Hoka Speedgoat 5 first impressions. All I can say is it's about time! It seems like we've been waiting for an update to the Speedgoat 4's for an eternity. I was a big fan of the 3's and I ran lots of training and race miles in that shoe. Unfortunately the same couldn't be said for the 4's, it didn't fit my foot shape right and I really didn't enjoy running in it. Finally the 5's have been released here in the UK and I've managed to get hold of a pair and I can't wait to give them a try out on the trails of Cornwall. I've got high hopes for the latest Speedgoat so fingers crossed I won't be disappointed!
Really hope you enjoy the video, thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always - stay safe and keep on running!

Wow, epic run route looked amazing...like many I liked the speedgoat 3, I wore them out as runners and now use for walking, it's a really well built shoe and this looks similar and your review convinces me to try these for sure...many thanks.

It's a fantastic route John, especially when the sun is shining! 🌞 Really impressed with the 5's and they felt very similar to the 3's, which is definitely a good thing. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel its really appreciated 🙏

I got myself a pair of Speedgoat 5's after watching this and the full review, and just went for my first run in them today. Absolutely love them! It was 8km on mostly hard-packed gravel with lots of loose rock areas, uphills and downhills, and the shoes performed excellent.

It's been a while since I've been following the channel - truly exceptional stuff. Wanted to wait until I actually got my hands on a pair of the SG5 - and oh boy - these will surely usher me in the hybrid type I've been wondering about recently. Am coming from Clifton 8s, as a road jogger of sorts 😅 - but really wanted to venture a little on the rough paths as well, and figured that Clinton wouldn't cut it. Finding these at 40% off really felt like a steal. Kudos to your stellar work 👍

I like you freshened up intro roll Loyd. Great quality filming as usual. I appreciate the amount of effort which you must have to put in to get all those approach & departure shots. The SG5 sounds like it’s going to be many people’s go to ultra trail shoe in the upcoming year.

Good to see you got such a positive first feedback. As mentioned from previous comments, I loved the SG3 and didnt´t jump into the 4s, but have heard so much good things about the 5s combining things from the Evo and learnt experience from the other versions. Another option for me to consider this year when looking for a new trail shoe. Maybe not right away but later in the year. Great video and scenery

Loving this video! Doing what you do best, Loyd 👍 and definitely no apologies needed when you are showcasing routes like this 😍. Sounds like the 5s have restored your faith in the Speedgoats 😀 Hopefully you can get the lacing sorted. Always good when shoes run great, fresh out of the box. Recycled fabrics a bonus too! Never had the 4s, but I loved my SG2s until the toe box split. SG3s still going strong although I have fallen out of love with them over the last few months. Must admit I’ve been a bit Bambi on ice on muddy trails in both 2s and 3s at times, so the lugs on the 5 sound like a good improvement.

Really glad you enjoyed the video Kate. It was definitely a positive first outing and I'm sure I'll be spending a lot of time in the new Speedgoat.

I have my first 100 mile mountain race later this year and am more interested in keeping my old knees and feet happy, than going fast. I'm interested to hear your opinion. The Peregrines aren't built for that distance. Maybe the new XODUS? Take care.

Thanks Ian that's really appreciated! The Speedgoat has always been a very popular shoe for the 100 mile distance.

I have got two pairs. Absolutely love them! My favourite shoe of all time is the EVO speedgoat. They are pretty similar! My evo speedgoats did over 1000km, so very durable. My only issue at all, was very steep downhill bombing. Toes slid a bit forward and hit the hard toe overlay. I think I can sort it but using the top eyelet to lock it down a bit tighter. Heaps of hill work was fine. Only an issue on the very steepest decents.

I recently purchased a pair of Speed Goat 5. I have done 60km and 21km trail runs on them. Wore thick merino wool socks. During my downhill, I found that my ankle joint consistently made contact with the higher collar design found on the Speed Goat 5 compared to my Speed Goat 4. Over the period of a long run, I started to experience ankle pain underneath the joint. A problem that didn't occur when I wore the Speed Goat 4.

Interesting that you a problem with the higher ankle collar. I picked up a pair of the SG5's yesterday and went out on a quick 6 mile run after work last night and had a similar experience. At one point during my run I did notice a bit of an ankle rub that I have never experienced in my SG4"s. It wasn't significant and it seem to go away during the later portion of the run. I remember thinking at the time that it might be an issue on longer trail runs. I hope that's not the case, but we'll have to wait and see. As I mentioned it wasn't that significant and I absolutely loved the comfort and ride that I had outside of the brief period that I experienced the ankle rub.

@@Run4Adventure so when buying "true to size" still quite a tight shoe ?

I've had the SG, 2,3 and 4 and I do agree that the 3 was the best. (I went through 3 pairs), I didn't find the gulf between the 3 and 4 as pronounced as you did Loyd. I do find the 4 has a slightly stiffer upper/overlay at the area by the lower lace eyelets, this causes a bit more creasing but overall I've liked the 4.

@Run4Adventure 2 жыл бұрын

I think the 3's have been the most popular version of the Speedgoat to date Ian. It was just down to the fit of the 4's, it just didn't work as well for my foot shape. It wasn't terrible but I think where I'd enjoyed the 3's so much it just left me a bit dissapointed 😕 Thanks for watching and supporting the channel as always its appreciated 🙏

Great review. Stunning scenery. Hey I'm a big fan of the speedgoat 4 but unfortunately I turned an ankle just two weeks ago while hiking the Camino Portuguese. Actually half a small fracture in my ankle some sideline for a month or so. Deciding whether to abandon the higher stack height hokas, but it looks like you thought that the ankle stability was a little better in the speedgoat 5. Really love the cushioning of the hoka SGs, but just a little apprehensive that the stack height May have contributed to my ankle fracture. Would love your thoughts. Keep up the great work. Love your reviews

@Run4Adventure 2 жыл бұрын

Glad you enjoyed the video Brent. The new Speedgoat 5 definitely feels a bit more stable underfoot when you compare it to the 4's. Unfortunately you'll always loose connection and ground feel with a deeply cushioned midsole. You will always feel more stable with less cushioning. The best thing to do is build up strength and stability in the lower leg if you want to use very cushioned shoe 👍 Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊

BTW, it would be great if in your reviews you could do a comparison with other shoes. It's one thing to know if a shoe is great or not, but is it greater or notter vs the others. That's what really can will help our search for good shoes. For example as somebody mentioned below, how do you compare this vs the Peregrine as a long range race shoe, or the Ultra Glide (which I currently run in alongside the Salomon Ultra 3s). Keep up the good work!

It's a very different trail shoe compared to a Peregrine. The Speedgoat 5's are deeply cushioned so a lot softer underfoot than a Peregrine. Obviously you'd have a lot more connection to the trails in a Peregrine but not as much cushioning.

I think that i want to get out of the hype train! I ran 2 races in them and -at least to me- a think that the hype it's worth it. First of all its unacceptable for a trail shoe to have this kind of heel colar. Its a magnet of small rocks that goes inside the shoe. Other than that i find it very dificult to get a proper fit in them, they seem big and loose. On top of all that, with just 60km in them there are parts on the outsole that tearing apart. In overal the shoe dont feel much durable to me.

Speedgoats and saucony seem to fight for the title of the worst uppers in the industry. I understand why they are doing that for mass consumer, but ill stick with la sportivs(for more technical) and topo(for parks), even though hokas are really comfy. New shoes every 300 miles for sgs (as foam degrades) is already bad enough, but if they meet snowpack or actual scree, their uppers fall apart in days.
