Product Information
Full details
The HOKA ONE ONE Stinson 8 is designed for adult runners and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize maximum cushioning and reliable stability across both road and trail environments. By utilizing a redesigned, lightweight frame and an integrated H-Frame stability system, these trainers provide excellent impact protection and support for overpronation; however, the highly cushioned sole may feel less responsive to runners who prefer a firm, ground-connected feel during high-speed intervals.

FAQs
Is the Stinson 8 suitable for a marathon?
Yes, its maximum cushioning and stability make it well-suited for high-mileage events where impact protection is prioritized.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
Yes, the H-Frame stability system is specifically designed to support the foot and mitigate issues caused by overpronation.
Can I use these for strictly road running?
Absolutely. While they have trail-ready lugs, they perform comfortably on paved surfaces for daily training.
How should I store these trainers?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the foam midsole from hardening or yellowing.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The upper is made of breathable mesh, which is not waterproof and may let water in during wet conditions.
What is the weight compared to previous versions?
The Stinson 8 is designed as the lightest version in the series, offering a more agile feel than its predecessors.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe during trail use
Tighten the laces through the midfoot using a runner's loop, ensuring the moulded cage is providing adequate tension.
Mud accumulation in outsole lugs
Once dry, use a stiff-bristled brush to clear debris from between the 3.5mm lugs to maintain maximum traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Stinson 8 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks before attempting long-distance runs to allow the foam to adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after trail runs. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as high heat can degrade the cushioning integrity.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, which can cause the adhesives and materials to warp.
- Fit Check: Ensure the dual-sided gusset is pulled flat across the midfoot before lacing to avoid pressure points.
