The HOKA Skyward X is a neutral all-round running shoe that is perfect for your daily run. Go for short or long runs; the Skyward X does it all. This makes it suitable for both beginners and experienced runners. The Metaspeed Sky is designed for the “stride runner”. These are runners who get their speed from lengthening their steps. Get the most out of every step with this all-round running shoe! Midsole To make your runs as comfortable as possible, HOKA has added super critical EVA foam. This foam has enormous cushioning and offers effective protection during your runs, whatever type of run it is. The material is therefore very reactive and provides a lot of comfort. The EVA insole offers a flexible fit and extra support where you need it. The implemented carbon plate will give your running experience a speed boost and provide extra stability. This full-length plate propels you forward and lengthens your stride. Upper The shoe has reflective details on the upper to provide extra visibility in the dark. The shoe is very breathable thanks to the jacquard mesh upper. This material features textured yarns that allow sweat to escape and keep feet cool. Because the mesh follows every step of the foot, it provides comfort and support. With this shoe, the bottom of the heel is reinforced while the top is flexible, soft and comfortable. This will not put pressure on your heel bone. Wear sole The outsole is made of durabrasion rubber and has a coarse profile for great grip on any type of surface. Zones of abrasion-resistant rubber have been added to the heel and forefoot for improved durability. The geometry of the outsole is designed to ensure inherent stability and an efficient stride. The HOKA Skyward X, the all-rounder you can count on every run!
