HEEL HEIGHT: 37 mm
FOREFOOT HEIGHT: 32 mm
The Hoka RINCON 4 men's running shoes are a new line of popular shoes that combine surprising cushioning and exceptional softness. This new version is redesigned from top to bottom for an even better running experience. The dual-layer midsole now offers better bounce while being very durable, increasing the shoe's lifespan. This important element works with rubberized EVA for an even softer step forward. The rubber sole also has a longer life (but the final durability depends on a lot of different variables) and hugs the foot comfortably. A very important element of the shoe is the specially modified META-ROCKER geometry, which enables a very pleasant transition between the heel and the toe.
The double jacquard upper is highly breathable, the padded tongue ensures comfort. The heel area with ACTIVE FOOT FRAME technology perfectly holds the heel and securely sinks the foot into the midsole.
ADVANTAGES:
- great cushioning and softness
- comfortable transition from heel to toe
- durable sole
- double-layer midsole
- breathable upper
- good heel hold
ACTIVE FOOT FRAME
Heel stabilization. ACTIVE FOOT FRAME technology works on the principle of seats in a race car. It holds the heel and securely inserts the foot into the midsole.

META-ROCKER
META-ROCKER technology features a specially modified midsole geometry. It is therefore a rounding of the midsole, the so-called "cradle", which compensates for the difference between the heel and the toe. Technology helps to use energy efficiently at every step and drives us forward.

EVA
The name EVA stands for Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate. It is a type of copolymer that combines the properties of plastic and rubber. Sports brands use this material in the form of foam, from which they make midsoles and sometimes insoles for shoes.
The widespread use of this foam is due to its excellent properties.
- lightness → one of the biggest advantages that affects the overall weight of the shoe
- shock absorption → cushions every step forward, which your knees will especially appreciate; it can absorb shocks from your steps and thus increases comfort when running and walking (even over longer distances)
- flexibility - the EVA material is very flexible and elastic, allowing natural movement and adaptation to the foot
- durability - in general, this material is resistant to cracking and wear, but of course after really long use it can easily get crushed
- thermal insulation - keeps the foot warm in cold weather, and in summer resists hot surfaces
- water resistance - the closed cell structure of EVA foam does not absorb water, so this material is also used in outdoor shoes
- affordability - compared to advanced cushioning materials, the production of EVA foam is relatively cheaper, which is also reflected in the resulting price of the shoe
