Making its way to the starting line is the highly anticipated second iteration of HOKA's supershoe, the Rocket X 2. From top to bottom, the HOKA Rocket X 2 has been updated to meet the needs of HOKA's world class athletes as well as the running community as whole. The newly designed midsole features two layers of an ultra-responsive peba foam with a full-length carbon fiber plate sandwiched in between. The pairing of the foam and carbon fiber plate results in a highly propulsive and stable ride from start to finish. Add that combination to the rocker geometry and strategic foam cutouts underfoot and you've got yourself a serious contender to set a personal best.
The outsole has been carefully crafted to maximize grip while keeping weight as low as possible by implementing a zonal rubber placement design. The midsole foam cutout in the outsole not only yields weight savings, but it also allows the plate to accentuate the bounce and springiness that is desired in a marathon racer. Not only will you be running fast in the HOKA Rocket X 2, but you'll also be running in comfort thanks to the race ready fit of the technical synthetic mesh upper that is equal parts breathable and secure. With all the characteristics you'd want in a super shoe, the HOKA Rocket X 2 will have you ready for take-off at your next race.
