{{DISPLAYTITLE:Best Running Shoe Reviews – Hoka Conquest}}
[[File:ConquestSlice.JPG|none|thumb|x300px|The Hoka Conquest. Notice the holes in the top of the green foam, which I think are an attempt to soften the overly firm feel. ]]
The Conquest is a little lighter than the [[Hoka Bondi]], but is not as softly cushioned. The Conquest is using a newer type of foam (RMAT) that Hoka claim is longer lasting. I only ran about 200 miles in the Conquest before I'd had enough. I can believe that it would last longer than the other Hokas, but the foam is also a lot firmer. You can see some deep slots cut into the foam, which I assume is an attempt to soften the shoe. The Conquest is not really cushioned enough to be considered a true 'maximum cushioning' shoe, and in many ways it seems like rather a pointless shoe. Why would you have all the weight of a Hoka if you don't have the cushioning?
