Hoka Mach 7
The Mach 7 continues the supercritical EVA formula that made the Mach 6 a favorite, with an updated upper and slightly improved outsole coverage. It stays a light, versatile daily trainer that can pick up the pace without a plate. If the Clifton is Hoka's easy shoe, this is the do-everything one.
