How do I clean my HOKA Mafate Speed 4 shoes?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stubborn stains, use mild soap and water. Allow the shoes to air dry.
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While the Mafate Speed 4 can be used on roads, they are primarily designed for trails. The aggressive lugs may feel less comfortable on paved surfaces.
