HOKA Mach 5

HOKA ONE has already made it a tradition that the first novelty for the new season is its Mach family, which comes with the update of these mixed shoes HOKA Mach 5, which fits perfectly to the runner who wants a light and dynamic model but with very good cushioning.

In terms of design and technologies, this new revision of the HOKA Mach 5 is not a radical change from previous editions. Given that its superior performance in lightness and cushioning have positioned it as an ideal running shoe for daily workouts at different distances, and that it responds optimally when it comes to accelerating the pace and increasing the intensity, it is logical to think that the product developers of the American brand touch only what is necessary to maximize the runner's running experience Mach 5

What's new about the new HOKA Mach 5?

So, it seems non-negotiable that these HOKA Mach 5 will skip the script and not maintain the essence of the HOKA Mach range: shoe with very good cushioning and great lightness to move at fast paces whenever necessary. And indeed, these Mach 5 from HOKA deliver .

In this sense, the Mach 5 from has an agile and dynamic behavior, thanks to the midsole with the Profly+ compound, which provides a soft and pleasant cushioning. We are talking about a high-performance material that HOKA has incorporated in one of its reference racing shoes as the second version of the HOKA ONE ONE Carbon X with carbon plate. It is also important to mention the Meta-Rocker geometry that creates a seesaw effect to propel the runner into lighter transitions.

The main improvements of these HOKA ONE ONE Mach 5 are aimed at correcting the problems of the previous version. Such as excessive stiffness for a daily training shoe. But, on the other hand, the product designers are betting on a new redesign that updates its upper to improve the feeling of fit, and thus make it an even more friendly model that adapts better to the foot. Smooth transitions without neglecting protection is the premise to follow in the fifth edition of the Mach. In addition, the upper of this model has been made from recycled and vegan material.

The outsole mounts a highly wear-resistant rubber compound that favors an impeccable performance on asphalt surfaces.
