Washing & Care Instructions

• Use a soft brush and cool, soapy water to clean the transparent upper; avoid machine washing to protect the technical midsole
• Regularly clear the Vibram outsole of stones and mud to ensure the Traction Lugs continue to provide maximum grip
• Never use a tumble dryer or direct heat source; instead, allow the shoes to dry at room temperature to preserve the bonded materials
• Remove the insoles after wet runs to allow the interior of the shoe to dry thoroughly and stay fresh

HOKA Mafate Speed 4 Lite - Our FAQs

1. Is the transparent upper durable enough for rough trails?
   Yes, despite its "see-through" appearance, the mesh is highly technical and reinforced with ripstop nylon to ensure it can handle the rigours of off-road use

2. Does the "Litebase" outsole mean it has less grip?
   Not at all. Vibram Litebase reduces the thickness of the rubber base to save weight, but the lugs themselves remain full depth and provide the same world class Megagrip traction

3. Can I wear these as everyday sneakers?
   Absolutely. While they are built for the trail, the Light Roast and Oatmilk colourway and minimalist design make them a popular choice for daily wear

4. Do I need to wear specific socks since the upper is see-through?
   Because the upper is transparent, your choice of sock will be visible. This allows you to further customise the look of the shoe with different colours or patterns
