Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The HOKA Challenger 8 trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tightness for a secure and comfortable fit. It is recommended to wear appropriate athletic socks for optimal comfort and to prevent chafing.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are suitable for a range of athletic activities, primarily running and walking on mixed terrains. They are compatible with most standard athletic sock types.
Care:
- Cleaning: Gently clean the shoes after use, especially after trail runs, to remove dirt and debris. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to wipe down the mesh upper and midsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Laundering: It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as this can degrade the adhesives and structural integrity of the shoe.
