Hoka Challenger 7 GTX Womens Waterproof Trail Running Shoes Black

This the waterproof women’s Hoka Challenger 7 GTX, a fantastic trail running shoe for comfortable everyday runs in the rain, or the puddles from yesterday’s bad weather. The Challenger 7 GTX has a high level of cushioning, making it suitable for running on the road and trail and the high stack height helps absorb the lumps and bumps of the trail. The Challenger 7 GTX has a Gore-Tex upper to keep the water out and has improved traction and increased cushioning compared to the previous version. Despite the high level of cushioning and comfortable fit and feel, the Challenger 7 GTX is incredibly lightweight, weighing under 200g!

The Challenger 7 GTX has more cushioning and yet comes in lighter than the Challenger ATR 6 GTX. HOKA have also tweaked the layout of the 4mm lugs to increase grip off-road.

READ HOKA CHALLENGER 7 REVIEW

Hoka describe the Challenger 7 GTX as: “Rain or shine. Street to summit. Built at the intersection of road and trail, the Challenger 7 GTX has been completely reimagined from the ground up. Combining a simplified mesh upper with a soft new foam, we’ve increased the stack height for a plusher feel and added GORE-TEX INVISIBLE FIT with recycled content product technology for enhanced protection in inclement weather. Inspired by gravel tires, we’ve cued up smaller, tightly spaced lugs in center and larger, more aggressive lugs at the perimeter designed for improved traction on uneven terrain.”
