The popular HOKA Arahi stability running shoes return with the Arahi 8, featuring thoughtful updates that build on the success of the Arahi 7. The latest version introduces a new last for an improved fit, a sleeker silhouette, and a patent-pending enhanced H-Frame™ for a more supportive and cushioned experience - all while maintaining the lightweight ride the Arahi line is known for. If you’ve been running in the Arahi 7, you’ll notice familiar comfort in the underfoot feel. The cushioning system is still built around HOKA’s reliable compression-moulded EVA foam, but now integrates a softer foam within the dual-density H-Frame™ construction. This innovative H-shaped structure helps guide the foot through the gait cycle, offering intuitive support without relying on stiff or rigid components. The Arahi 8's open “H” frame design enables a smoother transition through the stride, particularly enhancing support along the medial side of the foot. At the same time, the crossbar section of the H-Frame™ helps reduce torsional movement (twisting) for better control - without overcorrecting your natural motion. These updates make the Arahi 8 ideal for runners who need stability without sacrificing softness and comfort. The upper has also been redesigned with a new last and a more streamlined look. Updates from the previous edition - like the flat-knit upper, plusher tongue, and tongue gussets - are retained to ensure a secure midfoot fit and improved lockdown. These thoughtful refinements make the Arahi 8 feel dialed-in right out of the box. Like previous versions, the Arahi 8 is best suited for easy to steady-paced runs. HOKA’s Meta-Rocker™ technology rolls your feet forward at landing and smooths out transitions. This technology also has the added benefit of helping reduce the load on your lower leg area. The Arahi is a great option for longer distances or recovery days when your legs need a bit more support. We continue to place the Arahi in our Float Experience category because of its soft landings, stable platform, and easy-rolling ride. Additionally, HOKA’s signature Meta-Rocker™ is recognised by the Royal College of Podiatry for its benefits in promoting forward motion during walking.
