I personally like Rincon but don't like the Carbon X, will Rocket X be a good fit to me?

With this being the third carbon fiber plate shoe in the Hoka lineup, are they intended to be used together in a training block or for races of different distances? Men's size 11 US
Many carbon plated shoes are effective because they encourage the runner to run with a more economical form. What features of the Rocket X might help improve running economy?

As the Rocket X was built from the last of the Carbon X with minor tweaks to fit our performance mesh upper, We recommend your true size!@Hoka One One Official, do these run true to size? For me the Carbon X is true to size, however the Rincon I get 1/2 size smaller.

@Hoka One One Official, how long did it take to design, test, and then release the Rocket X?

@Hoka One One Official Are you planning on releasing a carbon X 2 in addition to the rocket X and what will differentiate the two shoes? Mens size 11.
Overall the Rocket X was designed as a racing flat specifically. This means large amounts of training would be better suited in a model like the Carbon X over a longer period of time. Unfortunately, mileage is not the most reliable determinant when calculating something subjective. What the shoe feels like underfoot to some may feel very different to someone else over a given amount of use. We do know the durability and ride experience will change over time like most footwear depending on a plethora of factors. These include but are not limited to; surface run on, individual gait patterns, exposure to extreme temperatures, and other variants of those. The CF plate does help distribute forces across the midsole evenly, leveling "wear/use." That being said however, The plate resiliency is dependent on the factors of "use/wear" for each individual since the CF plate and midsole work together.How many road miles can we expect to get out of these?

Hi! Despite this being more of a marathon shoe, how well would the Carbon X’s fair on shorter distances such as the 5k. Thanks!
