Hi all. I’m a competitive 50-54 age grouper with dicey knees. Hoka shoes helped. When they released the Rocket X2, it was a game changer. It was easy on my knees and fast AF. I think Hoka has completely lost their way. A new model every week, but nothing geared to sprint/oly distances at a fast pace. The X2 is a GREAT shoe. Mine are near their end of life and I can’t find another pair in ...
Observations: 1) The wide platform is stable, protecting from rolling an ankle. But, if you do roll it, there is a lot of leverage and sprains are more severe than on a lower shoe. I have "problem" ankles and have rolled them three times in my Hokas, taking me out for 6-8 weeks each time. 2) I hate the unisex last.

I have been injury prone for almost 2 years now, mostly lateral knee issues. I have also been through many different types of shoes and inserts without any relief.
TheStroBro December 5, 2021, 5:44pm 1. Three Shoes will have mid-soles that in-part feature a HOKA specific SCEVA compound that they call ProFlyX. Both the Road and Trail Product Line Managers discussed the 2022 line of shoes with Believe in the Run. Two Road Shoes-.
Despite their huge cushioning, the Hoka’s have minimal drop (like 4-5mm). That’s gonna tighten up your calves and pf even more if you’re not used to it. Most trainers are 8-11mm, and that’s probably what you’re used to. Going to a lower drop shoe will likely aggravate the pf.
Hello. On recent Hoka shoes, on the medial side of the midsole, some data appears : S with 2 numbers V with 1 number W with 1 number (or C 001 if a carbon plate) W (weight) indicate the weight in grams for size 9 (for men shoes). This is coherent with all shoes I checked. V (volume) apparently indicate the volume of the midsole in cm3 for size ...
Went on sale yesterday or today. I ordered a pair and should have them next week. Looking forward to trying them out. I said in another thread these shoes are going to be a potential problem at IM and other tri races because people love their Hokas and these are illegal at 48mm of stack. Folks are going to love them when training in them and will want to use them to run the 13.1 or 26.2 in ...
npage148 January 23, 2014, 4:25am 3. Well they are the fastest 10 Oz shoe on the market so unless you are use to wearing racing flats or a lightweight trainer for speed work you should be fine. . I’ve been wearing the Hoka Bondis for awhile now. Because on an injury it’s the only shoe I can wear at the moment.
My one injury is a black toe suffered when I took notice of Slowtwitch wisdom to go back to training in “ordinary shoes” in my case Hoka (something or other). One week and one black toe later I went back to the Puma’s. I’m a 1:80 height 80 kilo weight septuagenarian who never wins the run part and never will.
Do Hoka shoes give you blisters when sockless? Which models have you tried? I searched the forum and found a handful of reports of blisters from seams in Hokas, and one report of no problems. I’d be interested to hear from a few more people about experiences running sockless in them to build a better picture, please. Until a recent ankle injury I’d been mostly very happy with the somewhat ...
