Hoka Tecton X3 First Run Review

Sign up for the Supwell app to stay consistent with your runs during the holiday season: https://supwell.circle.so/checkout/marketplace-and-forum-ld3nz The Hoka Tecton X3 is a plated trail racing shoe designed for speed and comfort over long miles. Priced at $275, it competes with shoes like the Nike Ultrafly Trail ($260) and the Adidas Agravic Speed Ultra ($220). In this video, I give an overview of the Tecton, take it out for some miles and let you know my thoughts.
