FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the transparent upper?

The transparent upper provides a lightweight, breathable, and minimalist aesthetic, blurring the lines between performance and style.

How does the Vibram® Megagrip outsole perform?

The Vibram® Megagrip outsole with Litebase and Traction Lug technology is engineered for excellent grip and traction on both wet and dry, varied terrains.

Is this shoe suitable for intense trail running?

While it features trail technology, its minimalist aesthetic and lightweight design make it ideal for lighter trails, everyday wear, and a blend of performance and style rather than extreme technical terrain.

How should I clean the transparent upper?

Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then rinse lightly. Always air dry.

What does ProFly™ Midsole offer?

The ProFly™ Midsole provides a responsive yet cushioned feel, enhancing comfort and energy return during wear.

What is the main difference between this and the standard Mafate Speed 4?

The 'Lite' version features a featherweight, see-through upper that emphasizes a minimalist aesthetic, while retaining the core trail technology of the Mafate Speed 4 base.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the transparent upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Upper appears dirty quickly

Wipe down the transparent upper regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaning tools.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

Ensure the Vibram® Megagrip outsole is free from mud or debris. The compound is designed for wet grip, but heavy contamination can affect performance.

Discomfort during long wear

Check if the lacing is too tight or too loose. Ensure the foot is positioned correctly within the shoe. Consider if the minimalist design meets your specific support needs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply unbox and they are ready for use.

Compatibility: Designed for adult unisex use, suitable for various foot shapes. The size 6.5 UK is a standard fit.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Due to the transparent nature of the upper, regular cleaning is recommended. Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and smudges. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
  2. Outsole Maintenance: Brush off any excess dirt or mud from the outsole after use.
  3. Laces: Hand wash laces separately if they become soiled.
  4. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources to preserve material integrity.
