The drop was scheduled to drop prior to the original Tokyo 2020 Olympics before the postponed news. The label features hues of red, white, blue, and gold for a minimal yet bold look overall. The shoes are spotlighted by its exaggerated outsoles and dramatic cushioning. The collection features the RINCON TK, the [CLIFTON 7](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoka-clifton-one9), the CARBON X-SPE, the CLIFTON EDGE, as well as the summer-ready RECOVERY SLIDE. The design sensibility this time around had a focus on marathon races, translated through elements such as the carbon plate in the CARBON X-SPE.
