Hoka Gaviota 4 Women's Running Shoes
A premium stability shoe, the Gaviota 4 returns this season, as plush as ever. Delivering the same maximal cushioning and J-Frame enhanced support, it's been reworked with a plusher collar and tongue to offer unexpected improvements in comfort.
Engineered Mesh Upper
Constructed using a breathable engineered mesh fabric, the uppers of the Gaviota Running Shoes provide feet with a cosy, comfortable experience. Not only will they provide you a sock-like, secure fit, but the shoes will also ensure an optimal level of air can flow through the shoes, in order to create a breathable, cool experience for feet to thrive. The shoes have recycled polyester laces for a traditional, yet sustainable lace-up construction to help the feet remain locked in and secure, therefore preventing in-shoe slippage from occurring. Preventing irritation and abrasion from occurring, the shoes have a plushy collar and single-sided tongue gusset, offering improvements in comfort to their predecessors. Finally, a heel pull tab provides you assistance with putting on the shoes.
CMEVA Midsole
To provide you plush, comfortable cushioning and exceptional support and stability, the Gaviota 4's have a J-Frame midsole. The J-Frame technology delivers a stable platform for those looking to prevent and combat over-pronation by using firmer foam on the medial side of the short, in combination with additional rubber for durability for a comfortable, confident running experience. Alongside this, the shoes have a Midfoot H-Frame, providing additional upper support as well as, a midfoot lockdown. The shoes also have a late-stage Meta-Rocker for a smooth ride and additional forefoot support.
Durable Rubber Outsole
Enhancing underfoot stability and traction on varied terrain, the Hoka Gaviota 4's have a durable rubber outsole. The shoes' high-wear rubber compound help to ensure the shoes have exceptional durability and will provide you grip throughout your run.
Hoka shoes tend to be quite snug over the midfoot so consider whether a wide fitting Hoka shoe may be more suitable.
