FAQs
Is the HOKA Mafate Speed 2 true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard HOKA sizing, but since fit can be subjective, it is recommended to compare them with your current athletic footwear size.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the materials are durable, they are not explicitly marketed as waterproof. Avoid deep water submersion to keep the interior dry.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
Absolutely. The Mafate Speed 2 is designed with high-level cushioning specifically for long-distance trail performance.
What makes the XLIM collaboration version different?
The XLIM collaboration features a unique, burnished aesthetic and specific color palettes curated by Kim Dohee, distinguishing it from standard colorways.
Are these shoes suitable for gym workouts?
While they provide great stability, they are primarily designed for running and outdoor trekking. They are suitable for general gym use, though some may prefer a flatter sole for heavy weightlifting.
How do I ensure the best fit for a unisex shoe?
The unisex sizing is typically based on men's sizing standards. Women should check the size conversion charts to ensure the correct equivalent size is selected.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try a different lacing technique, such as the window lacing method, to relieve pressure on the midfoot area.
Visible dirt accumulation in the outsole lugs
Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear debris from the tread to maintain optimal traction.
Outer material showing signs of wear from elements
Clean gently with a damp cloth and re-apply a protective spray if recommended for the specific upper material type.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Mafate Speed 2 trainers, it is important to follow basic care guidelines. For initial setup, ensure the laces are tensioned comfortably across the midfoot to secure the lockdown without restricting circulation. Because these shoes use specialized materials for the 'burnished' look, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild, non-abrasive soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can warp the cushioning components and damage the exterior finish. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation.
