Torrent 5
Torrent 5 is a nimble fifth-generation trail shoe for daily mileage and technical terrain. HOKA adds stack over its predecessor for more impact protection while retaining responsive EVA and Smooth MetaRocker geometry for quick transitions. Perforated engineered mesh, a rear-foot Active Foot Frame, and a protective rand secure the foot, while aggressive lugs in high-abrasion rubber grip rough ground.
