World class athletes deserve world class running spikes. The Rocket series was designed to embody HOKA ONE ONE’s renowned performance and comfort, and enable our athletes to fly around the track. This shoe has a more flexible and forgiving spike plate, which meets the needs of the longer distance runner. We also added a thicker layer of EVA and sculpted arch support to add more comfortthan a traditional spike, as well as a breathable mesh upper with supportive frame. The Rocket LD is ideal for races 1,500m and longer.
