Expert Review Sources

  • Doctors of Running : 84.1 / 100 — « Across our daily trainer testing on road, the HOKA Skyflow supports the gait cycle with a stable HOKA proprietary foam base and smooth forefoot rocker (282 g). A smart choice for runners looking for a 8.7 mm drop and consistent performance all season long. »
  • RunRepeat : 83.6 / 100 — « We found the HOKA Skyflow to be a well-rounded daily trainer that performs admirably across the board—durability, cushioning, stability, comfort, and value. While we think it’s a bit stiffer than we’d prefer, it’s a fantastic debut for this new series. In our view, it’s a good pick for runners seeking more foam underfoot compared to the Mach and Clifton, offering a great balance of features for a variety of runs. »
  • The Running Collective : 82.1 / 100 — « Pairing HOKA's HOKA proprietary foam platform with a 8.7 mm drop, the Skyflow delivers a smooth, dependable ride powered by its HOKA proprietary foam midsole. Its upper lockdown and outsole durability on road make it a standout contender at €180. »
