Hoka One One is now in Town. Maximalist shoes is the new minimalist with Hoka and good news, it’s now available in Manila after the product was officially launched at Runnr Bonifacio Global City last March 16, 2017.
Hoke One One
The story of HOKA ONE ONE started in 2009 with Ultra Marathon champion Nico Mermoud. He needed shoes to help him run downhill fast while reducing the shock that took a toll on his legs. He then partnered with fellow athlete Jean-Luc Diard in engineering a shoe that had more cushion than traditional running shoes and a uniquely carved geometry that encouraged an efficient foot strike – thus the revolutionary, lightweight running shoe brand was born.
Over the years, HOKA has become one of the most acclaimed running shoe brands in the world, winning accolades from Competitor Magazine, Triathlete and Runners’ World. The continuous growth of HOKA can be attributed to runners of all types embracing the brand’s goal of delivering lightweight, well- cushioned shoes with an exceptional ride.
That cushioned maximalist feel is now more accessible as it’s now available at RUNNR stores in the Metro Manila. RUNNR, the Philippines’ leading running specialty store is bringing in the award-winning running shoe brand, HOKA ONE ONE®.
“We are excited to be the official distributor of HOKA ONE ONE in the Philippines. The arrival of this amazing shoe brand in the country has long been anticipated by our local roster of triathletes, ultra- distance runners and marathoners. As the leader in the local sports retail industry, we continue to support the growing Filipino running community by bringing in the best global brands,” said Toby Claudio, President of Quorum International Inc. and Founder of RUNNR.
