Hoka Gaviota 5 Women's Running Shoes
Forget what you thought you knew about stability shoes. The Gaviota 5's new stabilizing H-Frame has allowed Hoka to implement softer foams than ever before.
Creel Jacquard Mesh Upper
Constructed using a breathable creel jacquard mesh fabric, the uppers of the Gaviota Running Shoes provide feet with a cosy, comfortable experience. Not only will they provide you a sock-like, secure fit, but the shoes will also ensure an optimal level of air can flow through the shoes, in order to create a breathable, cool experience for feet to thrive. The shoes have recycled Polyester laces for a traditional, yet sustainable lace-up construction to help the feet remain locked in and secure, therefore preventing in-shoe slippage from occurring. Preventing irritation and abrasion from occurring, the shoes have a plush collar and single-sided tongue gusset, offering improvements in comfort to their predecessors. A heel pull tab provides you assistance with putting on the shoes and completing the upper is a traditional lacing system which helps to lock the midfoot to prevent excessive movement.
EVA Midsole
To provide you plush, comfortable cushioning and exceptional support and stability, the Gaviota 5's have H-Frame technology. A full-length platform of EVA resides underfoot for lightweight, responsive cushioning. Generous, soft and durable, it spares your joints as you strike down on hard, unforgiving surfaces. The H-Frame technology sits inside the foam and delivers a stable platform for those looking to prevent and combat over-pronation by using firmer foam on the medial side of the short, in combination with additional rubber for durability for a comfortable, confident running experience. Alongside this, the shoes have a late-stage Meta-Rocker for a smooth ride and additional forefoot support.
Durable Rubber Outsole
Enhancing underfoot stability and traction on varied terrain, the Hoka Gaviota 5's have a durable rubber outsole. The shoes' high-wear rubber compound helps to ensure the shoes have exceptional durability and will provide you with grip throughout your run on multiple surfaces.
