+ Expert opinion
With the TECTON X, Hoka has
achieved a masterpiece! It is the first manufacturer to succeed in combining
comfort, dynamics, grip, fit, protection and "running fun" at the highest
level.
Admittedly, it is not exactly
cheap with an RRP of 210 €, but it offers outstanding overall performance! It
only reaches its limits in extreme mud.
The Litebase sole provides a very
good grip overall. The implemented carbon plates can shift against each other
and thus create a better ground contact on challenging terrain. The protection
is also at a high level. The ProFly midsole construction with two EVA foams of
different hardness and the parallel carbon plates achieves absolute best values
for trail shoes. The META (EARLY) rocker supports the rolling motion in a
pleasantly progressive manner. All in all, the Tecton X is for me a further
improvement on the already excellently tested ZINAL. If you like, the TECTON X
is a ZINAL "with protection & turbo", a SPEEDGOAT with extra push and a
CARBON X with MegaGrip!
+ Description
The Tecton X trail running shoe from Hoka is a shoe for women who love speed, because it is equipped with propulsive, parallel carbon fiber plates. This special pre-drive makes the runner particularly nimble and is also safe on difficult terrain! Grip is the shoe thanks to Vibram Megagrip outsole with Litebase construction and 4 mm lugs. In addition, rubber reinforcements are strategically placed on the sole. The built-in toe reinforcement also protects your foot from debris, even on long runs.
The Litebase of Hoka's Tecton X serves as cushioning for the speed-focused ProFlyX midsole, which combines lightweight, responsive with ultra-soft foam underfoot. The single-layer jacquard mesh on the upper shoe provides good midfoot support while providing ultimate comfort.
