MAAP & HOKA Unite Cycling & Running in Limited-Edition Tecton X2
HOKAhas tapped a new partner outside of its running specialty, merging its vision for performance footwear withMAAP's cycling-centered ethos. Together, the Australian cycling brand and the ubiquitous running label have reimagined HOKA's Tectonic X2 with heightened aerodynamic aesthetics and design details borrowed from MAAP's distinct cycling wear.
Misha Glisovic, MAAP's Chief Creative Officer, commented, 'We're seeing more and more crossover between fashion and endurance sports, and that speaks to a broader desire to get outside and incorporate movement into our everyday lives.' Thomas Cykana of Global Collaborations at HOKA added, 'Our teams have come together as genuinely like-minded groups who appreciate the combined art & science that fuels running & cycling in the modern marketplace.'
Featuring HOKA's celebrated Tecton X 2 sole with a propulsive parallel carbon plate, the shoe is available in a signature 'limeade' colorway. Though the model is accented with pops of aqua on the interior, lime green on the laces and heel, and dark green on the outsole, the body is dominated by a neutral off-white, showcased on the cushioned midsoles, textile uppers, and sleek overlays.
HOKA hands the wheel to MAAP in this collaboration, allowing its hallmarks to stand out loud and clear. In addition to being woven into the neon-hued laces, MAAP's wordmark is also found on a purple strip above the toe box and insoles. Front and center of the lateral panel is a reflective stripe, mirroring a key detail incorporated into performance cycling shirts and shorts.
The HOKA x MAAP Tecton X2 will launch exclusively at MAAP stores on July 11, followed by a global release onMAAP.cc andHOKA.comon July 15 for $230 USD. MAAP also plans to host a series of community experiences on July 12 at select locations in Melbourne, Los Angeles, and Berlin.

Why Deckers Outdoor Stock Jumped Today
Key Points Despite concerns about tariff-related headwinds, Deckers reported strong growth on the top and bottom lines in the first quarter. The company expects a $185 million increase in cost of goods sold this year from tariffs. Second-quarter guidance called for its growth to slow. 10 stocks we like better than Deckers Outdoor › Shares of Deckers Outdoor (NYSE: DECK), the global footwear company with brands like Hoka and UGG, were climbing today after the company delivered better-than-expected results in its first-quarter report. Coming after the stock plunged earlier in the year on fears of tariff-related headwinds and weakening consumer sentiment, the results helped reassure investors that its growth story was still intact. As of 12:21 p.m. ET on Friday, the stock was up 11.7% on the news. Deckers is still growing Revenue growth accelerated from the previous quarter, growing 17% to $964.5 million, largely due to the international market. That result was well ahead of the consensus analyst estimate of $900.4 million. Growth at both of its marquee brands was strong, with Hoka revenue rising 19.8% to $653.1 million, and UGG sales up 18.9% to $265.1 million during a seasonally slow quarter for the sheepskin boot brand. Sales at its other brands, which make up a small percentage of the business, fell 19% to $46.3 million. With the direct-to-consumer and its domestic segments weak, the company picked up the slack in wholesale and international sales. Wholesale revenue jumped 26.7% to $652.4 million, which is key because the wholesale channel tends to drive more full-price sales. International sales increased 49.7% to $463.3 million, nearly making up half of its total, driven in part by strength in China. Gross margin fell from 56.9% to 55.8%, but operating income jumped from $132.8 million to $165.3 million, and earnings per share (EPS) rose from $0.75 to $0.93, well ahead of estimates at $0.68. In a quarter when analysts were expecting a decline in EPS, it instead rose by 24%. What's next for Deckers Given the monster beat, the stock could have jumped more, but Deckers still sees headwinds related to tariffs, saying it expects costs of goods sold to increase $185 million because of new tariffs, representing nearly 4% of revenue. For the second quarter, the company expects revenue of $1.38 billion to $1.42 billion, up 7% at the midpoint, and EPS of $1.50 to $1.55, which compares to $1.59 a year ago. While the guidance indicates management still expects a slowdown from the current quarter, the stock looks like a good buy at a price-to-earnings ratio of just 18.

Wall Street's winning week ends with more records for stocks
NEW YORK — Stocks capped another strong week with more records on Friday. The S&P 500 rose 0.4% to set an all-time high, the fifth time it did so this week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 208 points, or 0.5%, and the Nasdaq composite added 0.2% to its own record set the day before. Deckers, the company behind Ugg boots and Hoka shoes, jumped 11.3% after reporting stronger profit and revenue for the spring than analysts expected. Its growth was particularly strong outside the United States, where revenue soared nearly 50%. Edwards Lifesciences rose 5.5% after likewise topping Wall Street's expectations for profit in the latest quarter. It said it saw strength across all its product groups, and it expects profit for the full year to come in at the high end of the forecasted range it had given earlier. They helped offset a drop of 8.5% for Intel, which fell after reporting a loss for the latest quarter, when analysts were looking for a profit. The struggling chipmaker also said it would cut thousands of jobs and eliminate other expenses as it tries to turn around its fortunes. Intel, which helped launch Silicon Valley as the U.S. technology hub, has fallen behind rivals like Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices while demand for artificial intelligence chips soars. All told, the S&P 500 rose 25.29 points to 6,388.64. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 208.01 to 44,901.92, and the Nasdaq composite added 50.36 to 21,108.32. The pressure is on companies to deliver solid growth in profits in order to justify big gains for their stock prices, which have rallied to record after record in recent weeks. Wall Street has zoomed higher on hopes that President Donald Trump will reach trade deals with other countries that will lower his stiff proposed tariffs, along with the risk that they could cause a recession and drive up inflation. Trump has recently announced deals with Japan and the Philippines, and the next big deadline is looming on Friday, Aug. 1. Besides potential trade talks, next week will also feature a meeting by the Federal Reserve on interest rates. Trump again on Thursday lobbied the Fed to cut rates, which he has implied could save the U.S. government money on its debt repayments. Fed Chair Jerome Powell, though, has continued to insist he wants to wait for more data about how Trump's tariffs affect the economy and inflation before the Fed makes its next move. Lower interest rates can help goose the economy, but they can also give inflation more fuel. Lower rates also may not lower the U.S. government's costs to borrow money, if the bond market feels they could send inflation higher in the future. In that case, lower short-term rates brought by the Fed could actually have the opposite effect and make it more expensive for Washington to borrow money over the long term. The widespread expectation on Wall Street is that the Fed will wait until September to resume cutting interest rates. In the bond market, Treasury yields held relatively steady following Trump's latest attempt to push Powell to cut interest rates. Trump also seemed to back off on threats to fire the Fed's chair. 'To do that is a big move, and I don't think that's necessary,' Trump said. 'I just want to see one thing happen, very simple: Interest rates come down.' If Trump fired Powell, he'd risk a freak-out in financial markets by raising the possibility of a less independent Fed, one unable to make unpopular choices necessary to keep the economy healthy. The yield on the 10-year Treasury eased to 4.38% from 4.43% late Thursday. The two-year Treasury yield, which more closely tracks expectations for what the Fed will do, held steady at 3.91%, where it was late Thursday. In stock markets abroad, indexes slipped across much of Europe and Asia. Stocks fell 1.1% in Hong Kong and 0.3% in Shanghai. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has said he will meet with Chinese officials in Sweden next week to work toward a trade deal with Beijing ahead of an Aug. 12 deadline. Trump has said a China trip 'is not too distant' as trade tensions ease. Choe writes for the Associated Press.
