Hoka Gaviota Running Shoes
An all-new premium stability shoe, the Gaviota features superior cushioning along with Hoka's J-Frame technology. The HOKA J-Frame delivers support and protection while guiding your foot without the use of rigid and unforgiving materials. Enhanced by proprietary EVA/Rubber blend RMAT - the shoe lends added durability to high wear areas. The Gaviota is an ideal shoe for the runner who wants to shake off the constrictions of traditional support shoes.
Arch-Lock Upper
The Hoka Gaviota is made with Arch-Locking wings around the midfoot area of the shoe which helps to securely hold the foot in place and offer support as well as comfort for a stable and supportive wear. A 3D Puff Print Frame has been added around the upper of the foot which is made from a superbly lightweight material to offer additional support to the foot and helping to prevent discomfort and possible injury which could be caused by the foot rolling too far. A Moulded Ortholite Sockliner has been added inside the shoe to offer additional cushioning under the foot for a comfortable wear.
Meta-Rocker Midsole
The midsole of the Hoka Gaviota has been constructed with a Late Stage Meta-Rocker which encourages the foot to move through the natural gait cycle smoothly, helping to prevent injury and discomfort and allowing the foot to smoothly roll from impact at the heel through to toe-off. The Hoka specific midsole feature J-Frame has been used in the Gaviota's midsole as it helps to support the foot as well as help with rebound and offers durability to the cushioning under the foot.
Zonal Rubber Outsole
A Moderate Heel Bevel has been added to the outsole which helps to guide the foot into a natural position as the heel meets the foot and begins to roll through the gait cycle, helping to offer a smooth and effective transition. Zonal rubber has been added to key areas of the outsole which is superbly durable to keep the shoe grip in good condition for longer.
