FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Mafate Speed 4 Lite prioritizes breathability and a lightweight build over waterproofing.
Can I use these for road running?
Yes, while designed for trails, the cushioning is versatile enough for road use, though the outsole lugs will wear faster on abrasive pavement.
Is the sizing true to fit?
HOKA trainers generally run true to size, but we recommend comparing your UK measurement against our size chart.
How do I clean the transparent upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild soapy water to gently wipe the exterior. Avoid harsh chemicals that could cloud or damage the synthetic material.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The standard fit is accommodating for most users, but the materials are designed to be somewhat form-fitting due to the minimalist construction.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt inside the shoe
Due to the see-through upper, dirt may be more visible; use a soft brush to gently clear debris from the internal mesh.
Sensation of heel slippage
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly using the top eyelet for a 'runner's loop' lock to secure the heel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While the materials are lightweight, wear them for shorter periods during the first few days to allow the foam to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Hand wash only using a mild soap and a soft brush. Do not machine wash, as this can degrade the lightweight bonding of the upper.
- Air Dry: Always remove the insole and allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heaters.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent the breakdown of the midsole cushioning material.
