Full details
The HOKA Stinson Breeze is designed for adults seeking a comfortable and breathable lifestyle trainer with trail-ready features for warm weather. Its key benefit is the fusion of a super-cushy sole with a breezy, open leather upper, ideal for casual wear in summer.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the HOKA Stinson Breeze features a cut-out leather upper designed for maximum breathability and is not waterproof.
Can I wear these for serious trail running?
While they have trail-inspired features like lugs and a toe cap, they are primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer. For technical or high-mileage trail running, a dedicated trail running shoe would be more appropriate.
How do I clean the cut-out leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For tougher marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
What is the primary benefit of the Stinson Breeze compared to other HOKA shoes?
The primary benefit is its exceptional breathability due to the cut-out leather upper, making it ideal for warm weather and casual wear, while still retaining HOKA's signature cushioning.
What material is the midsole made of?
The midsole is constructed with CMEVA foam, which provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The fit can vary, but HOKA often offers shoes with a generous forefoot. It's recommended to try them on or check specific sizing guides if you have wider feet.
What is the purpose of the neoprene vamp?
The neoprene vamp enhances comfort and provides a snugger, more adaptive fit around the ankle area.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or stiff
Wear the shoes with appropriate socks for a few hours each day to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Ensure laces are not overtightened.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
Clean the lugs on the outsole to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction.
Leather showing signs of drying out
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner with a soft cloth to moisturize the leather and maintain its suppleness.
Discoloration on the upper
Use a cleaner specifically formulated for the type of leather (e.g., nubuck cleaner) and test in an inconspicuous area first.
