Hey guys, welcome back.

I'm Alastair and this is the Hoka Challenger 8.

This one is very much still a road to trail running shoe, so it's not really designed to be going all mountain on highly technical trails you could do it,

but there are better running shoes out there for that use case.

It's not a hugely radical update from version 7, which by the way, for the record, I really did like.

And if you are looking at that shoe now, maybe because you want to pick up a deal, I'd recommend checking out that review to learn more about that shoe.

The Challenger 8 does come with some subtle updates that, in my opinion, make it a better trail running shoe.

It has a really refined fit, better traction and that same soft stable ride that I really liked on a previous version.

They cost $155 which now puts it very much in line with the Hoka Speedgoat 6.

Same price so if you're really not sure

which one of those shoes to go for this one or the Speedgoat 6 definitely follow that link up there.

I put an article together that compares the two shoes how they perform in different scenarios

and ultimately that will help you find the best running shoe for you and your needs.

They weigh 9.5 ounces or 265 grams.

That's for size US Men's 9, my pair.

They have a drop of seven millimeters from heel to toe.

The upper is super comfortable.

It's using 100% recycled material on there.

It is breathable.

And the collars around here, the heel counter, which is articulated and has a good amount of flex to it.

They're just super comfortable to slip on.

This is definitely for me the most comfortable Hoka trail running shoe right now.

The midsole is using a compression molded EVA foam.

It has a really nice balance.

It feels very soft but it maintains stability and it has a good amount of response as well,

meaning it bounces back and springs back when you compress it.

The outsole is using Hoka's dual abrasion rubber compound.

Now, it's not Vibram Mega Grip, so this is one of the downsides to this shoe, and it's one of the reasons it's not the best all-mountain trail running shoe,

just because the rubber compound isn't quite as effective as some of the other trail running shoe offerings from Hoka,

like the Speedcoat series and the Mafat as well.

And they have 4mm lugs, so not incredibly deep, but certainly capable enough for most things.

Some additional features then include some reflective highlights, you've also got this finger pull at the rear to make them easier to slip on,

and also the last in the shoe has been improved to improve the fit overall

so I think more people with different foot shapes are going to enjoy the fit in this one for sure.

When it comes to sizing and fit they are very much true to size so go with your usual sizing.

Now the toe box does have a little bit of extra room in there

which is really nice so if you are a fan of the Speedgoat

or you didn't get on with the Speedgoat

because the toe box was too tight

and a little bit triangular then you're really going to like these

because there is more room and the fit for me is just spot on.

It really is fantastic.

The lockdown within the shoe is really good as well so there's no heel slip.

The lacing system here is very traditional but it just works

and it's very easy to get that nice perfect fit very quickly.

Collars and the heel counts are all very padded, but also the tongue is very padded too.

Not like the Speedgoat series or the Mafat, the most recent release of that, which was August 1st. This one is actually a really nice soft tongue,

and I'd love to see Hoka bring a tongue like this to the Speedgoat and the Mafat series.

It would just make the comfort levels so so much better.

If you know you have wide feet, then there is a wide version available as well.

So just go with that version.

If you're enjoying this review so far, please give a video a like.

I really appreciate it when you guys do that.

It really helps the channel, but also comment on the video.

So yeah, drop all your comments on this shoe or just let me know what your favourite Hoka trail running shoe is.

Love to hear it.

And of course, subscribe to the channel for more running shoe reviews just like this one.

I always keep things genuine, honest and as insightful as possible to help you decide whether or not the shoe I'm currently reviewing

is going to be best for you and your needs.

But if at any point, maybe I've missed something in my reviews, just drop a comment down below and I'll get back to you.

Well, congratulations, you made it to my performance review.

This is my favourite part of every review because I get to share my experience running with the shoes.

And this one for me is a real winner.

I absolutely love it.

I love the previous version, but this one goes that little step further in terms of how the ride feels, but also the comfort levels in the upper.

So I'm going to start with the midsole and the ride that this shoe gives.

So first off, you can see the geometry.

There is a rockered geometry to this.

All that means is the shoe will give you a nice transition from heel landing to toe takeoff.

But it performs really well whether you heel strike or you strike towards your forefoot.

So whatever kind of stride you have, this shoe does perform really well.

I tested it, so I know that for certain.

So the transition is really good, but it's not just the geometry that's doing it.

It is this EVA foam, which is really nice and soft, but it does bounce back and it's not plush.

So you don't get an unstable shoe.

The midsole does also rise up around your foot on both sides,

giving you somewhat of a cage or a structure that actually supports and stabilizes your foot within the shoe.

