The archival silhouette is remixed as a lifestyle shoe and it is highlighted by the stacked cushioned sole unit. This foundation curves around the signature MetaRocker for a [maximalist aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoka-bondi-9). This bold look continues as it also features a bright colorway palette to be just as dynamic as the silhouette. The colorway is dubbed solar flare and cantaloupe, which details the upper with a gradient finish starting from orange and blending into a neon green hue. Other accents include the laces, heel pull tab, and midsole section -- all of which are done in the same bright green.
