HOKA was founded in 2009 in the French Alps by Nicolas Mermoud and Jean-Luc Diard, who set out to design a shoe for faster, forgiving downhill running. Their signature approach introduced maximum cushioning and a rocker shape to running gear. Most cushioned on the market, products include the bestselling and most well-known styles such as Bondi 9, Clifton 10, Speedgoat 6 Trail and Mafate.
