FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Mafate Speed 2 is designed for breathability and drainage rather than waterproofing, meaning they may absorb water but will dry relatively quickly.

Can I use these for road running?

While they can be worn on the road, they are specifically optimized for trail terrain; the aggressive lug pattern may wear down faster on hard concrete.

Is this a unisex model?

Yes, this model is built on a unisex fit profile, suitable for both men and women when the appropriate UK size is selected.

How long do the outsoles typically last?

The Vibram Mega-Grip is very durable, but mileage varies based on surface harshness and running style. Generally, expect consistent traction for several hundred miles.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

Ensure there is roughly a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during long runs.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff when new

The Mafate Speed 2 may require a short break-in period of 10-20 miles to allow the midsole foam and upper materials to adapt to your foot shape.

Debris getting inside the shoe

Ensure the laces are secured firmly and consider using gaiters if running on loose scree or particularly sandy terrain.

Reduced traction on slick surfaces

Check the outsole for caked-on mud or debris. Use a stiff brush to clean the flex grooves and lug channels to restore grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional grip on technical surfaces via Vibram outsoles
  • High level of cushioning suitable for long-distance trail running
  • Excellent stability provided by the Active Foot Frame
  • Smooth gait transition thanks to Meta-Rocker technology
  • Durable enough for repeated use on rough ground

Cons

  • Heavier feel compared to lightweight speed shoes
  • Substantial stack height may reduce ground feel
  • Design is optimized for trails and may feel awkward on asphalt

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best experience, confirm your size corresponds to the UK 7.5 standard for this unisex model, noting that a proper fit is essential to benefit from the Active Foot Frame. When cleaning, remove loose dirt with a soft brush after your run and wash by hand using a mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or using high heat to dry, as this can damage the cushioning properties and adhesive bonds in the midsole. Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the foam.
