The HOKA Challenger ATR 8 delivers the cushioning and grip you need, whether you're logging road miles or exploring nearby trails. The GORE-TEX membrane upper makes it a versatile shoe for anytime in any weather condition.
Known for its soft cushioning and smooth meta-rocker ride, the new Challenger ATR 8 has more cushion underfoot, more space in forefoot to midfoot fit, and improved traction – it's the comfiest and most supportive version to date. It has a firmer and more aggressive rocker that will help you keep moving forward with each step.
If you enjoy the HOKA cushioning and smooth rocker like Clifton or Bondi, you will appreciate the similar sensation in the Challenger ATR, but with the added versatility to go off-road trail running and local hikes.

"This is my second pair of Hoka Challenger 8s, and they’re still the most comfortable walking shoes I’ve owned. They fit my orthotics perfectly and have excellent grip on all surfaces. Comfort and reliability are outstanding, and the new colours look great too. They’re not a cheap shoe at full price, but if you can pick them up during an EOFY sale or other special, they’re a fantastic buy."
"This is my third pair of Hoka's and the second of this model, a great shoe for trail running. They are super comfy and a good fit for my slightly wider feet. Super easy to buy online with Pace, quick deliveries. Highly recommended."
"These trail shoes are very comfortable with excellent grip and cushioning. They feel stable on different surfaces and are great for long walks, hiking, and light trail runs. The fit is perfect, and the quality is excellent. Delivery was also very fast."
"I don’t know much about these. They were on sale and I got them as a pair of comfy black shoes for standing at work. They are really supportive in the heel and responsive at the ball of my foot. The tread is tough and thick without the stack height. Perfect for those runs that go off road and you need more grip and response."
"Shoe is super light especially for a trail shoe and feels so similar to my bondi's- just with more grip! I've purchase several shoes through Pace and have found them really good to shop with."
"I upgraded from the ATR 7 as its discontinued and wasn't sure if I would like them as much, but I am very happy with them and they are very comfortable. I am still adjusting a little to the subtle differences in stack height wider forefoot but early days but so far so good."
"Picked these up to save my road shoes from being shredded on gravel and trails, and also wear on ultralight hikes. Super comfy shoe, first time wearing them was a 23K trail run on mixed terrain and no pain or anything like that that handled it well. I think they fit slightly larger than Hoka Mach 6 but saves your toes on the downhills."
"Called in to garbage some extra nutrition for uta, the staff were great and very helpful and even helped find me my size in shoes, a 2e is hard to find some times. Thank you"
"After great service and exploring solutions by the wonderful pace staff this issue meets all my needs for travel. It’s light great for walking, great for hiking and super comfortable especially for a narrow heel and wider foot. Couldn’t be happier!"
"Thank you very much for the quick delivery of my fantastic new running shoes, just feel amazing on, so light weight and stable."
