FAQs
Can I use these for marathon running?
These are primarily categorized as trainers for lifestyle and light trail use, though the Pro Fly+ cushioning provides enough support for shorter distance runs.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Mafate Speed 4 Lite features a breathable nylon upper, which is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mild weather conditions.
How should I clean the microfiber collar?
Use a damp microfiber cloth to gently dab the collar to remove sweat or dirt buildup.
What is the benefit of Litebase technology?
Vibram Litebase significantly reduces the thickness of the outsole, resulting in a much lighter shoe without sacrificing the legendary grip of Megagrip.
Do these shoes run true to size?
HOKA trainers generally follow standard sizing; we recommend selecting your usual athletic shoe size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal footbed is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the tension using the speed lace system or switch to the included secondary standard laces for a more traditional fit.
Upper material appearing dull or dirty
Gently wipe the nylon mesh with a soft cloth and soapy water; avoid abrasive brushes that could damage the haptic print.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
Clean the debris out of the Vibram lugs with a soft brush to ensure full contact between the rubber and the ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Mafate Speed 4 Lite lasts, proper care is essential. The nylon and microfiber components respond best to gentle hand washing with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the bonding agents and the specialized cushioning properties.
Regarding setup, the reflective speed laces are pre-installed for immediate use, but you may swap them with the secondary laces provided in the box depending on your preference for fit tension or visual style. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing over time. If you use them on muddy trails, rinse the Vibram outsole as soon as possible to maintain its tacky grip profile.
