Why We Love This Deal
Hoka is known for its comfy, well-cushioned running shoes. The Bondi is the perfect choice for maximum cushion and plushness underfoot, whereas the Clifton offers a balanced ride that’s great for everyday training, and the Mach is a leaner option that’s good for speed workouts. But Hoka makes more than just running shoes, and right now, one of its best—the super versatile Kawana 2 sneaker—is a rare 29% off.
The Hoka Kawana 2 is on sale for $99, down from its normal price of $140. This is the second round of markdowns Hoka has placed on this style, which means sizes are going to start to fly—they usually do during this second markdown period.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Colorways Available: 2 on sale, 8 total
- Sizes Available: 8-14
- Best Use Case: The Kawana 2 is designed for smooth strides and lateral movements, making it a great choice for cross-training and gym workouts. It also works well for casual wear.
The Kawana is a little different from Hoka’s more well-known offerings. Unlike the Bondi or Mach, this shoe isn’t designed specifically for running. Instead, it’s geared toward cross-training and everyday wear.
It features a cushioned midsole, and the mesh upper has an internal bootie and plenty of padding around the ankle collar for a comfortable fit. The shoe is designed to offer good support even when you’re moving side-to-side—something that most running shoes lack. Finally, a gum rubber outsole generates reliable grip indoors and out.

What Shoppers Are Saying
The Kawana has impressed Hoka shoppers with its comfortable ride and versatility. Some wear it for work (it’s great for long days on your feet), others wear it while hiking and running, and others use it as a gym shoe. But everyone seems to agree on one thing: It’s super comfortable.
“The shoe is comfortable, light, and just feels fast while on my feet,” said one shopper. Another called it “phenomenal” and “a great gym shoe” with “comfort in all the right places.”
SneaA versatile shoe like Hoka’s Kawana 2 is always a welcome addition to any footwear rotation, and you’ll be glad to have this sporty, comfy shoe in your closet—especially now that it’s 29% off. Grab yours today before your size sells out.
