HOKA ONE ONE introduces a new [slip-on running shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoka-project-transport) in the form of the Restore TC silhouette. The sneakers are a classic running sneaker but it is laceless for a sleek look. The French company highlights the affordable aspect as it is about $90 cheaper than its [HOKA TC 1.0](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoka-tc-10), which has comparable design elements.

It is currently exclusively available to shop at specialist HOKA retail locations with a wider release to hit the markets later this year. The shoes are complete with the brand's iconic [Hubble sole unit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ora-primo) foundation, which is a chunky treaded base that supports energy with every single step. It comes with a stretchy base and the colorway palettes are relatively neutral.
