+ 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 new Tecton X is named after the tectonic plates of our planet that
inspired its parallel carbon fiber plate design - a change that will shake up
the trail running world. With a grippy Vibram® Megagrip outsole with Litebase
construction, the nimble shoe features a ProFlyX™ midsole that combines a
lightweight, responsive foam base with an ultra-soft foam at the bottom of the
foot. The Tecton X is HOKA's first trail running shoe with high propulsion,
parallel carbon fiber plates. A special single-layer jacquard mesh wraps the
foot comfortably and completes the design.
