FAQs
Are the HOKA Stinson 7 suitable for wide feet?
The Stinson 7 generally offers a comfortable fit, and its design accommodates a range of foot shapes. For those needing extra width, it is advisable to check for specific wide (2E or 4E) sizing options if available for this model, or try them on in person.
Can I use these shoes for everyday walking?
Yes, the HOKA Stinson 7's excellent cushioning makes them ideal for everyday walking, providing comfort and support throughout the day.
How durable is the outsole?
The outsole features multi-directional lugs designed for durability and grip on various terrains. Combined with the rubber toe cap, they are built to withstand typical trail use.
What is the main difference between the Stinson 7 and other HOKA trail shoes?
The Stinson 7 is known for its maximal cushioning and exceptional versatility, making it a go-to for those who prioritize comfort on long runs and hikes across mixed terrain, often referred to as HOKA's 'Swiss army knife' of shoes.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The standard HOKA Stinson 7 Trail Shoes are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and quick drying. For waterproof options, HOKA may offer specific GTX (Gore-Tex) versions.
How do I know if I have the right size?
A proper fit should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should be snug but not constricting. It's always best to try them on, ideally at the end of the day when feet are slightly swollen.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing system to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct shoe size. Consider using different lacing techniques if specific pressure points are an issue.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces.
While the lugs are multi-directional, very slick surfaces may challenge any shoe. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud and debris for maximum grip. For extremely wet conditions, proceed with caution.
Cushioning feels excessively soft.
This is characteristic of HOKA's maximalist approach. If it feels too soft for your preference, ensure the laces are adequately tightened to provide a more secure and responsive feel. For some users, breaking in the shoes slightly can also refine the feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The HOKA Stinson 7 Trail Shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult men and are suitable for road running, trail running, hiking, and general outdoor activities. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the materials.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally not stacked directly on top of each other for extended periods, to preserve their form and cushioning.
