Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your HOKA Speedgoat 7 hiking shoes, proper care is essential.
Setup: Ensure you select the correct size, as the Speedgoat series provides a structured fit designed for lockdown. If you frequently hike in dusty or gravelly areas, use the integrated gaiter attachment points to secure third-party gaiters.
Compatibility: These shoes work well with standard hiking socks; avoid extra-thick wool socks if you prefer a snug performance fit.
Care:
- Remove mud and dirt with a soft brush after each hike.
- Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the midsole foam.
- Do not machine wash, as this can degrade the specialized materials.
