Designed for runners looking for peak performance, the Rocket X 3 features a dual-density PEBA foam midsole for an ultra-responsive ride, paired with an Active Foot Frame™ for optimal control when running at race speeds. An updated, pace-pushing carbon fiber plate maximizes energy return, constructed with a lateral winglet for added stability. The sticky rubber outsole ensures grip and confidence in varying race-day conditions, while a single-layer engineered warp knit jacquard upper enhances breathability and weight reduction, ensuring runners can focus on reaching the finish line efficiently.

“The Rocket X 3 is the newest edition of an icon in our racing lineup. It’s the perfect race day shoe to help runners achieve their next personal best; every detail across the upper, midsole and outsole, has been meticulously engineered to deliver speed, stability, and traction,” said Colin Ingram, Vice President of Global Product at HOKA. “With all of the training that goes into race day, we looked to make sure every second counts and the signature HOKA ride delivers efficiency, comfort, speed and confidence with every passing mile marker.”

The Rocket X 3 has a 7mm heel-to-toe drop and weighs in at 6.5oz/185g for a Women’s size 8 and 8.2oz/226g for a Men’s Size 10.

Consumers at major marathons across the globe will have the opportunity to visit the Rocket X Flylab, showcasing a behind-the-scenes look at the technology packed into the HOKA brand’s most supportive race day shoe. These innovative performance solutions will come to life in this immersive experience throughout Fall, at the Berlin and New York City Marathons.
