Our verdict
The Hoka Mach Supersonic is a limited release of Hoka's well-loved Mach 4. It's marketed as its racing/speed-oriented sibling. As a racer, it fails. And as a tempo trainer, it doesn't really stand out. But if you want to have a snappy training run, it won't disappoint. Even more, it maintains the defining qualities of the Mach such as lightweight design and propulsive toe-offs.

The Mach Supersonic sits on a broad platform. Through uneven surfaces, all agree that it keeps their steps "anchored" and "steady."
Weight that doesn't disappoint
Although it's heavier than the Mach 4 (8.2 oz vs. 8.4 oz), the Hoka Supersonic is "light on foot." This is what medio have to say about it.
They attribute this to the huge rear midfoot cut-out on the outsole.
Fits like a dream
"Excellent," "snug," and "secure" — This is how the majority finds the Hoka Mach Supersonic.
The overlays lock the foot in place, while the new mesh upper is less stretchy than the Mach 4's upper.
Even better, it has more volume in the toe box.
Durability: Solid AF!
After 40 miles, there's very little wear on the outsole — more or less, cosmetic wear as it does not affect traction.
Because it has plenty of rubber, numerous road runners say that they expect it to last 350 miles before retiring it in their closet.
Insanely sticky
On wet pavement and icy conditions, there are NO reports of slips. The outsole latches to the ground so well; stability is not an issue.

In warm conditions, the "breathable" upper keeps the foot sweat-free. And when running through puddles, it "drains water quick."
Doesn't dig into the skin
The ankle collar may be a tad high for everyone's liking, but they all state that it never rubs the skin.
