Who should buy

The Кроссовки hoka one one 44р is one of the top-pick options if you're looking for: 

Hoka-Mach-5-review

This Hoka shoe is an amazing all-rounder: responsive for fast days, cushioned for long runs, and comfortable enough for easy days and walks.

zapatillas de running HOKA ONE ONE pronador talla 41.5 | Who should NOT buy

Although it's a well-loved shoe, the Mach 5 also has its share of flaws. The biggest one is the lack of rubber outsole which leads to both a lack of durability and grip on wet pavement.

We highly recommend tempo trainers like the hoka speedgoat 3 pour hommes en galaxy blueold gold taille 41 13 1099733 gbog and the zapatillas de running HOKA ONE ONE hombre amortiguación media distancias cortas talla 45.5. Both are similar in performance to the Mach 5 but come with a protective rubber layer at the bottom.

Cushioning

Heel stack

Running in the Mach 5, our feet felt quite pampered and well-protected from impact. Even though it's not a max-cushioned shoe, it certainly delivered enough cushioning to make us forget about hard heel landings.

Using a calliper, we measured heel thickness at 30.7 mm. It's not enough to make it a max-cushioned shoe but is close to the average of running shoes.

Drop

Checking the heel-to-toe drop of the shoe, it appears to be close to the brand's official statement (which is 5 mm). Based on our own stack measurements, we found it to be 5.7 mm.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

We noticed that the Mach 5 is softer than its predecessor, which also made it homier to the foot. But it's not so soft that it compromises stability.

This proves to be true in our durometer measurements. Showing 15.0 HA in the midsole, the shoe got 29% softer compared to the Mach 4, which also puts it among the softest running shoes on the market. The Кроссовки hoka one one 44р is 60% plusher than the average!

Hoka-Mach-5-foam-softness

This tempo trainer from Hoka also uses a little trick to make its ride feel extra soft. Instead of having a hard rubber outsole, it features a firm rubberized EVA foam as a secondary cushioning layer. It is more durable than the primary ProFly+ but is not as hard as a typical rubber outsole.

In terms of softness, that made us feel as if we were landing directly on exposed foam.

But if you're planning to expose this Hoka shoe to cold temperatures, be prepared that the ProFly+ foam gets considerably denser.

Running on chilly days, the shoe might take some breaking in. In our freezer test, the Mach 5 got 60% firmer compared to room temperature.

Ride

The Mach 5 feels amazingly energetic! It even made us run at a faster pace than we initially intended!

There is a welcome bit of bounce but nothing extra.

The upgraded ProFly+ foam deserves a huge thumbs-up from us!

The shoe's midsole is slightly rockered. It features what the brand calls "meta-rocker geometry" which makes each step feel buttery smooth.

Toebox width - widest part

The shoe's midfoot kept us securely locked in and the toebox felt roomy enough for our medium-width feet.

Looking at the numbers, however, the forefoot part of the upper appears to be narrower than the average but still in the medium-width range. At its widest, the toebox is 95.4 mm wide (2.7 mm narrower than average).

Stability

Lateral stability test

For a neutral shoe, the Mach 5 offers a wonderfully stable ride. There is a slight flare in its heel which we found especially handy when cornering.

Torsional rigidity

The Mach's high level of torsional flexibility helps us remember that this is a neutral shoe after all.

Twisting it in our manual test, we found that it comes on a very flexible side. On a 1-5 scale, where 1 is the most flexible, we rated it as 2.

So, if you are someone with flat feet or pronation concerns, it's better to skip the Mach 5 in favour of the Hoka Toa GTX.

HOKA ONE ONE Venicemarathon One For All

At the back, a moderately stiff heel counter helps in keeping the heel in place. Giving it a squeeze, we rated its stiffness as 3 out of 5 in our subjective assessment (5 is the stiffest).

Even though it has a little give to it, the shoe's heel counter never lets our heels lift or slip out of the Кроссовки hoka one one 44р.

Midsole width - forefoot

The primary source of stability in this neutral Hoka shoe is the width of its platform.

Measuring the widest part of the forefoot, we got a fairly average result of 113 mm. However, the shoe's heel width left us truly impressed!

Flexibility / Stiffness

In the era of hyper-cushioned, stiff, and aggressively rockered running shoes, the Кроссовки hoka one one 44р felt like a nice break. It has a pretty flexible nature which contributes to the shoe's overall comfort. It bent in all the right places helping our foot feel free and manoeuvrable.

Measuring the forefoot flexibility in the lab, we found that it only takes 9.4N to bend the Кроссовки hoka one one 44р to 30 degrees. This makes the shoe way more flexible than the average road shoe!

Weight

The fact that the Mach 5 is well-cushioned doesn't seem to affect its lightness. In fact, it is even a little lighter than the average tempo trainer in a men's US size 9.

Breathability

Taking the Кроссовки hoka one one 44р through our smoke breathability test, we can claim that it's got a slightly above-average level of ventilation in the upper. It is not the most ventilated one, but great for moderate temperatures.

You can also see that the toebox and tongue parts of the shoe's fabric are on the transparent side.

Durability

Outsole hardness

There is no rubber outsole on the Кроссовки hoka one one 44р. Technically, the shoe uses a layer of rubberized foam as a substitute for the rubber outsole.  So, we ended up measuring the firmness of this bottom compound.

No wonder our durometer showed such a low number!

Кроссовки hoka one one 44р outsole hardness durometer

At 57.0 HC, this Hoka shoe's bottom is 40% softer than average! And that's pretty dangerous for the shoe's long-term durability as softer materials wear out much faster on the harsh pavement.

Thus, we cannot expect more than 300 miles from this trainer.

Misc

Grip / Traction

From our experience, the Mach 5 has great traction on dry pavement. But come rainy days and its exposed foam gets dangerously slippery.

Reflective elements

zapatillas de trekking HOKA ONE ONE mujer impermeables talla 43.5pper perk of the Mach 5's upper is that it's reflective. 

Tongue padding

Putting the shoe on, we were in awe of its supremely comfortable upper. The shoe has light padding through the heel and collar, which never caused rubbing or hot spots. The padded tongue also acted like a light pillow that prevented lace pressure.

We measured the shoe's tongue at 4.3 mm, which is typical for a zapatillas de running HOKA ONE ONE mixta amortiguación media ritmo medio. HOKA Tor Ultra Hi GORE-TEX Chaussures en Eggnog Gum.
