Hoka just does not get it right. They sponsor the athletes no one can relate with or some foreign athlete that no American kid can follow or wants to follow.

Well it’s a start they are dumping the marathon mom gang.

True but the athletes left in Naz elite are literally the least appealing to any high school kid. That group is so odd from the athletes to the coaches. I have nothing against them and hope they succeed. I really do but I’m just being honest.

Don’t hate the messenger
The phrase "don't hate the messenger" doesn't really apply when you're sharing an opinion.

Footlocker is awful now anyway. Especially with a 30+ year old dude calling himself a toad.
I think Hoka is trying to do a reset on naz elite. They didn’t resign the older athletes that were frankly outdated. This is a business and no one can run forever
How does having NIL athletes at Footlocker XC champs lead to your conclusion that their athletes have no appeal?
For example they had a NIL girl that is slower than the high school runners there. I understand because no one wants to hang with the Naz elite athletes. The entire setting was forced.

Its Hoka everyone what do we except
You didn’t answer my question nor support your claim that “no one wants to hang with the Naz elite athletes”.

What do we except, indeed.
Im not the original poster but I think Hoka has no appeal with their pros. I agree on this assessment. Most are just some foreigner that is semi fast that no other company wanted to pay so Hoka took them. Or they have some old mom that is 40 or close to it.
If you think that’s appealing to high school elite athlete, then maybe you should work for Hoka unless you already do. I’m thinking that might be it.

Luis Grijalva is great for them. I’ve heard he’s switching to Nike for Mike Smiths group. That’s the rumor anyway.

1. No, NAZ elite’s roster is not “mostly some foreigners”
2. Claiming that “some old mom” has no brand appeal in running shows that you are wildly out of touch.

Bro is defending Hoka with his life. You must work for them.
HOKA seems to be offering NILs to runners who also have strong character. That’s an honorable approach. They just hosted high school Foot Locker where the kids had a great time. They brought in a personality Billy the Toad to connect with some of the quieter kids and got them hyped up and having fun. Maybe the boring negative adults don’t connect with that? Wasn’t for them anyway. HOKA is trying to break into the younger athlete market. Who cares? Why ya hating? Don’t like em? Don’t buy em. Move on.
