HOKA Speedgoat

Aggressive grip and generous cushioning for technical trails.

The HOKA Speedgoat is a do-it-all trail running shoe built to tackle the most demanding terrain without sacrificing comfort. Named for the goat-like agility it inspires, the Speedgoat combines a grippy Vibram Megagrip outsole with deep, multi-directional lugs that bite into rock, mud, and loose trail so you can move with confidence on climbs and descents alike. Underfoot, a generous EVA foam midsole delivers HOKA's signature high cushioning, absorbing impact over rugged miles and keeping your legs fresh deep into long trail efforts and ultra distances. A secure, trail-ready fit locks your foot in place through switchbacks and uneven ground, while the durable mesh upper stands up to the rigors of the backcountry. For trail and ultra runners who want a versatile, protective, and confidence-inspiring ride across mixed and technical terrain, the Speedgoat is a proven mountain companion that goes the distance.
