mm heel / 33mm forefoot).
Outsole: Zonal high-abrasion rubber for long-lasting durability and grip.
The Hoka Gaviota 6 is a "max-stability, max-cushion" workhorse that manages to feel lighter and more agile than its predecessor. By replacing rigid stability posts with the innovative H-Frame™ and updating the fit with a plush comfort collar and ghillie lacing, Hoka has created a shoe that offers world-class support without sacrificing the signature "cloud-like" feel. It’s the perfect blend of safety and softness for those who need a little extra help staying centered.
