HOKA ONE ONE Tor Summit 2 - Black Leather - UK 8.5

While the nubuck leather upper offers good water resistance and the metal mudguard provides protection, these shoes are not fully waterproof. For enhanced water repellency, we recommend applying a suitable nubuck protector spray regularly.

We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. HOKA ONE ONE shoes generally run true to size, but consider the type of socks you'll be wearing. Your toes should have enough room to wiggle without feeling constricted.

The Tor Summit 2 is primarily designed for hiking, walking, and casual wear, prioritizing stability, cushioning, and durability over lightweight running performance. While they can handle short bursts, they are not optimized for dedicated running.

'Neutral Stability' means the shoe is designed to provide balanced cushioning and support without actively correcting for pronation (the inward rolling of the foot). It's suitable for individuals with a neutral gait or mild pronation.

Allow your shoes to air out completely after each use. Remove insoles to facilitate drying. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

The lifespan of your Tor Summit 2 depends on usage intensity, terrain, and care. With proper maintenance and moderate use, you can expect a durable performance over an extended period. Regular inspection for wear and tear is recommended.

Use a specialized nubuck brush to gently rub the affected area. This helps to lift dirt and restore the natural texture and color of the nap. For deeper marks, a dedicated nubuck cleaner can be applied sparingly.

Ensure the Vibram Megagrip sole is clean. Dirt, mud, or debris can accumulate in the tread patterns, reducing traction. Use a stiff brush and water to clean the sole thoroughly, allowing it to dry completely before next use.

Re-evaluate your lacing. An overly tight or uneven lacing can cause discomfort. Try different lacing patterns to distribute pressure more evenly. Also, ensure you're wearing appropriate socks that wick moisture and provide adequate cushioning. If discomfort persists, consider trying aftermarket insoles for personalized support.
