Summary

The Hoka Arahi 8 is a stability running shoe designed to provide support for runners who overpronate, offering a secure and cushioned ride without the bulk typically associated with stability footwear. It features Hoka's enhanced H-Frame™ technology for combating overpronation and ensuring smooth gait cycle transitions. The Arahi 8 combines a breathable double jacquard mesh upper with a dual-density compression-molded EVA midsole for balanced cushioning. In Hoka's lineup, it serves as the stability counterpart to the neutral Clifton series, offering similar cushioning and responsiveness with added support. The Arahi 8 is lighter and more versatile compared to the Bondi, making it suitable for runners seeking a blend of support and agility.
