Energetic Vibrant Running Shoes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

HOKA ONE ONE's Rocket X Deflects Energy Back to Wearers

— November 3, 2020 — Lifestyle
HOKA ONE ONE introduces the new Rocket X sneaker silhouette described by the brand to be "one of the most energetic to date." The shoe is constructed similarly to the label's Carbon X trainer that launched last year. The engineered running silhouette is designed to cater to the needs of experienced runners.

It is lightweight and progressive, informed with responsive carbon fiber at the midsole foundation. It features the lightest foam ever in the brand's history and accompanies a soft midsole. The upper is made from mesh and has breathable elements to continue with the lightweight sensibility. The outsole is made from rubberized foam to reduce the weight as well, allowing wearers to be fast and efficient.
