Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your HOKA Gaviota 6 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the internal lacing system is adjusted to your foot shape; the midfoot should feel snug without restricting blood flow.
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow 15-20 miles for the cushioning to adapt to your unique stride.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the mesh upper. For deeper stains, hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Never place these trainers in a washing machine or dryer, as high heat can damage the foam and adhesive.
- Air Dry: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
