Hoka Arahi 8 Women's Running Shoes Rose Alabaster/Lingonberry

The women’s Arahi 8 is the latest in this line of support shoe from Hoka. Using softer materials than the Arahi 7, to aid comfort, the Arahi 8 also has a higher heel-to-forefoot drop of 8mm (increased from 5mm) providing even more cushioning under the rearfoot (which may appeal to heel strikers), yet this shoe still promises to provide a stable, secure ride.  Hoka have implemented their new H-frame™ technology, a stabilising support system designed to correct overpronation and encourage a smooth forward roll in the gait cycle.

Other new features include a new last and a sleek double jacquard mesh upper to deliver a streamlined stability shoe.  With a dual density compression moulded EVA foam midsole, the Arahi 8 offers protective cushioning for when your foot strikes, while maintaining a responsive toe-off for when you want to pick up the pace and increase your speed. The balanced and responsive cushioning delivers a smooth, efficient ride, while the innovative design and super abrasion rubber of the outsole provide reliable, durable traction.
