HOKA Speedgoat 5 vs Challenger 7 - Technical trails vs All-terrain

Описание: Discover how the HOKA Speedgoat 5 compares to the HOKA Challenger 7 in terms of grip, cushioning and fit, so you can choose the best option for your trail running adventures.

While both shoes offer similar levels of cushioning and protection, there’s a distinct difference when it comes to grip. The Speedgoat 5 has a Vibram Megagrip Traction Lug outsole (while the Challenger 7 features HOKA’s own outsole rubber), meaning the Speedgoat performs much better on technical surfaces, looser rock, mud and steeper slopes.

The slightly softer and more forgiving feeling Challenger excels on harder ground, making it an ideal door-to-trail shoe for those doing a mixture of road and trail running.

If you’re big into trail running and interchanging between rolling terrain and remote areas of technical difficulty in your training, there’s definitely a place for both the Speedgoat and Challenger in your shoe rotation.
