Which should you pick?

head-to-head · opinion

These are the same shoe, the HOKA Skyflow, in men's (283.5 g) and women's (244 g) versions, both high-cushion daily trainers with a 5 mm drop and no plate. Pick the one that matches your fit; the only meaningful difference is the lighter weight of the women's build. Neither is the choice if you want a snappy tempo shoe.
