Reengineered to maximize weight savings, the Tecton X 2 has been refined with a brand new Matryx upper. Light, breathable, and inherently hydrophobic, Hoka's high-contrast Matryx upper enlists a lay-flat gusseted tongue to help mitigate trail debris. A propulsive trail runner designed to inspire confidence on varied terrain, the Tecton X 2 is propelled by the same parallel carbon fibre plates that made its predecessor a fast favorite among trail running enthusiasts.

In a way, a good shoe, but I don't remember breaking my ankles in other shoes except maybe once or twice in 50 years. These go on every other run, a couple of stars off that. One star removed because the sole is somehow unevenly squishy, which I haven't noticed in other Hoka shoes. Maybe these two things are related.

Based on short use, a really good shoe for trail running.
