I love the Hoka Mach 5. I also love the Saucony Endorphin Speed 3. At first glance, I thought the Hoka Mach X might be the glorious combination of those two shoes, and one that set a new standard for the best running shoes.
Unfortunately, that isn’t the case. The Hoka Mach X is a great shoe and will be perfect for some runners, but the category of plated trainers it sits within is competitive and, for me, the Hoka loses out to the Endorphin Speed 3 and others, owing to its relative lack of speed.
