Product Information
Full details
The HOKA ONE ONE Stinson 8 Trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking maximum underfoot cushioning for diverse environments, ranging from rugged trails to paved roads. These trainers provide an exceptionally stable ride through the integrated H-Frame system, offering comfort and support for long-distance efforts. While they excel in shock absorption and versatility, users should note that the high-cushion platform may feel slightly bulkier compared to minimalist speed-focused racing flats.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Stinson 8 features a breathable mesh upper designed for airflow, which means it is not waterproof and may let in water if submerged.
Can I use these for marathon running?
Yes, their maximum cushioning makes them a popular choice for runners requiring extra joint protection during high-mileage events.
Do they provide arch support?
The H-Frame stability system provides a level of inherent guidance that supports the arch area without requiring a heavy plastic post.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 400-500 miles, depending on the intensity of your terrain and your individual gait.
Are these suitable for gym workouts?
They are designed primarily for running. While comfortable for general gym use, the high stack height may feel less stable during heavy weightlifting or lateral-movement-heavy activities.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability on uneven ground
Ensure your laces are cinched correctly through the midfoot to leverage the H-Frame stability system.
Debris entering the shoe on trails
Consider wearing gaiters to seal the collar area against rocks and sand.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Stinson 8 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard UK sizing; ensure a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe for optimal comfort.
- Break-in Period: While HOKA shoes are comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter 20-30 minute walks before embarking on a long-distance trail run to allow the materials to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: After trail use, remove excess mud by tapping the soles together. Clean the mesh upper with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can warp the cushioning materials.
