Whether you’re walking through wet trails, running over uneven terrain, or tackling inclement conditions, this versatile all-terrain shoe combines waterproof technology, plush cushioning, and durable traction to keep you comfortable and supported every step of the way.

Waterproof Protection for All Conditions

Rain or shine, the GORE-TEX Invisible Fit technology ensures your feet stay dry while maintaining exceptional breathability. This advanced waterproof membrane is integrated seamlessly into the upper, offering a lightweight, flexible feel without sacrificing protection. Plus, with 70% recycled polyester face fabric, the Challenger ATR 7 GTX reflects Hoka's commitment to sustainability while keeping you prepared for unpredictable weather.

Trail-Ready Versatility

Engineered for the adventurer who loves to explore both roads and trails, the Challenger ATR 7 GTX is designed with a reimagined outsole inspired by gravel tires. The 4mm lugs are strategically placed, with smaller, tightly spaced lugs in the center for smoother transitions and larger, more aggressive lugs at the perimeter for grip on uneven or slippery surfaces. Whether you're transitioning from pavement to muddy trails or climbing rocky paths, this shoe delivers reliable traction and stability.

Unmatched Cushioning and Comfort

The Challenger ATR 7 GTX features an increased stack height and a compression-molded EVA midsole, offering plush, responsive cushioning to absorb impact and reduce fatigue. Whether you’re walking for miles or running up hills, this lightweight foam provides a soft yet springy feel to keep you energized.

The midsole's balanced cushioning creates a smooth, consistent ride, while the extended heel pull makes slipping the shoe on and off effortless. With its plush comfort and lightweight construction, this shoe is ideal for anyone seeking a dependable all-day performer.

Breathable and Sustainable Design

The shoe’s engineered mesh upper is designed for lightweight breathability, ensuring optimal airflow to keep your feet cool and dry during high-intensity activities. This updated mesh construction also incorporates recycled content, offering an eco-conscious design without compromising durability or performance. The laces, made from 70% recycled nylon and 30% recycled polyester, add another layer of sustainability to this trail powerhouse.
