HOKA brings attention to its latest design in the form of the Kaha 3 GTX boot -- it is the newest hiking model by the brand and it boasts new subtle changes and modifications. The lightweight model is rugged and advanced as the new generation is defined by a more cushioned and durable build to combat adventures.
The GORE-TEX is not a visible fit and the membrane is made to be more comfortable. The watertight running silhouette gets an improved fit for a new look throughout the upper for a more sporty and streamlined silhouette. Under the hood is the silhouette's plush and soft cushioning at the midsole with more elevation with the dual-density sugarcane EVA midsole.
