Carbon X3 - First Run (and Carbon X2, Mach 4, and Zoom Fly Flyknit comparisons)
While looking very similar to the X2, the Hoka Carbon X3 gets a significant update to the upper and midsole foam. The use of knit materials and the upgrade to ProFlyX make this the best Carbon X iterations yet. But is it still "just" a training companion? And would that be a bad thing?
