Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Mach X Caged trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Because of the Pebax plate, we recommend wearing the shoes for a few short, easy runs to allow the foam and structure to adapt to your foot shape before attempting long-distance or high-intensity workouts.
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard performance sizing. If you prefer a wider toe box or wear thicker orthotics, you may consider a half-size adjustment.
- Cleaning: Clean the mesh and TPU cage using a soft brush and lukewarm water. Avoid using harsh detergents or putting the shoes in the washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can compromise the integrity of the Pebax plate and bonding agents.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat sources, which can degrade the performance foam over time.
