A ROAD RUNNING ROCKET.

250$ | 231 G. | 5MM DROP

A tip-of-the-spear product geared for elite runners, the Rocket X 2 has been amplified with a hyper-focus on construction. We’ve remastered the geometry of our propulsive carbon fiber plate, sandwiching it between two layers of a brand-new, ultra-responsive, high-performance foam.

Employing a technical synthetic mesh upper for a foot-hugging fit, this front-of-the-pack shoe enlists a sleek gusset and internal midfoot cage for race-ready lockdown.

HOKA ROCKET X 2: CONCLUSION

Overall, the Hoka Rocket X 2 is a high-performance running shoe that is ideal for fast training runs, tempo runs, and races as have been seen with the previous version, which was one of the most favorites in the triathletes sponsored by the brand and now with this new version, we have “finally” a marathon ready Hoka shoe as we saw in marathons like Boston or Chicago.

It is designed to help us run faster and more efficiently, while also providing a comfortable and cushioned ride and falls into the category of fast carbon shoes for long distances, similar to models like the Adidas Adizero Adio Pro 3, the Nike Alphafly 2, ASICS Metaspeed Sky or the Saucony Endorphin Pro.

In summary a fast competition shoe perfect for running long distances at high speed, but can be also used for lower distances, as the benefits of the PROFLY X midsole and the carbon fiber plate are obvious to any runner now a days.

Obviously not a shoe to wear evey day in evey fast trainning otherwise the outsole will be worn out prettey soon, but definitively worth it the money if you are looking to rest some minutes into your marathon or half marathon personal bests.
