Why We Like The Speedgoat 5 Trail Running Shoe
The Speedgoat 5 is at home bounding atop root- and rock-riddled singletrack. Now a half ounce lighter, this racer has picked up the pace while still padding our strikes and energizing our toe offs. The sandwich mesh upper keeps our feet breathing easy, while the aggressive lugs solidify our footing as we charge up steeps, around switchbacks, and back down to the valley floor.

Great shoes but, shin splints.
I have been using Altras for several years, completing my first ultra in them and hiking around 1200 miles without any problems. Recently, I transitioned to Hoka for their durability and to experience the popular choice. However, after just three runs, I began to experience shin splints, forcing me to pause my training. While I find the shoes to be exceptional, my only concern is the injury, which coincided with this change in footwear. Nevertheless, I remain optimistic about the shoes.

NO
I have owned the SG 3 and 4. Loved both for the mountains in Colorado. Great shoes and good durability. Absolutely love both, 4>3 but both great. The 5's......not so much. Feet are killing me after 10-16 miles, great toenail lifted and low back pain. Shoe feels sloppy. Have to use heel lock lacing to use for any down hill. Eight mile downhill is a nightmare. Bring back the the 4s. Can't find any anywhere. Just bought a pair of 6s, have 110 miles on the 5s and hoping the 6s are better.

I would buy this product again
In the beginning, I used Under Armour shoes for 5ks and Races. But ever since I've got into Hoka's shoes. Without a doubt would buy these types of shoes, especially this particular shoe. This shoe is an excellent, quality design, and is amazing for training in the gravel or grass. I would buy this product again!

Great Shoe for Golf
I purchased one pair of Seedgoat 5's and two pairs of Speedgoat 6's (all different colors). I have had operations on both feet and cannot with any comfort wear golf shoes. I use these for golf and my feet do not hurt at all. The tread keeps be stable during the golf swing. I will never go back to golf shoes!

Shoe fanatic, these are something else...
Honestly bought these for work. My goodness, never felt more comfortable, more ergonomic, I felt a difference in my back poster. I felt like I was walking on a cloud, that had massive grip, and very aggressive look! These always get great attention, and good for people that work overnight at Frito-Lay! Recommend 1000/10!

Not suitable for rocky/technical terrain
A couple of major issues. First is that they are not suitable for technical/rocky, trails. The bottom of the shoe (middle heel area) that doesn't have tread, is basically made of marshmellow and is incredibly thin. You basically feel barefoot if you step on a rock in that location. If you are running on jagged or lose rock, it is really really painful and dangerous. When pushing with my finger, it wouldn't require much pressure to poke right through the bottom of the shoe. Similar lack of durability to the soles of the shoe. They are shredded beyond belief. Likely my last pair of trail runner Hokas as the durability is just not up to par.

These are not durable enough for real trail use
I've been purchasing Hoka trail running shoes for years and have come to expect a level of durability these shoes don't live up to. After relatively minor use (weekend hikes for 4 months) the tread has separated from the sole, worn way too fast, and the material hasn't held up to minor scuffing and abrasions. These are the last Hoka's I'll be purchasing.

Excellent fast in the mtns shoe
This is an early review. ~25 miles hiking/running/scrambling in the Wasatch and Moab. First impression upon stepping in was awesome. Bio feedback counts for lots in performance apparel. I have barely wide feet by technical standards. The footbed shape fits so well. It fits just right as compared to the Tecton x2 (too snug) and Mafate Speed 4 (a little play). The SG5 stretch upper material is not as protective as the upper material on the MS4. But it provides uniform gentle compression that eliminates slippage inside the shoe when off camber, which inspires mad confidence. So does the Mega Grip outsole. I felt glued to the slick rock in Moab. I get equivalent comfort from the SG5 single piece midsole as I do from the MS4 dual layer. My only criticism of the SG5 is the thin tongue sometimes slips a little; same as the Tx2, but nonexistent in the chonkier MS4 tongue. I'd put a MS4 tongue in the SG5 to make it a perfect trail shoe. Though it's pretty close as is.
