Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your HOKA Arahi 9 trainers, start by ensuring the laces are tensioned correctly—the upper is designed to wrap the foot, so avoid overtightening to keep the mesh breathable. These shoes are compatible with standard orthotics if required, though the built-in stability often negates that need for most users. To maintain the life of the shoe, avoid machine washing or drying. Clean them by wiping the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If they become soaked during a run, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture slowly at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators.
