HOKA’s Stealth/Tech collection lives up to its name, delivering a duo of techy, stealthy-looking sneakers. 

The ultra-bulky Bondi 8 Caged and rugged Tecton X 2 models, developed for road running and trail running respectively, have both undergone aesthetic upgrades through new paint jobs. 

Both shoes come in a brown-colored makeover with reflective detailing (although, the Tecton X 2 does include some hits of black on the sole and knitted upper). It’s a color execution not too dissimilar from HOKA’s previous SATISFY collaborations, arguably its best ongoing partnership.

If you weren’t able to get your hands on the Satisfy HOKA Mafate Speed 4 Lite or Clifton LS in brown, these might be your next best option. 

More minimal than their technical running counterparts, with big hits of HOKA branding removed, this is a lifestyle-focused release. However, with features like propulsive carbon-fiber plates and ultra-lightweight foam, they’re embedded with many of HOKA’s cutting-edge innovations

Days after the announcement of a wild, but similarly brown-colored recovery shoe in collaboration with paria /FARZANEH, the HOKA Stealth/Tech collection is available now with the Bondi 8 Caged retailing for $165 and the Tecton X 2 costing $225.

Once again, HOKA takes its speed-oriented shoes and transforms them into chunked-up casual sneakers.

If you want to wear HOKAs outside of running, there have never been more lifestyle-oriented options to choose from
