HOKA - the Deckers Brands company that continued to take the running world by storm in 2024 - is pushing the envelope even further with a new adventure hiker, the Kaha 3 GTX.

The performance hiker is available in both mid and low versions for men and women, the hiking shoe provides a softer fit and increased durability than previous iterations.

Updated with GORE-TEX Invisible Fit for superior comfort and highlighted by a cushy sockliner, the the new Kaha 3 GTX features a dual-density sugarcane EVA midsole, an achilles-friendly heel collar and a reinforced toe cap for any length of hike on any surface.

The HOKA Kaha 3 GTX ($240) and Kaha 3 GTX Low ($220) is available now in multiple stylish colorways at HOKA.com, HOKA retail locations and select retail partners.

As the brand's first-ever mid-cut hiker with GORE-TEX Invisible Fit technology, the Kaha 3 GTX provides breathable and waterproof protection with an improved fit.

The HOKA Kaha 3 GTX arrives in core colorways including sea moss/oat milk, raw linen/oat milk, asteroid/yuzu and black/black while the low is featured in an additional eucalyptus/birch option. Both shoes are also available now in a seasonal anchor/gemstone design.

HOKA's Leather Working Group Gold-Rated waterproof nubuck leather provides durability and protection on the upper, while the mesh lining features 100% recycled polyester for a lighter environmental footprint.

Meanwhile, the quick-lace metal hooks at the ankle make for getting the hiker on and off easily and to ensure quick adjustments on the trail. Designed for both day hikes and multi-day adventures, the Kaha 3 GTX delivers enhanced bounce, improved traction and long-lasting comfort.

Topped off with a Vibram Megagrip outsole for traction on loose terrain, the Kaha 3 GTX is available in both mid and low profiles for two uniquely different wearing options.
