HOKA Gaviota 6 vs On Cloudrunner 3

The On Cloudrunner 3 and HOKA Gaviota 6 are two support trainers from popular brands, but they deliver guidance and comfort in very different ways. The HOKA relies on its H-Frame system, a firmer foam structure shaped like an H that adds support on both sides of the foot. It is also higher stacked and more protective while still being lighter, which makes it a more capable option overall. The On uses a structured heel clip and raised sidewalls to guide the foot, with the support feeling more focused at the rearfoot and more reliant on firmness to control movement.
