WHY PACERS CARRIES THESE SHOES:

The Hoka Transport X changes the entire conversation as a shoe that really can do nearly everything. It’s a super comfy lifestyle shoe to wear on the commute or days out shopping. It has a light, responsive feel thanks to a carbon-fiber plate and super critical foam so you can run – and run fast! – in it. A wide, full-contact rubber outsole makes it a shoe that will hold up at the gym as well. If you’re going to be active, the Hoka Transport X is a great shoe for the job.
