Hoka Speedgoat 2 Trainers - Black - Size 6.5

While they can be used for short road sections, the Speedgoat 2 is primarily designed for off-road and trail running due to its aggressive outsole and cushioned midsole optimized for varied terrain.

Refer to Hoka's official sizing chart, which usually provides measurements in centimeters or inches corresponding to UK sizes. It's also helpful to try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between models.

The Compression-molded EVA (CMEV) foam provides exceptional shock absorption, reducing impact on joints during running, and offers a stable yet slightly bouncy feel underfoot.

Clean your trainers after particularly muddy or dirty runs. For general maintenance, a light brush and wipe-down as needed will suffice. Avoid excessive washing.

A 'reissue' indicates that this is a reproduction or updated version of a classic model. The Hoka Speedgoat 2 maintains the original silhouette, geometry, and style from its initial 2017 launch.

The engineered mesh offers breathability, which means they will allow water to enter if submerged. However, they also tend to drain and dry relatively quickly. They are not waterproof but perform adequately in damp or moderately wet conditions.

Ensure you have the correct UK size. Try loosening the laces and re-tying them, focusing on an even pressure across the foot. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider if the shoe's shape is compatible with your foot.

The Speedgoat 2 is optimized for varied trail conditions. If traction is an issue on extremely muddy or slick surfaces, consider that even aggressive outsoles have limitations. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.

The Hoka Speedgoat 2 features significant CMEV foam for maximum cushioning. If you prefer a firmer feel, this model might not be ideal. Allow some time for your feet to adapt to the level of cushioning.
