Couldn't concentrate on what you were saying 'cos that new Endorphin Pro Heat looks so damn awesome LOL

Did a 10k PB in the Rocket X. Found the width more accommodating than the Rincon which I find long and narrow.

Good Review Fordy ! I did my review at Run The Planet a couple days ago and basically agreed with you. Vlog is "Rocket X Review in Run" if you or your community would humble me and watch it. Thanks, Matthew

For a carbon plated shoe that pricing is excellent. The only downside for me would be the durability as Hoka midsoles tend to breakdown quicker. Will be interesting to see what happens.😀

[markhill]

So it wouldnt be a bad idea to use these as a daily trainer?

[withoutwithin]

Great review. I've heard the midsole foam doesn't last long in this. Would love to hear how it holds up after 100 miles!

[josephraby]

So would you consider the Rocket X on the softer side or firmer side?

[stephencsaplar]

Sounds a bit underwhelming but agree the latest Hoka models do fit better. I enjoy the Carbon X SPE and the Edge at the moment. 👍🏃🏻‍♂️

[aristodiga]

But looking at the midsole and thin outsole, do you think it is durable enough if it is for training?

[lvalday]

Nice review Chris. Do you think it's faster than the Speed? It's 20 USD cheaper that the Edonphin Pro so, would you recommend to buy this instead of the Speed or the Pro for training/racing? Greetings from 🇧🇴

£155 the Saucony speed. For the extra £15 I think I'd be more draw to the saucony than the hoka.

[Runningfortheeveryday]

If you had to chose, hoka rocket x or saucony endorphin speed.
