FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

While they offer significant cushioning, the Mafate Speed 2 is specifically engineered for trail running and may feel overly robust for casual, everyday use on flat surfaces.

How do I determine the correct size?

It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the Hoka One One size chart. Trying them on in person is the best way to ensure a proper fit, especially considering the supportive nature of the shoe.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Mafate Speed 2?

The Mafate Speed 2 has a 4mm heel-to-toe drop.

Can I use these shoes for road running?

While the cushioning can handle some road sections, these shoes are optimized for off-road grip and terrain adaptation. The aggressive tread may wear down faster on pavement, and they lack the specific responsiveness suited for road surfaces.

How durable is the Vibram Mega-Grip outsole?

Vibram Mega-Grip is known for its excellent balance of grip and durability. However, excessive use on abrasive surfaces like concrete or asphalt can accelerate wear.

What is the main difference between Mafate Speed 2 and other Hoka trail shoes?

The Mafate Speed 2 is designed for maximum cushioning and support on extremely technical terrain over long distances, featuring a robust Vibram outsole and a deeper Active Foot Frame compared to some other Hoka trail models.

What material is the midsole made of?

The midsole is constructed from lightweight, cushioned CMEVA (Compression Molded EVA) foam.

Troubleshooting

Reduced grip on surfaces

Ensure the outsole is free from caked-on mud or debris. Clean the tread grooves with a brush. For worn-out treads, consider replacement.

Discomfort or pressure points

Verify you have the correct size and width. Try adjusting the lacing system to find a more secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure socks are appropriate for trail running.

Debris entering the shoe

Check that the tongue and lacing are snug. The external monomesh debris shield is designed to minimize this, but exceptionally fine debris may still enter. Consider using gaiters for extremely dusty or debris-filled conditions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip on diverse technical trails.
  • Superior cushioning for long-distance comfort.
  • Supportive design for stability on uneven ground.
  • Smooth transitions due to Meta-Rocker technology.
  • Durable construction for demanding use.

Cons

  • May feel bulky to runners accustomed to minimalist shoes.
  • The specific fit might not suit all foot shapes.
  • The multicolor design might not appeal to everyone.
  • Higher price point compared to standard running shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Mafate Speed 2 trainers are ready for use straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal performance and comfort.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for off-road running and trail use. They are compatible with various terrains, including dirt trails, rocky paths, and muddy conditions.

Care Instructions:

  • Clean the shoes after each use, especially after muddy runs.
  • Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and debris from the upper and outsole.
  • For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh detergents.
  • Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
  • Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
