Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Mafate Hike shoes, ensure you select the correct size, as the running-inspired fit should feel snug but not restrictive.
- Breaking In: Wear your shoes on short local walks before embarking on multi-day excursions to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: After muddy hikes, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth for surface cleaning; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can compromise the midsole cushioning and adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the hydrophobic upper.
