Hoka Rocket X 3 - Unisex Racing Shoes

Pace meets stability in Hoka's lightest carbon racer yet.

The Hoka Rocket X 3 is built for PB chasers who want race-day propulsion without compromising on stability. Featuring a dual-density PEBA midsole for high-rebound cushioning and an upgraded winged carbon fiber plate, this super shoe delivers a powerful, responsive toe-off that helps you push the pace over any distance.

Whether you’re tackling a fast 5K or gunning for a marathon PR, the Rocket X 3 keeps you locked in and rolling smooth.

The upper uses a single-layer warp knit mesh for lightweight breathability, while the stitch-and-turn collar reduces friction to help prevent blisters. Underfoot, a sticky rubber outsole enhances grip and confidence when conditions change. Unlike more aggressive carbon shoes, the Rocket X 3 offers a smoother, more stable ride that holds up when your form starts to fade late in the race.
