Hoka designed the Challenger 7 to perform on any kind of surface, be it dirt, gravel, grass, or pavement, and it’s a great pick if you need a versatile, go-anywhere pair of sneakers. The Challenger features a compression-molded EVA midsole for reliable shock absorption, and it’s topped with an engineered mesh upper for good breathability and a snug fit. Underneath, the tough rubber outsole can stand up to plenty of wear, and its 4mm lugs hit the sweet spot for grip: They’re big enough to bite into dirt but not so large that they’ll feel unorthodox on city streets and sidewalks.

The reviews rave about the Challenger 7, with multiple shoppers commenting on their superb feel. “The comfort of these shoes is amazing,” a shopper said. “Now I can walk longer and stand longer and it has taken almost all pain away.” Another shopper agreed, calling them “comfortable beyond belief.”

Other shoppers commented on their versatile sole construction that makes running easier. "I have been wearing these on dirt trails and asphalt and love them," a shopper said. "I also wear them to run around at the park with my kids. They are a sleeker fit than the Cliftons I have, but they still fit true to size. Great Hoka product, like always!"

Hoka shoes set the standard for comfort in running, and the Challenger 7 is one of the brand’s most popular models. Grabbing these shoes for just $109 is an excellent deal, but get ‘em in your cart quickly, because they’re going fast and certain sizes are already sold out.
