Hoka Torrent 2 Trail Running Shoes
Developed in collaboration with world-class Hoka trail athletes, the Torrent 2 is an aggressive, ultra-lightweight, low-profile trail shoe that pushes technical boundaries to help you smash records over challenging terrain.
Engineered Mesh Upper
Developed to provide lightweight comfort and maximum speed, the Hoka Torrent 2 Trail Running Shoes have been constructed using an engineered mesh. The lightweight mesh wraps the foot in breathable comfort and ensures added flexibility. Made from recycled fibres, the material will provide you with an extremely comfortable fit. The material is extremely lightweight, which contributes to the overall weight of the shoe by keeping it down. Hot air is easily able to escape through the layer of mesh, where it is then replaced by cooler air from outside of the shoe. This will mean that there will be a constant cycle working to keep your feet feeling comfortable in a controlled climate. The material is able to stretch, which will mean that in every stride that you take no matter what size it is, the material will react to it, reducing the risk of damage being caused to it. Completing the upper is a lacing system that locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.
ProFly Midsole
ProFly is a dual-density midsole made using rubberised foam that aims to give you a forgiving landing and a responsive toe-off. This has meant that Hoka has used softer cushioning in the heel and firmer foam in the forefoot to ensure you land comfortably but push off quickly. The thick material covers the whole of the foot, making sure that all areas are protected from any impact on the ground. Towards the bottom, the midsole material absorbs impacts from bumps and scrapes. Stopping it from reaching the foot, the higher layer of the midsole works to counteract these forces, which in turn provides the feet with rebound and bounce back. This will give you an extra spring in your step. The aim of ProFly was to make for an even lighter and resilient ride to support you as much as possible when you're running.
Sticky Rubber Outsole
When trail running it is imperative to have an assured footing, with difficult, unpredictable terrain often causing obstacles and challenges to your performance. The Torrent 2 boasts a sticky rubber outsole, which delivers an abundance of grip and traction to help fill you with confidence as you take on the trails. The highly durable outsole is able to maintain its high level of performance no matter what is put in its path. The long-lasting rubber looks after itself when exposed to uneven surfaces, abrasions, and scrapes. This assists with certain movements, like takeoffs, landings, and sudden changes of direction. Completing the outsole are multi-directional lugs that give you the give required to conquer all trails.
