HOKA is renowned for soft, cushioned trainers, and the Gaviota adds maximum stability. In our running shoes for bad knees guide we liked how the design lets the foot roll through a natural gait, reducing wear and tear on painful knees.
The grippy outsole holds well in all conditions, and the relatively wide toe box suits runners with wide feet. The Gaviota 6 is the current version.
Who it’s for: overpronators and runners with bad knees who want HOKA comfort with maximum support.
