Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct shoe size. If the issue persists, consider using insoles or thicker socks.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While designed for versatile traction, extremely wet and slick surfaces can challenge any shoe. Clean the lugs of any debris that might impede grip. For very wet conditions, proceed with caution.
Cushioning feels too soft for running
The Stinson 7 prioritizes maximal cushioning, which may feel less responsive for performance running. For faster running activities, consider a shoe model with a firmer midsole or a lighter profile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The HOKA Stinson 7 is ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct UK size for optimal fit. Compatibility is broad, designed for adult males across various activities from hiking to casual wear. To care for your Stinson 7 shoes, we recommend cleaning them after use, especially after muddy excursions. Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and debris from the upper and sole. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the shoe's materials and structure. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Periodic checks for wear and tear on the lugs and cushioning can help determine when it's time for a replacement.
