Hoka Arahi 8 Review

If you’re after a stability running shoe that doesn’t feel over-corrective or clunky, the Hoka Arahi 8 might surprise you. In this video, I take you through my full hands-on review after testing the Arahi 8 across daily runs and longer sessions. It’s lighter, smoother, and now more balanced with Hoka’s new H-Frame geometry that supports both overpronators and supinators naturally. You’ll learn how the Arahi 8 compares to the Arahi 7, how the upper fits wider feet, and what makes it one of the most refined stability trainers on the market right now. I’ll also talk about durability, traction, and whether I think it’s worth the $150 price tag.
