Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The HOKA Mafate 5 is ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied securely to utilize the shoe's support features. If using the optional ankle gaiter, attach it according to its specific instructions, typically by hooking it to the lacing system or designated points on the shoe.
Compatibility:
This shoe is designed for compatibility with various trail conditions, from hard-packed dirt to rocky and muddy surfaces. It is not designed for road running specifically, although it can handle short paved sections.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, brush off loose dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or machines washing.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Remove insoles to aid in drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