That support on the run is really noticeable.

It makes it a much more stable shoe when you consider the fact that the midsole is nice and soft, meaning it's going to be good for hard surfaces like running on the roads,

but also light trails as well.

And if you want to go long distances, the comfort level on here is next level, to be honest.

So you can really run as long as you like in these shoes on any terrain.

Just don't go for anything too technical.

Now, although the Challenger 8 is very ever so slightly heavier than the previous version,

it feels just as nimble doesn't feel like a heavy shoe and that's because it's not.

If you are looking at some of the specs on paper

and you're thinking whether you should get this one or the previous version, I definitely recommend going with a newer one.

There have been refinements that definitely make it a better shoe.

Moving on to the outsole, it is still using duo abrasion rubber and

that was one of my downsides on the previous version and the fact that the lugs aren't all that aggressive.

They are multi-directional now, which makes the

traction much better than the previous version

and the outsole does kind of get inset more meaning there is more range in the outsole

so if you are running on wet mud

that kind of stuff then you will get better traction than a previous version

but it's not fiber mega grip

so the rubber compound isn't gonna be as good on stuff like wet slick rocks

100

but this shoe really is designed as a all-terrain shoe in

101

terms of being able to run on roads really well

102

but also light trails really well it's not an all-mountain trail running shoe

103

if that's something you're looking for definitely either watch my best all mountain trail running shoes roundup there

104

or head over to my roundup on alistairrunning.com

105

that will point you in the right direction for the best all mountain trail running shoes for you.

106

And this one really does feel just as good on the roads as it does on light trails.

107

Honestly it just it breezes across the transition really really well so

108

if you do have to run to your trailhead then you're

109

not going to be worrying about a shoe that's too firm

110

or just not going to perform well on roads because this does.

111

I've also been using mine for dog walks

112

and taking my dog Kepler to the park and just walking around the neighborhood doing lifestyle things, just going out to restaurants,

113

all that kind of stuff.

114

I actually really enjoy this one because it is just so comfortable and breathable.

115

One thing to note, if you are running on the roads you will notice

116

that kind of clawing sound as the aggressive lugs are trying to dig into asphalt or concrete.

117

That's just something that, you know, that's a natural thing because the outsole is a lot more aggressive than the road running shoe.

118

It's not that noticeable and to be honest it's nice knowing

119

that your shoe is going to be better prepared than most

120

if you are walking around town or you're taking a shoe on holiday or vacation.

121

It's nice knowing that the outsole is going to be more than capable.

122

All in for a road to trail running shoe then performance on this one is next level.

123

It's 10 out of 10 for me, I absolutely love it.

124

It is currently ranking number one on my best road to trail running shoes roundup and for good reason.

125

If you're wondering where this one placed on my best road to trail running shoes roundup on alistairrunning.com, well you'll just have to go and visit that post up there.

126

That's always kept up to date as and when I review road to trail running shoes that list will get updated.

127

Very quickly then, how does this one compare to the previous version?

128

Well, first off, the fit has been refined, so it is certainly a lot more comfortable in the upper now, and there's a little bit more room in the toe box.

129

There is more foam in the midsole, but that does make it much softer and a much smoother ride.

130

It also makes it a touch heavier, really not noticeable by any means, but it's there.

131

The outsole is of course more grippy as well, It's more aggressive on their multi-directional lugs, and there's more inset areas,

132

making it better for muddy trails as well.

133

It's still super versatile and smooth in the transition, but it just feels more dialed in overall.

134

And it's certainly worthy of an upgrade if you are looking at buying this one.

135

Is it worth $155 then?

136

Well, yes, if you've been watching this video closely, I think it's pretty clear I really like this one.

137

It is currently my favourite rototrail running shoe for all the reasons I've outlined in this review.

138

It's super comfortable.

139

The ride is next level.

140

The transition is just fantastic.

141

I like the fact the drop isn't too high.

142

It's a medium drop.

143

So you're able to have a nice natural foot fall.

144

So whether you do strike towards your heel or your midfoot, you have a really, really nice

145

cushion ride underfoot and transition the works really well all the way across the shoe

146

so it's a super versatile shoe in terms of what it can do

147

but also who it's going to be good for

148

if you've tried the shoe I want you to let me

149

know what you thought of it as well have you found it to be incredibly comfortable

150

and versatile as I have or maybe you're new to the channel

151

and you just want to introduce yourself to say hello or

152

if you've got a question about this shoe that I didn't cover in this review.

153

Let me know in the comments and I'll get back to you.

154

I reply to everyone.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
