Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your HOKA Gaviota 6, start by ensuring you have the correct size and width, as the shoe comes in various widths for optimal fit. During the initial setup, experiment with the internal lacing tension; you want a secure midfoot wrap that does not cut off circulation.
Care instructions include:
- Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging in water.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can warp materials.
- Rotation: To extend the life of the outsole, allow the shoe foam to recover for 24 hours between runs if you train daily.
