About this episode
The Hoka Cielo x1 2.0 is a racing shoe designed to combine comfort, protection and speed. Priced at $275 and available February 15th, it competes with shoes like the Nike Alphafly 3 ($275) and On Cloudboom Strike ($280). In this video, I give an overview of the new Cielo, take it out for some miles and let you know my thoughts.
