Customer Reviews Hoka Carbon X

I've had an issue in my foot that my doctor thinks is just from not having shoes that support enough. He recommended these sneakers and they are definitely supportive. I've been wearing only these sneakers for about 3 weeks now, and my foot is starting to feel better.

I used to have pair of the same shoes and after so many good feeling miles I wanted to buy them again This are great running/performing shoes. I felt it from the first mile and fall in love with them I ordered new one in different colors and I'm so so happy how the not only works but also how they looks Simply they are awesome

A friend recommend these shoes for my son. Her college age daughter had terrible shin splints ........ I really didn't think they would make that much difference, but my son had immediate relief. He now has two pair.

No lie, I just ran the fastest mile and 2 miles of ~8,700 miles on Strava in these shoes during a recent 30 min tempo. Sure I was rested, and there was a tailwind and a downward slope and all, but the fastest mile and 2 miles of maybe my adult life?? And I ran my last long run of 22 miles in them leading up to using these as my race day shoe. And felt strong late in that run. They did require some transitioning coming from Cliftons so probably shouldn't lace them up for the first time on the actual race day.

I normally run 20-25 miles per week. I am also a middle school teacher. I decided to buy these when a friend recommended them to wear at school. My school has concrete floors and my knees and feet were killing me at the end of the day. Since wearing these shoes, I have felt no pain and energized at the end of the day!

Very comfortable and lightweight. Only run a few times, but no complaints. I wear a 13, however it was too big, had to go sown a half.

lightweight but feels quite stable. best looking running shoes I've had in a while!

Daily training shoe for me. Carbon plate provides opportunity to run faster with slightly less effort and makes running more fun for me. The Carbon X shoes provide a more stable base than either the NIke Zoom Fly shoes (which I've used also for daily training) or the Nike Vapor Fly 4% shoes (which I've used for racing only).

I have ordered size 11 but it was quite tight for me. So, I did the exchange process. Unbelievable! the exchange process went faster than I thought, how impressive! It seems to me that the company really cares for the customers even though that process was taken during the COVID19 pandemic.

I love getting 1/2 sizes. A 12 is too small and a13 is too big. 12 1/2 is all me.

I've used the X for about about half dozen shorter runs and so far I love them! They're firm,fast and comfortable. Definitely would recommend.

Lov em

using this in the army. Awesome shoe. Super comfy and performs well. You notice the carbon plate but it doesn't feel overly agressive. It really only works if you have good running form though, if you are a heal runner you wont feel it as much

The Carbon X has exceeding my expectations in every way. They felt great right out of the box. Awesome quality and they look great!

I wear them as much as I can! They're the perfect blend of comfort, stability, and support.

Great design. Seems durable. Really good feel. Typically I'm a size 13 in Nikes but I ended up having to exchange the 13s for 12.5s in tg=he Carbon Xs. Well worth the wait

Fast and responsive. Worth the price

I love this sneaker and holy cow is it fast. Since purchasing the sneaker a little less than a month ago, I've had two personal bests in the 5k and a personal best in the 10k (these personal bests have also occurred within two months of having recovered from a torn meniscus). The sneaker also stays comfortable on long runs.

If you've never run in shoes with a carbon plate, you're missing out. This is my third pair, and these are by far my favorite running shoes I've ever owned (and I'm a sneaker head). I'm a marathoner and ultramarathoner (a slow one) who can average 450500 miles per pair. After first testing these at a running shoe event where I was able to run a mile in different shoes from several brands, I was sold. I've been a Hoka fan since the Clifton 2.

I'm by no means a big runner. 15-20mi a week at the most. These have helped my....stout frame to lessen the pounding on my lower legs.

Just a great shoe, stable, fast, light, breathable.... Must try

Shoes are really light and toe box is roomy.

As a 60 year old coming back to running I'm loving these shoes. And when they got here the box was so light I wondered if there was only one shoe inside. Both shoes were there and they are really light. I like the laces too. Not the usual cheap plastic woven tubes.
