FAQs

Are the HOKA Transport 2 shoes waterproof?

The HOKA Transport 2 features a Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) treatment, which helps repel light moisture and splashes. They are not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for heavy rain or submersion.

What makes the Transport 2 sustainable?

The Transport 2 incorporates sustainable materials, including a midsole made with 30% sugarcane EVA and an outsole constructed from Vibram EcoStep Recycle rubber.

Can I use these shoes for serious hiking?

The Transport 2 is designed for city-to-trail versatility and light hiking on moderate terrain. For rugged, technical trails or extended backpacking trips, more specialized hiking boots would be recommended.

How do I adjust the quick-toggle laces?

To tighten, pull the toggle upwards. To loosen, press the toggle mechanism and pull the laces.

What is the benefit of the higher stack height?

The higher stack height increases the amount of cushioning underfoot, providing a softer step-in feel and enhanced comfort during long periods of wear.

How should I clean my Transport 2 shoes?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing and allow shoes to air dry away from direct heat.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The standard width is designed to accommodate most foot shapes. For individuals with significantly wide feet, trying them on in person or checking for wider width options, if available, is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tighten or loosen

Ensure the toggle mechanism is clean and free of debris. Gently wiggle the toggle while adjusting the laces.

Water repellency seems reduced

The DWR treatment may wear off over time. Consider reapplying a DWR spray specifically designed for footwear, following product instructions.

Discomfort after extended wear

Ensure the shoe size is correct and allow a break-in period. Adjust the quick-toggle laces for a personalized fit.

Traction is insufficient on wet surfaces

While the Vibram EcoStep Recycle outsole offers good grip, extreme wet conditions may require more aggressive tread. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for comfort during long wear.
  • Sustainable material choices align with eco-friendly values.
  • Versatile design suitable for both urban and light outdoor use.
  • Convenient quick-lace system for easy on and off.
  • Good visibility in low-light conditions due to reflective elements.

Cons

  • May lack the ruggedness required for challenging mountain trails.
  • The quick-lace system might not offer the precise fit some hikers prefer.
  • DWR treatment effectiveness may diminish over time with heavy use or washing.
  • Relatively higher stack height could be less stable on highly uneven terrain for some users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Transport 2 features a quick-toggle lace system. To secure the shoe, simply pull the toggle upwards to tighten the laces. To loosen, press the toggle and pull the laces.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult women and are best suited for general wear, city commuting, and light hiking on moderate terrain. They are compatible with various athletic and casual wear.

Care: To maintain the shoes, clean them using a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and mud. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and water-repellent treatment. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.
