We have both shoes in a good stock and I have to tell you that we can’t sell the Carbon X. The foam is really dead compared to the EP and once people try both none have left with the Hoka. The fit through the middle of the foot seems far more form fitting in the Saucony. That said, I feel the heal of the Saucony will be hard to get into quickly in T2. It’s soft and collapses easily. Maybe you could have a tab put on? Once on, it’s a dream shoe.
