Still grey in the skies, and there’s apparently one more cold snap to go, but the arrival of some bright, flamboyant trail runners from HOKA ONE ONE has everyone at WCH a little optimistic for spring.
The Mafate Speed 2 has landed in colourways reminiscent of a sweet shop, with oranges, lime greens, pinks and blues – everything a trail runner should be.
And also some tech, obviously. A seamless SpeedFrame construction, their iconic RMAT midsole and a Vibram Megagrip tread.
Other fresh arrivals include their Clifton L Suede, a decent, durable lifestyle option, the Bondi 8 in some classic all whites and blacks, and the Hopara sandal, although you’d have to be really optimistic for that one, or maybe have a holiday booked in the Maldives.
Some honorable mentions from Arc’teryx and our mates VÅGA. Best GORE-TEX shells and running hats money can buy.
