HOKA Mafate Speed 4 Lite - Our FAQs

1. How does the Lite version differ from the standard Mafate? The Lite version focuses on reducing weight through a woven upper and Litebase outsole while maintaining the same elite grip.

2. Is the outsole suitable for wet conditions? Yes, the Vibram Megagrip compound is specifically engineered to provide confidence on wet, slick, and mossy surfaces.

3. Can I use these for road running? While they excel on trails, the cushioning is substantial enough for road sections, though the lugs will wear faster on tarmac.
