It is already a proven fact that Running shoes manufacturers are committed to launching "hybrid" models on the market, which combine the functionality and specific features of running shoes with the comfort and distinction of a model that can be worn at any time of the day. No brand can resist this concept of running shoes - we are talking about the sneaker trend.
The Hoka One One Hupana, a new model that combines the features of a running shoe and the versatility, including the fit, of a casual sneaker that can be worn with any look.
Focusing on what interests us most, which is none other than the running aspect, these new Hupana shoes reflect the main guidelines to which Hoka One One One has accustomed us in its varied catalog. That is: Light, fast and sophisticated design, in which the priority is focused onoffering high cushioning, but contained in a model with the lowest possible weight.
Thus, one of the most outstanding features of the Hoka One One Hupana is its great responsiveness, which comes from the midsole and outsole, made with the RMAT compound. This compound helps this model to offer a more comfortable and pleasant feel without sacrificing optimal cushioning. In addition, with the incorporation of the exclusive RMAT material, the Hupana also ensures lightness, durability and greater performance in each stride.
As for the upper of the Hoka One One Hupana, a fine fabric lining has been chosen, very well finished and seamless to provide a snugger fit to the runner's foot. Although the great success of the Hoka One One is that this Hupana has an upper with a double mesh upper. On the one hand, a denser area; and on the other hand, a fabric that appears more perforated, favoring a better breathability, but also increasing the comfort of the shoe.
With all of the above, it should also be emphasized that the Hoka One One Hupana is labeled in thespeed" category, which means that it is a model oriented to fast training and competitions at faster paces. In fact, the runner with neutral stride and average weight, under 80 kilos, will be able to run with the Hoka One One Hupana in a range of paces under 4:30. However, the support on the metatarsals (forefoot) will require the runner to display a refined and correct running technique.
In the technical specifications, the Hoka One One Hupana model has a low drop of 5 millimeters, a low profile -a hallmark of the company-; and an approximate weight of 232 grams for the men's version in size 42.5EU; and 179 grams for the women's model.
