Speed meets comfort in the Carbon X 3 Running Shoe. Our strides open with the new knit upper and integrated tongue giving us a sock-like fit, and the low-profile platform feeling like our soles sprouted cush. As we fly atop asphalt, the snappy carbon plate and early-stage meta-rocker propel us into quick, powerful transitions that find us a new personal best.

Light, comfortable, great cushioning
Run 30 miles/week on asphalt, great toebox - perfect size. Only minor issue is I need a shoehorn to get them on, but the fit is great. No chafing whatsoever.

I returned the product
i was trying to get something like the Bondi 6 that I purchased 6 years ago and I'm still wearing. I did not like this shoe at all. In my opinion you make too many different shoes. You keep me confused.

Made for narrow feet
I couldn't wait to get these shoes and when I got them, I was so disappointed. I couldn't even get my foot in it. The opening was too narrow, and it was also a stain on the side of one of the sneakers so I sent them back, unfortunately

If you are looking to get hurt while running in another way
I got this shoe at a discount. I thought there were nothing to complain for the sake of the price. It turns out I was wrong. I have a clifton 9 and I always hold faith to Hoka. I went for a track running at the day I received the shoes, wearing it for 40minutes, and started to feel strange near me ankle. I had a picture for this(with some of my blood although) and apparently there is a hard rise-up near the lining, which is scratching my skin all the time. And despite the quality assurance issue, i think for a racing shoe it is just average. With a carbon plate but not even as responsive as those without one. I would only recommend it if you really want to try a carbon at limited budget. Otherwise there are better options.

So so ... so far
I was expecting a bouncy feel from the midsole but I felt it barely. The right side under the malleolus was hurting from the shoe skin. The left hand side is OK, though. So I relaxed the tightness on string. Then my foot was not bound. Is it due to problem in my feet? Other than that, the shoes is exceptionally beautiful!

Good but be careful on sizing!
Overall an okay shoe. I would consider buying again. Just go down half a size. I have a couple thousand miles in Cliftons and I thought the size would translate. I was swimming in the Carbon X. Otherwise a de

Carbon plate cracked within 20 miles
Shocked with the poor quality. Initially thought it was the creased up sock after the second run, then realized that the carbon plate had actually cracked near the ball of the foot.

Shoe color
I thought I bought a pair of light blue shoes, but it came with red on one side (blue the other). They look like freaking bowling shoes. I sent them back... would of loved the solid blue style

Best shoe I've ever run in.
So much to like. Light and fast. Have gotten 2 PR's with these shoes. My favorite thing is that it is like a loafer, No tongue to deal with. So comfortable.
