The Cielo X1 2.0 is Hoka's top-tier carbon-plated road racer, built for fast race days from 5K to marathon. It pairs a bouncy PEBA-style foam midsole with a carbon fiber plate and a rocker geometry that rolls you forward. At about 8.1 oz with a 7 mm drop, it is lighter and more aggressive than Hoka's Rocket X and softer than firmer racers like the Nike Vaporfly. Reviewers praise the propulsion and cushioning but note the high stack and unstable feel at slow paces, so it suits strong neutral runners chasing personal bests rather than daily training.
