The HOKA Speedgoat 5 GTX is a technical trail shoe that is suitable for challenging trail routes. Trail runs with many elevation meters and challenging surfaces such as muddy paths and routes with many boulders. Don't let any obstacle stop you with this reliable trail shoe! Midsole To make your runs comfortable, HOKA has added a CMEVA midsole that provides plenty of cushioning and effective protection while running. Late Stage Meta-Rocker geometry provides plenty of forefoot support as the transition zone is in front of the metatarsals. This provides more stability to the forefoot, which contributes to a better running experience. The EVA insole provides extra support where necessary and ensures a flexible fit. Upper With the Speedgoat upper you are ready for your next trail adventure. The mesh upper is comfortable and has the additional advantage that it has a ventilating function. The reinforcement at the toes protects your feet against bumps and sharp obstacles. Regardless of the planned adventure, the shoe will be protected against rain and mud by the Gore-Tex membrane. The bottom of the heel is reinforced while the top of the heel counter remains flexible, soft and comfortable. The advantage of this is that it does not create pressure on your heel bone. Outsole With an outsole with Vibram LiteBase Megagrip and Traction Lug you get the best of both worlds. It has a high-quality rubber compound that provides unparalleled grip on both dry and wet surfaces. It is also extremely durable. In addition to reducing the thickness and weight of the sole by 50%, Litebase technology also reduces weight by 30%, while maintaining grip, traction and durability. Don't let muddy and slippery surfaces hold you back with the HOKA Speedgoat 5 GTX!
