I was lucky enough to receive a review sample of the latest Hoka running shoes, the Cielo X1, which I'm sure will excite a lot of runners. With the Cielo X1, Hoka is taking another stab at the super shoe concept after one excellent and few so-so tries.
That one excellent is, of course, one of my all-time favourite running trainers, the Hoka Carbon X. Launched back in 2019 – when the company was still called Hoka One One – the Carbon X was a real alternative to the Nike ZoomX Vaporfly.
