Why We Love This Deal
The snow is almost fully melted where I live, and I am practically vibrating with excitement to hit the trails for some spring hiking. That means I’m also dusting off my hiking shoes—and deciding if they can hold up through another season. They may last, but this Hoka deal is really tempting me to upgrade: The brand’s highly rated low-top Anacapa hikers just hit the sale section at a major discount.
The Hoka Anacapa Breeze Low is on sale for $108, a rare 30% discount from its normal price of $155. It’s available in one sleek black colorway at that price (a second colorway is on sale for $124). Hoka’s deal beats any other retailer for this shoe: It’s a better price here than at Dick’s Sporting Goods and other outlets.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Colorways Available: 1 for $108, 1 for $124
- Sizes Available: 8½-12½
- Weight: 12.4 ounces
- Drop: 8mm
- Best For: Casual wear, warm-weather hikes
The Anacapa Breeze Low is the lightest model in Hoka’s Anacapa line, and it’s a stellar choice for hikes and everyday walking in warm weather (check out the GTX version if you need weatherproofing and the mid-top variant if you prefer a hiking boot).
It’s built with a mesh synthetic upper that’s optimized for ventilation and breathability, so it’ll keep your feet from overheating on long treks. The upper has a padded ankle collar and a large heel tab for a comfortable fit and support for your Achilles tendon, too.
While it’s not waterproof, the shoe does wear a DWR finish to ward off light splashes and raindrops, and a molded sockliner pairs with Hoka’s signature EVA midsole to soak up bumps and support your feet. On the bottom, the Anacapa Breeze rides on a full-length Vibram Megagrip rubber outsole—the gold standard for traction among hiking shoes.

What Shoppers Are Saying
Reading over the reviews, it’s surprising to see the many ways shoppers have used the Anacapa Breeze Low. Some wear the shoes for hardcore backcountry hiking, while others prefer them as an everyday walking shoe—but all shoppers agree they’re awesome.
Reviewers praised their “super comfortable and versatile” build, and several shoppers who suffered from foot pain said the Anacapas offered excellent support and helped them stay pain-free. While typical walking shoes struggle in off-pavement scenarios, these kicks shine: Shoppers said they’re “very grippy” and have “excellent stability on loose or off-camber terrain.” One even proclaimed them “the perfect lightweight hiking shoe.”
Hoka shoes always sell fast when they pop up in the sale section, especially with a significant 30% discount. Many sizes of the Anacapa Breeze Low are already sold out, so don’t wait: Scoop your pair ASAP before your size disappears, too.
