Hi all,
Looks like the Hoka mach 4 is a winner. Run like Heller said she hasn't being this excited about a shoe since the Saucony Endorphin Speed. Check out the youtube review.

, also Roadtrailrun raved about it.
Has anyone ran in it yet.
Cheers

Hi,
Has anyone ran in these yet. Interesting the price its meant to be $130 US and in Australia it is $260. The Nike invincible is $180 US and $260 in Australia. The New balance Rebel 2 is $130 US and is $199 in Australia. Hoka seems very expensive here compared to the US. Has anyone compared the Invincible vs the Mach 4?
Cheers
Steve
Will report back later today.
Surely, Hoka = EVA = crappy. So this shoe is a waste of your money when you could get something revolutionary or super.
ProFly is in the Carbon X and it wasn't anything special.
Hi,
I was talking to the Hoka rep today, its not straight eva in the Hoka Mach 4. They have done something in the process, like skechers treat there EVA (nitrogen) to make it lighter , bouncier/responsive and more durable. It sounds like they have done something like that with the hoka midsole.
Cheers

Yes, another hyped shoe that won’t meaningfully affect your training but you’re lead to thinking this will be completely revolutionary.
That said, I’m surprised it took Hoka this long to realize that their strategy for the Mach 2 and 3 sucked ass and that it should’ve been a plate less Carbon X ever since that shoe came out. Mach’s 2 and 3 were horrible. Hard not to screw up when your shoe was that spectacularly bad in the first place.
