Customer Reviews Hoka Challenger 7

I walk 6-8 miles a day on concrete and they have held up well. Very comfortable and balanced.

Used these almost out of the box for a 10K Fell Race (4500' elevation).. in the rain! Amazing traction, amazing fit and hold on the uphill and downhill (these were STEEP SKI slopes and some bushwacking thru woods. I was amazed with their feel and performance. Didn't have to think about them once! They did exactly what I want a shoe to do for this terrain and race.

I'm one of the bigger sized running guys (down to 230 from 250 pounds) and I normally chose the HOKA Bondi X shoes which I absolutely love mainly because of their cushioning and responsiveness. BUT where I run at home, it is mostly gravel roads and pieces of gravel would get stuck in the "X" of the shoe sole. These trail shoes completely solved that problem and still offer great support and comfort. I also have a wider foot and both of these shoes are available in wide sizes.

Comfortable for daily use

I use them to officiate high school and college football. Light weight and comfortable to wear.

Wore them for the first run around the lake. Satisfied!

I have back problems and these shoes are so supportive.

Great shoe, super comfortable and excellent for working long hours on my feet.

Fits perfectly and I love the heel that allows for them to be slipped on easily.

I would love to buy it again.

These replaced my worn out Challenger 6's and the newer shoe is great. The colors pop and the 2E width accommodates my feet well.

The shoe is a perfect complement to the Stinson 7 which I use for longer recovery runs, and to the Speedgoat which I use for more aggressive trail runs.

Men's hoka Challenger 7- has some tread for traction on wet cement floors. My son is 6'3" 300lbs and this shoe is perfect for our warehouse work. You have the best stability of any shoe. This one is the 3rd i have bought for him. I love your shoes and i would advertise for you!

very good. Like the shoes

Love this shoe. When I put them on, I think I heard angels sing.

These challengers have been a breath of fresh air. New to trail running and just assumed the way my feet felt in my previous shoes was normal. Have now been on about 10 in these and my feet and knees feel 10x better

I purchased my Hoka 's to be used almost exclusively for refereeing soccer matches.On better than 60% of my matches I am on artificial turf and it is not uncommon for me to officiate three consecutive matches whereby I am on my feet for up to Five and a half hours.I have switched allegiance from Saucony (a fine shoe line) to Hoka.Aesthetically I wish that there was a leather upper available but I can overlook this detail.I have at my disposal a selection of soccer specific shoes by Adidas,and Puma that work for the occasional single game,but for prolonged activity,Hoka is the shoe for me.

These shoes are the best money can buy.

Challenger 7 is comfortable and stable

Great shoe for everyday use

I live the looks of these. I got them before heading to Vegas and thought they were a bit too snug but decided to give it a try. They worked well with all of the walking I did. Feel very supportive and just right cushioning. I have not try on a trail yet but they look more aggressive than the previous version. I am a little worried about the side material wearing as my previous version worn on the outside above the soul just under a year of use. Time will tell.

I was pleasantly surprised by how light these shoes are. I love the colors
