Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Mafate 5 shoes, remove excess mud and debris after every use with a soft-bristled brush. If the shoes become heavily saturated, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the foam cushioning. If using the gaiter system, ensure the attachment points are free of dirt before securing your gaiters to ensure a snug, debris-proof seal. Check the outsole lugs periodically for wear, especially if you frequently transition between trails and road sections.
