This is the men’s Hoka Torrent 3, a trail running shoe designed to feel nimble and fast across mixed trail terrain. The Torrent 3 does this by using the PROFLY™ midsole, which will still feel cushioned on landing, but should feel a little more ‘snappy’ on toe-off. The upper of the Torrent 3 has been stripped back for an extra lightweight feel, yet stuff snug and supportive.
The early stage meta rocker in Hoka running shoes is essentially a curvature that encourages you to be quicker through the gait cycle, which often has our customer describing Hoka running shoes as “feeling fast”. This is almost certainly down to the meta rocker.

READ OUR REVIEW
HOKA describe the men’s Torrent 3 as: “Fast. Fluid. Fun. Utilizing the same PROFLY™ midsole construction for forgiving landings and propulsive toe-offs, the Torrent 3 has been reimagined with a stripped back upper. Pared down from double to single layer engineered mesh, breathable high-performance yarn is joined by a TPU overlay for extra support and a new rubber outsole that’s stickier and more durable than the last iteration.”
