Torsional stability systems limit midfoot twist to under 5 degrees on uneven surfaces, trail runner vs running shoe.
The HOKA Speedgoat 6 is back, aiming to be the ultimate trail running shoe for everyone and any trail. Delivering the quintessential HOKA experience with high cushioning levels and confidence-inspiring traction, this shoe is versatile enough to meet the needs of trail runners, hikers, and ultramarathon athletes.
Named after world-renowned ultrarunner Karl Meltzer, the Speedgoat series has always excelled by combining a thick layer of foam and stellar outsole grip in a lightweight package. The Speedgoat 6 builds on this legacy with key updates for enhanced performance. The refined CMEVA midsole foam offers a more nimble feel, while the updated internal chassis provides added stability on rough terrain.
The outsole features a revised lug orientation inspired by a goats hoof, ensuring superior traction and stability. Retaining its superb Vibram Megagrip rubber with Traction Lug technology, the lug shape now includes micro-serrations for increased surface area and grip. The durable woven mesh upper secures the foot while being faster drying and lighter in weight. A plusher lay-flat dual-gusseted tongue and heel loop pull enhance the shoe's comfort and refinement.
Overall, the Speedgoat 6 is slightly lighter than its predecessor and is ready to be your trusted, highly cushioned companion for all your daily miles and adventures.
