FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The HOKA Mafate Speed 4 Lite features a ripstop nylon upper that offers some water resistance, but it is not fully waterproof. They are designed for breathability and quick drying.

What type of terrain are these shoes best suited for?

These shoes are designed for diverse terrains, excelling on trails with their Vibram Megagrip outsole, while also providing comfort and style for urban environments and concrete surfaces.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by HOKA and measure your foot length. These trainers are typically true to size, but individual fit can vary.

Can I wear these for long-distance running?

Yes, the ProFly+ midsole offers significant cushioning and responsiveness, making them suitable for long-distance running on varied surfaces, including trails.

What is the main difference between this and other Mafate Speed models?

The Mafate Speed 4 Lite distinguishes itself with a super lightweight, transparent ripstop nylon upper and a focus on blending outdoor capability with street style, while retaining key performance features like the Vibram outsole and ProFly+ midsole.

How should I clean the transparent upper?

The transparent ripstop nylon upper can be cleaned by gently wiping it with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain its appearance and integrity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure the laces are adjusted properly. For tightness, loosen the laces; for looseness, tighten them evenly. Consider using different lacing techniques for a customized fit.

Traction is reduced on certain surfaces

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded debris that might be hindering grip. Ensure the shoe's design is appropriate for the specific terrain you are using it on.

Upper material feels stiff

The ripstop nylon may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The HOKA Mafate Speed 4 Lite trainers are ready to wear out of the box. No specific setup is required.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult males. They are suitable for a wide range of activities from trail running and hiking to everyday casual wear. They are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the ripstop nylon upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or an old toothbrush to scrub away mud and debris from the ProFly+ midsole and Vibram Megagrip outsole. A mild soap and water solution can be used for stubborn dirt, followed by a rinse.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
