FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain or snow?

The HOKA Transport 2 features a topical water-repellent treatment, making them suitable for light rain and splashes. They are not waterproof and are not recommended for heavy precipitation, snow, or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

Can I replace the quick-toggle laces with standard laces?

Yes, traditional laces are included with the shoes, allowing you to swap out the quick-toggle system for a more traditional lacing experience if preferred.

What is the primary intended use for the Transport 2?

The Transport 2 is designed for city-to-trail versatility, making them ideal for walking, light hiking, and everyday lifestyle wear. They offer enhanced comfort and cushioning.

How do I clean the shoes?

Spot clean using a mild soap and cool water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Do these shoes offer ankle support?

The Transport 2 are low-cut hiking shoes and provide standard ankle support for this type of footwear. They are best suited for trails that do not require significant ankle stabilization.

What makes these shoes sustainable?

They incorporate sustainable materials, including a midsole made with 30% sugarcane EVA and an outsole made with 30% recycled materials. Additionally, key fabric components like the vamp, tongue, collar lining, and webbing are made from 100% recycled polyester.

How do I maintain the water-repellent feature?

The water-repellent treatment is topical and can diminish over time. You can reapply it using a commercially available footwear waterproofing spray designed for treated fabrics, following the product's instructions.

Troubleshooting

Quick-toggle lace won't stay tight

Ensure the toggle is fully engaged. If the lace has become worn, consider replacing it with the included traditional laces or a new quick-lace system.

Shoes feel slightly damp after use in light rain

This is normal as the water-repellent treatment is designed for splashes and light precipitation. Ensure shoes are dried thoroughly after exposure. For increased protection, consider reapplying a water-repellent treatment.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While the Vibram® EcoStep Recycle outsole provides good traction, wet surfaces can reduce grip for any footwear. Clean the outsole to remove debris that might impede traction.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, ensure the fit is correct and consider using the traditional laces for a more adjustable fit. Check that the sockliner is properly seated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The HOKA Transport 2 comes with a quick-toggle stretch lace system for rapid on and off. If you prefer a traditional fit, a pair of standard laces are included in the box. To use the quick-toggle system, simply slide the toggle to tighten and lift it to loosen. Traditional laces can be threaded through the eyelets as you would with any other shoe.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult use, suitable for individuals with a UK size 6.5 foot. They are compatible with a wide range of walking and hiking socks.

Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your Transport 2 shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Spot clean using a mild soap and cool water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing.
  2. Drying: Air dry shoes away from direct heat sources. Do not use a dryer.
  3. Water Repellency: The PFC-free/PFAS-Free water-repellent treatment can be reapplied using specialized footwear sprays designed for water-resistant materials, following the product's instructions.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
