Yes, the Stinson 7 is designed for road-to-trail versatility and provides excellent cushioning and a smooth ride on paved surfaces.
How do I clean my Stinson 7 shoes?
Clean with a soft brush for loose dirt, and use a damp cloth with mild soap and cool water for deeper cleaning. Allow to air dry naturally and avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
What does the H-Frame in the Stinson 7 provide?

What is the difference between this and other HOKA trail shoes?
The Stinson 7 is distinguished by its maximal cushioning and broader versatility, aiming to be an 'all-in-one' shoe for diverse activities, whereas other HOKA trail models might be more specialized for speed, technical terrain, or minimalist feel.
What size is this specific guide for?
This guide pertains to the HOKA Stinson 7 Hiking Shoes in a Women's UK size 6.5, with a Rosemary and Fragrant Lilac colorway.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing system for a more personalized fit. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider if the shoe's profile matches your foot shape.
Traction is poor on wet surfaces
While the lugs offer good grip, exceptionally slick surfaces can be challenging. Ensure the outsole is clean; mud or debris can reduce effectiveness. For extremely wet conditions, exercise caution.
Cushioning feels excessively soft
The Stinson 7 is designed for maximum cushioning. If a firmer ride is preferred, this model may not be ideal. Consider exploring HOKA models with less maximal cushioning if ground feel is a priority.
Heel slippage occurs
Adjust the lacing, ensuring the heel is locked down. Some lacing techniques, like a 'heel lock' or 'runner's knot', can help secure the heel. Ensure the shoe's heel counter provides adequate support for your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Stinson 7 arrives ready to wear. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a proper fit. The laces allow for adjustment to achieve a secure and comfortable lockdown.
Compatibility: This shoe is designed for adult women. It is compatible with standard athletic socks. While primarily designed for running and hiking, its comfort makes it suitable for general active use.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Stinson 7 shoes:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged direct sunlight, which can degrade the cushioning and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged compression or stacking heavy items on top of the shoes.
