The Plushiest Ride on the road
Hoka threw out the rulebook when creating the Skyward X. Pushing soft and smooth to the extreme, this cushy new trainer features a revolutionary suspension system with a convex carbon fiber plate that allows the suspension system to compress and spring back with each step. A soft, highly resilient PEBA foam sits closest to the foot for a lively, cushioned ride, while a premium EVA foam frame provides a stable base for your easiest miles yet.
Make for a comfortable,bouncey ride.
I have completed a few runs in these and must say I am very happy with them. Great response and transition feels smooth. Planning a few longer runs and a marathon in the next month so fingers crossed I still love them as much.
I’ve been a runner for a long long time and I’m not getting any younger. Running in your 60’s can be a challenge - these shoes make me feel young again. A soft and plush ride but not squishy or unstable. The extra boost from the carbon plate is clearly felt and I’m not a fast runner anymore. I’ve tried every brand there is and many models and I can honestly say that these are the BEST ever. I plan to be able to run for many more years thanks to these Hokas. They may be pricey but aren’t you worth it?
