About Hoka

The name Hoka roughly translates to “fly over earth,” on its own it translates to “fly” or “soar.” The elite running shoe brand shapes its company on the idea of creating the feeling of flying when you run.

Initially created in France in 2009, Hoka emerged on the scene with their ‘maximal’ style running shoes. Growing fame for their engorged silhouette, their stabilizing oversized outer soles are crafted for all terrains. With each step the premium footwear provides cushioning through a thoughtfully engineered midsole to provide a smooth and efficient running shoe.

After being bought by the Deckers Outdoor Corporation in 2013, the footwear brand rose to success due to their shift on female focus. With the running realm being predominantly male focused, deciding to shift to a female fanbase radically diversifies the brand.

Hoka knows that once you gain the trust of the female community it is a ripple effect for all other communities.

The shift in focus supports Hoka’s wider purpose, to remain authentic in all capacities. Through the pandemic Hoka has risen to a wider stance showing support across the globe for ongoing political issues. Through their grassroot fans they are able to be fundamentally grounded in ensuring alternative narratives in supporting diverse ambassadors to reflect a contemporary vision of performance and active outdoor living.

Today Hoka is cultivated with problem-solving inspiration to meet the running, walking, fitness, and outdoor needs of all users. With the goal to empower all athletes, they continue to soar with innovation and passion.
