HOKA Speedgoat 6 - first run & first impressions. It’s Hoka Speedgoat day at the channel again, always an exciting day because I’ve got a lot of history with the Speedgoat franchise from Hoka! I’ve ran in every model of this popular trail running shoe, from the slightly unstable original version all the way to the Speedgoat 5, with the third iteration of the shoe being one of favourite trail shoes of all time. Hoka have just launched the latest Speedgoat 6 and in this video we go through some facts and figures, I’m going to break down the construction in a bit more detail and then I’m going to lace them up and take them out for their first run on the beautiful trails of Cornwall!
Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always - stay safe and keep on running!

I wish I had the same experience with the Mafate 4, but then I am so used to the Speedgoat 3 and 4, nothing else compares. The Mafate does not have that "pop" as he describes and I quit using mine after about 4 weeks.

@Run4Adventure 11 күн бұрын

I was a massive fan of the SG3, one of my best trail shoes of all time! I still feel the Mafate Speed 4’s midsole is pretty good and I definitely get a good level of bounce when I’m running in them 👍

@josiebones1 14 күн бұрын

The Speedgoat 3 was a revelation to me. Best bounce and traction I'd ever experienced. Unfortunately I should have sized up because there wasn't enough room in the toe box. I've had some slightly mixed results with versions 4 and 5 but overall they've been the best trail shoes for me. All three are still going strong, which isn't something I can say for most other shoes. I'm looking forward to your long term review Lloyd!

@antoinejacques9310 14 күн бұрын

Great review as always and happy to see your recovery going well. I fully agree with your analysis of the shoe, it definitely feels firmer, but I find it to be a good thing to differentiate it more from the Mafate Speed 4 in the Hoka offering. Because I think these 2 shoes were very close to each other in the last iteration. The Speedgoat now sits in the middle of a highly cushioned Mafate and a super responsive TectonX. Man, seeing your t-shirt, it would have been so we'll matched with the blue-pink colorway Hoka sent me !

@emlyngriffith5846 14 күн бұрын

I’m just wearing out my third pair of Speedgoats (I call them Slowboats) and I love them. I’m pretty heavy so need the cushioning they provide….and the grip is fine. Yes they’re a bit of a narrow fit so I’ve upped a whole size to an 11. No issues with laces or tongues, although the upper crease has worn through on all my pairs….but on height mileage Spanish mountain trails so can’t complain. I’m going back for a fourth pair! 👍🍷. Thanks for the video Loyd.

I've had 1 run in my new SG6's. I was hoping to have them be race-ready out of the box for this coming weekend's trail 1/2, but I'm with you. I feel like they may need to be broken in a little to get back to the comfort and feel that I've had in a past model of the SG. At least that is what I am hoping will happen.

I was looking at the speedgoat6 and the Salomon genesis. Both felt great but I chose the speedgoat due to the stability (the firm midsole). To this, I am a heavier runner and hence they work perfectly. Though I just did a XTERRA that was extremely muddy and they do not perform well I deep mud.

I had sizing dramas with the SG2, gave 3 a go and found them ok, skipped 4, learned to really like 5, and am likely to not worry about 6 on the mounting body of evidence 😅 might go with the Mafate Speed 4 instead. Or the Agility Peak 5.

Just ran in my new Asics Trabuco Max 3s! Was disappointed with the SG 5 midsole. TM 3s have that FF+ bounce. Maybe a bit unstable due to the stack… outsole grip is outstanding. After listening to this review I’m glad I’m giving them a try! Cheers!

Excellent Loyd. I had read other reviews about the SG6 and was not impressed. I was waiting for your review before making my final decision, which is to NOT buy these. The Saucony Xodus Ultra v1 remains the best all round trail shoe for me. The v2 is still very good but somehow not quite as good as v1, not exactly sure why. The V3...forget it! Luckily, I still have two V1s with plenty of miles left and four V2s! If you find a trainer that's perfect for you, my advice would be to buy plenty of them before the next 'downgraded' version comes out in 3 month's time!

@RRYanSpencer 14 күн бұрын

I’ve bounced around between Inov8, Hoka and VJ Sport for years. Over the last 18 months or so it seem Hoka as 1) removed the 2E wide option from a number of models and 2) made the toe box really narrow and low. This across the range of models.

