Coined after the earth’s tectonic plates, which inspired its parallel carbon fiber plate design, the new Tecton X is poised to unleash a seismic shift in trail running. Built for speed and bolstered by a Vibram® Megagrip with Litebase construction outsole for traction, the ProFlyX™ midsole merges a light, responsive foam base and ultra-soft foam underfoot. HOKA’s first trail shoe to incorporate propulsive, parallel carbon fiber plates, the Tecton X is finished with single-layer jacquard engineered mesh for ultimate foot-hugging comfort.Features Engineered jacquard mesh Carbon fiber plates Early stage Meta-Rocker PROFLY-X™ construction Vibram® Megagrip with Litebase Recycled content polyester laces Ghillie lacing system Protective toe rand Vegan Molded EVA sockliner 4mm lugs Zonal rubber placement Specs Weight: 8.50 oz Heel-To-Toe Drop: 5.00 mm Volume: 701.00 cm 3 Spring Measurement: 36x26 mm
