Product Information
Full details
The HOKA Stinson 8 is a maximum-cushioned trail runner designed for male athletes who prioritize stability and shock absorption on technical terrain. These trainers feature the innovative H-Frame Stability System to support the foot through uneven strides, making them ideal for long-distance trail excursions. While the Stinson 8 provides unparalleled comfort and impact protection, users should be aware that the high-cushion platform may feel less responsive than thinner, minimalist racing shoes.

FAQs
Is the Stinson 8 waterproof?
No, the Stinson 8 uses a breathable mesh upper for ventilation, which is not waterproof.
Can I use these for road running?
Yes, the 3.5mm lugs are designed to be versatile enough to transition effortlessly from road to trail.
What is the primary function of the H-Frame?
The H-Frame is a stability system that prevents overpronation without forcing an unnatural gait.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Stinson 8 has a supportive cage, but generally fits true to size. If you have extremely wide feet, we recommend trying them on to ensure the moulded cage is comfortable.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles, depending on the intensity of your terrain and weight.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort or pressure points mid-run
Re-adjust the laces to ensure even tension across the moulded cage overlay.
Accumulation of debris inside the shoe
Ensure the dual-sided gusset is pulled tight against the tongue to block trail debris.
Outsole losing traction in wet conditions
Clean the 3.5mm lugs of packed dirt or gravel, which can fill the gaps and reduce grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Stinson 8 trainers perform correctly, verify your UK size 12.5 fit upon arrival; the shoe should feel snug around the midfoot with adequate space in the toe box.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose mud with a soft brush once dry. If necessary, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the materials.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the adhesive and cushioning foams.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the mesh upper and rubber outsole.