I currently owned 3 pairs of SG 5 ( all wide version). It is a decent trail running shoes . I like the fit and comfort. I do agree that the lugs will struggle in muddier terrain and i did not get a good lockdown. After watching the review , i probably will skip the SG 6 . Nnormal Tomir ( 1st version) was probably firmest trail shoe that i have ever worn but the Vibram megagrip lite base on that shoes is arguably the best outsole grip out there .

@Run4Adventure 11 күн бұрын

@jansommerlund5497 14 күн бұрын

Thanks Loyd 🙂 a shoe that I won't be byuing😉 I`m definitely not a Hoka fan and don't think I `ll ever be. Last one I tried was the Speedboat 5 and it was terrible. Narrow, very firm midsole, poor fit around the mid foot and a very noisy midsole. Sold after one run. Somehow the shoe has a reputation of, at least here in Denmark, being wide, comfortable and having a comfy midsole. I just don't get it. Cause that`s really not the case. And many many recommendations to new trail runners if they ask in various groups, to buy this shoe.

@JohnM-xr6ch 14 күн бұрын

Same, I don’t get it. Of all the popular trail shoes I can understand why folk buy them, like the xodus ultra, merrells, ASICS, Nike Wildhorse, ultra glides or genesis, they all have their alignment with certain foot shaped or are solid all rounders. The SG 5s, super narrow, sloppy slidey fit, awful collar, and despite the vibram and the 5m lugs are rubbish in the mud.

@HowardWortonjb71 3 күн бұрын

Have to remember shoe reviews are personal and one individual opinion. I’ve been happy wi the 6 for over 100km so far and I’m a wide footed Topo and Altra fan. Trail tanks for sure. All the things required from a trail shoe are present. They plough through harsh conditions as is their M/O. No negatives from here.

@Run4Adventure 2 күн бұрын

I totally agree Howard and I pretty much say that in every shoe review I film, running shoe choice is very personal! What works for me might not work for you and vice versa. I actually worked in running retail for 10 years and help 1,000’s of customers with their running shoe choice. So the fact that you’ve been happy with the SG6 is great, but like you said it doesn’t mean it’s going to be right for everyone 👍

@richhowarth2356 7 күн бұрын

After more than 50 pairs of Speedgoat 3s and 4s, I could not use the 5s without expensive insoles. The insole in the 5 is thin junk and led to significant metatarsal pain. The worst forefoot cushioning in any Hoke I've worn. Other people I know found the same thing. Since then I switched to the Speedlands which have been amazing. I hope Hoke fixes this in the 6 because I still like other things about the Speedgoats.

All this ended for me after the SG3 and Evo (which is still my favourite ever trail shoe). Every SG since has been such a disappointment. I actually sent my SG5 back for a refund after one run. Was like a completely different shoe compared to the 3 or Evo. Come on Hoka, bring back a great shoe....

I never ran in the EVO because I enjoyed the standard SG so much. I’m not ignoring it, I didn’t run in it so I can’t comment about it. It was obviously a great shoe because I’ve never heard a bad word said about it 👍🙂

It sure is Jack! I’d just run 100 miles the week before so unfortunately my body wasn’t ready for any technical stuff 🙂 I’ll be trying them out on the coast path before my full review 👍

Isnt this THE BEST TRAIL SHOE EVER, that last 300km? 🤣 Come one guys, we should be much more demanding.

Did I say that the SG6 is the best trail shoe ever? I’m pretty sure I didn’t 🤔

@@Run4Adventure No no you did not, but so many Hokas fanatic-loyal-user reviews ake like that 😊

One of the ugliest colorways ever. I was looking out for this one to replace my SG EVO, but I think I'll try something else.

If you’re use to the feel and performance of the SG EVO, I think you’d be very disappointed 🤔

HOKA's are poor quality shoes. had a pair of HOKA carbonX, they started to fall apart after less than 1000km. Replaced them with Adidas Nitro carbon plate, run twice the distance with minimal wear and tear.

Before 1000km! To be fair that’s pretty good mileage for a running shoe 🤷‍♂️

Why do they continue to make them in such ugly colours?? I have speed goat 5 and I like running in them but they are gross to look at. My misses says I look like a little kid ready for his first day of kindergarten because of the colour scheme lol 😂

Seriously, a sponsor plug? On top of that, a piece of garbage that does absolutely nothing? Welp, time to smack that unsub button. It's been fun. Cya.

A sponsored plug! What are you talking about? Did you watch the video 🤷‍♂️ I bought these shoes myself so this is definitely not a sponsored video!
