Agree, the midsole is trash. Super firm, definitely not that marshmallow feel that Hoka is known for. The tongue is still not long enough or padded enough.

I am no longer a hoka customer. After 10 years of competitive running, and probably over 20+ pairs of specifically hoka shoes, they ruined their line up with the Challengers 7s being like rounded hard sketchers and the speedgoat 6s were an epic failure from wearing the lugs out in one backyard ultra and feeling sloppy almost immediately from the backs of the shoe being mis shaped, whyyyyy did they make this silly heel resting pop up area??? It looks like a reverse elf shoe.

I value your reviews. So disappointed to hear this about the SG6… the SG5 for rolling carriage trail was fine but the midsole seems to go flat after 75miles. Can’t get the SG4 anymore. The Mafate 4 has been great for me on technical trails. What do you turn to for a cushioned every day non technical trainer?
@swiftcolinАй бұрын
Right now I’m using my last two pairs of SG4’s, so I’m on the search for a new one. I just got the Brooks Caldera 7 but having to send them back because they run a little short, 10.5 usually fits me in every brand, but might try an 11 in the Caldera 7.

I ran in SG 3 and 4 and swore I would run in Speedgoat forever. Then version 5 came out and Hoka ruined the cushion. It sounds as if version 6 is not even worth a try so have moved onto an entirely different brand. Hoka- bring back the cushions of Speedgoat 3 or 4 and I will come back in a heartbeat!

@@jakevs6271 I now am running in Nike Zygama and they are fine. The foot bed is not the best shape for me but they are working well. I also have a pair of Saucony Trabuco Max 2 that feel good except I get too much ground feel while running on gravel roads and the Zygamas have more cushion/bounce. I bought the Hoka Mofate 4 and was disappointed in the lack of bounce and firmer cushion so they are retired with low miles as walking shoes. Some say they like the Mofate as well as the older SG versions but I don't see it. Never thought I could like a pair of Nikes, but they are my SG replacement shoe for now. I also have a pair of New Balance Fresh Foams which are super cushioned but I accidentally bought them a size too small. I think they are worth another try in the correct size. I think the cushion may have been enough to slow my pace a little, but for training I am more concerned about keeping my aging joints happy. For now, it is Nike Zygama.

Hi! Nice review of the speed. Can you maybe do a review of the Ultra also? The ultra doesn’t have carbon rods btw, it’s plastic TPU rods so it shouldn’t be as stiff as a carbon racer. The plastic rods is more for stiffening up the full midsole of the more softer lightstrike pro. Thanks!
