Delivers dynamic stability
The Hoka Arahi features the brand’s new J-Frame technology, which delivers dynamic stability and added protection to us during our runs.
The upper unit of the shoe also utilizes the 3D Puff Print Frame, which we discovered to provide us with support without adding weight.
Arahi delivers decent traction and durability
Lastly, we found that Arahi uses the Zonal Rubber Placement to provide a durable outsole. We established that it gives integrity to high-abrasion areas and it also offers enhanced ground contact.
The Hoka Arahi features a durable rubber in the outsole. The Zonal Rubber Placement is strategically placed and we realized that this gives protection to high-wear areas. Lastly, the outsole has reliable lugs that deliver decent traction while running on the road, keeping us safe and sound while logging in the miles.
Trouble getting locked-down security
Aside from its slightly expensive price tag, we felt that the shoe was too narrow. Some of us also had trouble getting locked-down security in the heel.
We were disappointed that the wide options were just not wide enough for the wide footers among us.

The midsole of the shoe utilizes the new J-Frame technology that is constructed from the traditional EVA foam but with a firmer density.
The J-Frame wraps around our heel area and extends to our medial side, providing us with responsive cushioning and lightweight support. The Early Stage Meta-Rocker also provided us with a smoother heel-to-toe transition.
