HOKA Speedgoat 6 Men’s Trail Running Shoes
Tough terrain. Grippy ride. Trusted by trail runners.
The HOKA Speedgoat 6 is built for serious Kiwi trail runners tackling everything from muddy forest tracks to rocky climbs across the country. Known for its grip, cushioning, and confidence over technical ground, the Speedgoat returns lighter, more responsive, and better ventilated in this sixth generation.
This update features a new woven upper for breathable comfort, a foot-hugging internal chassis for lockdown on uneven terrain, and a dual gusseted tongue that keeps debris out while boosting comfort on long runs. The midsole has been tuned for a lighter, more responsive feel, while the Vibram® Megagrip outsole with 5 mm lugs provides aggressive traction in all conditions - dry or wet.
