The men’s Hoka Gaviota 5 aims to combine the best of a max. cushioned yet lightweight design with a high level of stability for those that suffer from overpronation. Whether you're a seasoned marathoner or just starting your road running journey, you can appreciate the higher level of cushioning and comfort, whether in your first few miles or on your long runs/recovery runs.

By now you may be familiar with the experience of ‘running on clouds’ Hoka are famous for. The Gaviota 5 features the softest cushioning to date, softer than the Gaviota 4 and previous editions.

The Gaviota 5 provides its support via what Hoka describe as J-Frame™ technology, and in the latest version have added an H-Frame™ and wider base & fit.An engineered mesh upper should provide a snug comfy fit and allows for optimal airflow when you heat up to help keep your feet cool and dry.

Bottom line? The Hoka Gaviota 5 is a comfortable, max. support and max. cushion road running shoe for a range of distances.
