PositiveNick Harris-Fry found it a comfortable, light and versatile daily trainer with enough pop for fast finishes. It runs narrow, is less bouncy than the Rebel v4 and lacks the propulsion of a plate for long speed work.

PositiveOne of Hoka's best geometries: bouncy EVA and a smooth rocker that work from easy to fast. The fit is snug and tapered (go up a half size), laces dig in late in long runs, and one tester saw fast heel wear.

PositiveA runner without particularly wide feet went to the wide Mach 6, true to size, and it fits nicely.

PositiveSeveral testers ran in it, one about 40 miles including a 10K race and an 18-mile progression run, another over 60 km. They liked the light, lively, stable ride, enough cushioning for easy and fast miles, and an outsole that wore well. The fit is snug and narrow with little toe room, so wider feet should try half a size up or the wide version, and it lacks the pop of a plated shoe. A versatile, good-value daily trainer with a faster sweet spot.
Most runners find the Mach 6 light, responsive and fun for daily and tempo runs, and many get several hundred kilometres from it. A narrow fit is the main complaint, with many buying the wide version or sizing up, and a few report the foam or outsole wearing out early.
