FAQs

Who is the HOKA Gaviota 6 designed for?

The Gaviota 6 is designed for adult road runners who need enhanced stability to help manage overpronation, offering a comfortable and smooth ride for daily miles and long runs.

How does the H-frame technology work?

The enhanced H-frame technology provides adaptive stability by gently guiding the foot through the gait cycle, helping to combat overpronation without using rigid or uncomfortable materials.

Can I use these for trail running?

These trainers are optimized for road running. While they offer good durability and traction, they are not specifically designed for the varied terrain and impact of trail running.

How do I clean my Gaviota 6 trainers?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the warranty period for HOKA shoes?

HOKA typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official HOKA website or your purchase receipt for specific warranty details and duration.

How does the internal lacing system benefit the fit?

The internal lacing system is designed to provide a more secure and locked-in feel around the midfoot, reducing the chance of the foot sliding inside the shoe during your run.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

Allow for a break-in period of a few runs. Adjust the lacing system to find a comfortable tension, ensuring not to overtighten.

Slight discomfort on the arch

This may be due to the new stability geometry. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. If discomfort persists after several runs, consider consulting a footwear specialist.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good traction, extremely wet conditions can reduce grip for any shoe. Ensure your stride is controlled and be mindful of slippery surfaces.
