Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your HOKA Stinson 8 hiking shoes, verify that you have selected the correct UK size for your foot shape. When breaking in the shoes, wear them for short walks on flat terrain before tackling longer, elevation-heavy hikes. For maintenance, keep the shoes away from direct high-heat sources to preserve the foam integrity. If the shoes become muddy, allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area and gently brush off debris once dry. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the specialized midsole cushioning and bonding materials.
