HOKA
Arahi 9
HOKA's mid-weight stability trainer keeps its H-Frame support and smooth rocker under a redesigned engineered-mesh upper. Stable without feeling rigid, it suits easy daily miles more than faster work.
What's new: Mainly a new engineered-mesh upper with more toe-box height, plus better wet grip and a later forefoot rocker; slightly less stack and a little heavier than the Arahi 8.
