With a combination of cutting-edge materials and technology, this shoe offers a seamless balance of comfort, speed, and precision.

Snappy and Responsive Ride for Every Stride

The Cielo X MD is equipped with a carbon fiber plate that propels you forward with added speed and efficiency. This advanced technology helps you maintain momentum and drive throughout the entire race, whether you're attacking the first lap or launching into the final kick. Paired with HOKA's lightest performance foam, the foam midsole offers a compression-molded cushioning that provides lightweight comfort while ensuring a responsive ride. The result? A faster, more efficient stride, optimized for middle-distance races where every second counts.

Smooth Transitions for Effortless Strides

One of the key features of the Cielo X MD is its Early Stage Meta-Rocker technology. This design enhances your natural running gait by promoting a smooth transition from toe-off to heel strike. It ensures that each stride is fluid and fast, giving you the efficiency you need to build speed over the course of a race. Whether you're coming around the curve or pushing toward the finish line, this shoe ensures that you stay light on your feet and ready to push your limits.

Breathable and Cool Under Pressure

In the heat of competition, comfort is key, and the Cielo X MD delivers just that with its engineered mesh upper. The mesh construction offers breathability and fast-drying performance, keeping your feet cool and dry during intense races. Whether it's a humid day or you’re pushing through a grueling 1,500m, the ventilated design promotes airflow to prevent overheating and discomfort. The engineered mesh tongue also ensures a secure and comfortable fit, providing you with the freedom to focus on the race ahead.

Superior Grip for Confidence on Every Step

The Cielo X MD features a Pebax® spike plate with four spikes, designed for exceptional grip and traction. This design is perfectly suited for middle-distance races, where quick and stable footing is essential for maintaining speed, especially during turns or acceleration phases. The spike plate ensures that your foot stays securely planted as you push the pace, helping you make the most out of every stride. No matter the surface or the intensity of your race, this shoe is built to keep you in control and ahead of the competition.
