Whether you like walking or running, indoors or out, you need the right shoes. Not all are made alike, so what’s perfect for you completely depends on your go-to exercise routine, gait and general preferences. That’s why I love Hoka shoes—a brand I have tested time and time again. There’s so much attention to detail that you genuinely feel all of the subtle differences between each and every model offered. They’re also one of the most durable brands I have tried—the shoes tend to maintain their quality even after months of constant wear.
All that to say: They’re worth the investment. Hoka shoes are popular for a reason—the brand doesn’t often cut prices on some of its best options, but right now, we found some new (and exclusive) markdowns hiding in its sale section. Shop pairs like the Kawana 2 and the Mach 6 while they’re discounted.
Best Hoka Shoes on Sale
Hoka Kawana 2 Shoe
Hoka
Before I got super into walking, I was specifically looking for gym and training shoes. I wanted to try a pair of Hoka shoes—at the time, they were going viral. The nifty quiz took me to the Kawana, and my first Hoka purchase was born! I loved these shoes because they have cushions to absorb impact, but they were flat enough to use with weights and machines. The second version has an evolved design with a lightweight single-layer upper and a durable rubber sole that was made to keep you stable even during sideways movement.
Hoka Transport Shoe
Hoka
The Transport blends the comfort and efficiency of Hoka’s running shoes with the style of streetwear. They’re made to be worn for all-day comfort, with a light cushion and a scuff-resistant upper—a key factor for walking around. Shop them in a rich eggplant, a soft pink or a neutral light tan shade.
Hoka Anacapa 2 Low GTX Shoe
Hoka
Hit the trail in style and comfort with the Anacapa 2 Low GTX shoe. These are ankle-high hiking shoes, so they’re great for folks who prefer an airy fit and feel. They include the brand’s waterproof exterior, which is important during rainy fall weather. Despite their durable design, these shoes are comfortable and breathable for long adventures.
Hoka Mach 6 Shoe
Hoka
Writer Liv Dansky’s father-in-law has been a practicing podiatrist for over 40 years, and he recommends the Mach 6 the most over any other shoe. It has the perfect mixture of support and softness in a very lightweight frame. The foam midsole is another factor he appreciates, as it improves the shoe’s responsiveness for peppier walks. Combined with a breathable upper, it’s an excellent sneaker for many people.
Hoka Rincon 4 Shoe
Hoka
If you want to run without even feeling your shoes on your feet, the Rincon 4 is your best bet. This is the brand’s popular option for an optimal cushion with a feather-light body—a tough combination to come by. The fourth model in the line was designed to maintain its core features, but last longer than its previous counterparts.
Hoka Solimar Shoe
Hoka
Another gym and training option, the Solimar is just $100 right now in select colors, making it an excellent price. These are great for folks who need extra Achilles support—the back of the shoe is anatomically designed to cradle the heel.
Hoka Speedgoat 6 Shoe
Hoka
For folks who hike on highly rugged, uneven and rocky terrain, the right shoe makes all the difference. The Speedgoat 6 is just the ticket, thanks to its grippy sole that keeps your steps in check no matter how uncontrolled your trail is. The footbed of the shoe has added support to aid your steps as your foot hits the ground, and the midsole was updated to be more responsive for seamless walks and runs this fall.
