The speedy Mach X trainer-racer (33% off) is one of the brand's most springy running options while the burly and protective Kaha 2 GTX hikers (40% off) are a must-have for anyone who likes to hike. Other picks, like the supportive and stable Arahi (31% off) are a great choice for running and everyday wear, too. Men's Journal dug deep into the Nordstrom Rack clearance section to find the best hidden gems—these are the top Hoka kicks to shop right now before they sell out.
Hoka Mach X, $120 (was $180) at Nordstrom Rack
Like to go fast? The Hoka Mach X will help you do it. This dual-purpose shoe is designed for both speed training and racing, and it features some unique tech to help you set and maintain fast paces. The Mach X midsole is made with PEBA foam, an exceptionally light, soft, and bouncy material, and it’s paired with a carbon plate that stiffens the shoe and helps you get maximum energy return in each step. Translation? This shoe offers great comfort and a peppy, lively underfoot feel that’ll help you zip through your training routine or your next road race.
What Shoppers Are Saying: “I have never run in a shoe that is simultaneously so fast and so soft. It's not as extreme as a racing shoe, but it does offer a good bounce and reduces recovery time after fast workouts.”

Hoka Kaha 2 GTX Waterproof Hiking Boot, $145 (was $240) at Nordstrom Rack
Hoka’s Kaha 2 GTX delivers superior comfort for trail adventures. Hoka threw everything and the kitchen sink into this hiking boot: a plush and supportive dual-density EVA midsole, a MetaRocker sole shape for smooth transitions, burly Vibram MegaGrip outsole for superb traction, and a waterproof Gore-Tex upper to keep mud, rain, and splashes from soaking you. For long treks in the wilderness, this is the shoe you’ll want on your feet.
What Shoppers Are Saying: “They are sturdy and absorb a lot of shock that thinner hiking shoes might not. Perfect for scrambling and feeling comfortable on rocky terrain.”

Hoka Stinson ATR 7, $110 (was $170) at Nordstrom Rack
Can’t choose between trails and pavement? With the Stinson ATR 7 on your feet, you don’t have to. This versatile road-to-trail shoe offers a plush ride and go-anywhere grip. The midsole features Hoka’s iconic pillowy cushioning, and an embedded “H-frame” supports your feet for confident footing no matter where you’re running. On the bottom, a toothy lugged rubber outsole generates lockdown traction on the dirt but still feels comfortable on concrete, too. The cherry on top? This shoe earned the Seal of Acceptance from the American Podiatric Medical Association, meaning it was reviewed by doctors and found to benefit foot health.
What Shoppers Are Saying: “Way more stable than I thought a shoe with this stack height could have achieved…impressive, really. I love my Bondis, but sometimes they feel too ‘floaty’ and unstable. Well, these cured that issue with flying colors. Great all-around shoes. Good for road or trail…even decent for golf.”

Hoka Arahi 7, $100 (was $145) at Nordstrom Rack
Hoka’s take on a stability shoe, the Arahi 7 offers a supportive ride for road running. The compression-molded EVA midsole soaks up impact forces for a soft underfoot feel, and it’s paired with a firm “J-frame” layer that supports the heel and the medial side of the foot and keeps it aligned within the shoe as you run. The flat-knit upper has plenty of padding for a comfy fit, and zones of rubber in high-wear areas on the outsole offer dependable grip and high-mileage durability. Like the Stinson above, the Arahi also earned an APMA Seal of Acceptance, so you can lace these up with confidence knowing they’ll keep your feet happy.
What Shoppers Are Saying: “I am on my feet all the livelong day (Veterinary Nurse in Emergency). These are so far the best shoes I have worn and I have been doing this for 15 years.”
