Hoka Stinson ATR 5 Trail Running Shoes
With an updated fit and more refined toe box, the Hoka Stinson ATR 5 Trail Running Shoes provides versatile performance on a wide range of terrain. With improvements to the cushioning and the durability of the shoe, it will keep you going for longer.
Breathbale Mesh Upper
The upper unit of the Stinson ATR 4 gives maximum breathability through its air mesh upper. The lightweight air mesh material allows optimal airflow, keeping the feet cool and dry. An updated and more refined toe box will give your feet more room to expand on longer runs, which will improve comfort and reduce fatigue. Covering the toes, there is a reinforced cap which will improve the durability as well as providing protection from heavy shocks and impacts. A moulded sockliner further enhances the comfort of the upper as well as guarding against irritation such as chafing which can cause distractions to your run. Arch-lock wings in the upper works to construct a midfoot capture and provide support to give you the best platform to achieve your best results and performance.
CMEVA Midsole
The full-length Compression Moulded EVA is placed in the midsole, providing impressive cushioning, added stability and increased impact protection. The midsole of the Stinson ATR 4 also uses the Active Foot Frame technology to increase responsiveness and feedback by allowing the foot to sit deep into the midsole. This has made the shoe highly adaptable to a wide range of running styles and foot shapes.
Hoka's Meta-Rocker midsole geometry is specifically designed with a low heel-toe differential and a sculptured outsole to create a unique fulcrum effect, like a rocking chair, to encourage a guided gait cycle. This design supports the runner's natural form while promoting an efficient, smooth roll from initial impact to toe-off. Styles with a Late-Stage Meta-Rocker have the transition zone placed in front of the metatarsal heads, which provides a more stable base of forefoot support.
Podular Outsole Design
The podular outsole design is primarily functioned to provide stability, especially on difficult and unpredictable terrain such as trail running. Having the stability on uneven terrain will enable you to run with confidence and style knowing your body will be secure and the potential risk of injury or strain should be diminished in the process. 4mm lugs provide all-terrain traction to give you the grip required to conquer the trail.
