Women's running shoes HOKA Challenger 8 neon rose/black (1168717-NNR)
Women's running shoes HOKA Challenger 8 are designed for female runners looking for versatile footwear that performs well both on asphalt and off-road. This model allows comfortable transitions between different surfaces without the need to change shoes. Thanks to optimized cushioning and precisely selected components, it provides stability, comfort, and adequate protection during daily training or longer trail adventures.
Stable cushioning on every surface
The midsole of the women's running shoes HOKA Challenger 8 is made of lightweight CMEVA foam, which allows for even cushioning and reduces perceived overload. Compared to the previous version, a greater amount of foam has been used, resulting in higher comfort during contact with the surface. The properly shaped sole supports the natural movement of the foot, and its resilient structure works well both on hard trails and off-road. This solution improves stability and smoothness of running in variable conditions.
Multidirectional grip and durable outsole
The women's running shoes HOKA Challenger 8 are equipped with an outsole made of Durabrasion Rubber, which translates into longer durability with intensive use. 4-millimeter lugs arranged multidirectionally provide reliable traction on varied terrain, allowing safe navigation over slippery stones as well as hardened paths. The new tread pattern improves stability and rebound efficiency during faster paces.
Breathable upper made from recycled material
The women's running shoes HOKA Challenger 8 feature an upper made of lightweight, technical engineered mesh created from recycled materials. The open structure ensures free airflow, supporting thermoregulation and reducing the risk of overheating the feet. The slightly modified cut of the upper improves fit and limits foot movement inside the shoe, while the soft collar around the ankle increases comfort during longer activities.
Reinforced toe and additional support
The women's running shoes HOKA Challenger 8 are equipped with reinforcement in the front part of the upper, which improves resistance to damage and protects the toes during runs on uneven ground. The hard guard increases material durability and enables safe overcoming of obstacles on varied terrain. This solution enhances the functionality of the footwear in everyday use and proves effective during training in mixed terrain conditions.

Product Details

Practical loop for easier putting on.
The integrated loop at the heel makes it easier to quickly put on and take off the shoes. It serves as a handy grip, which is useful during outdoor training or dynamic pace changes. It's a small but very functional detail.

Durable outsole with tread.
The Durabrasion Rubber outsole stands out for its durability and grip. The 4-millimetre lugs in a multi-directional arrangement enhance traction on both terrain and asphalt, while the modified tread pattern supports stability in varied conditions.

Light mesh upper
The technical mesh upper provides lightness, breathability, and a snug fit. The open structure supports air circulation, protecting the feet from overheating during intense exertion. The material is made from recycled materials.
I love Hoka...
Another model and once again I am mega satisfied. First test behind me... Gravels, frozen grasses, compacted paths in the park, tarmac and cobbles. Uphill and downhill, the shoes handled themselves to perfection. Light, comfortable, hold the foot well.... Now I'm looking forward to spring and an Outing to the Giant Mountains??♀️
