FAQs
What type of runner is the HOKA Mach 5 best suited for?
The HOKA Mach 5 is ideal for neutral runners, especially those looking for a versatile trainer for tempo runs, interval training, and marathon racing, as well as for daily training miles where comfort and responsiveness are prioritized.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the insole is designed to be removable, allowing you to replace it with your own custom orthotics or a different type of insole if desired.
How do I clean my Mach 5 trainers?
Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth. For the interior and insoles, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush. Avoid machine washing.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and performance, which means they are not intended to keep water out.
What is the main difference between the Mach 5 and other HOKA models?
The Mach 5 strikes a balance between cushioning and responsiveness, offering a lighter and more energetic feel compared to some of HOKA's max-cushion models, making it suitable for faster paces.
How should I store my HOKA Mach 5 trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing for extended periods.
What does 'Mountain Spring Puffin's Bill' refer to?

Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Check that the size is appropriate. If using custom insoles, ensure they are properly seated.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The cushioning is designed to be responsive. If the feel diminishes significantly, consider cleaning the shoes and checking the insole. Material may naturally compress after extensive use.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While the outsole provides good grip, wet surfaces can always reduce traction. Run with caution and ensure the outsole is free from debris.
