Hoka Men's Mafate 5

The HOKA Mafate 5 is a next-generation trail running shoe engineered for ultra-distance comfort, technical terrain traction, and uncompromising durability. Honoring the Mafate line’s heritage, the Mafate 5 combines proven trail innovations with HOKA’s signature plush cushioning, ensuring support and protection for your most demanding mountain adventures.

Responsive, Cushioned Ride:
The Mafate 5 boasts a high-volume, high-stack compression-molded EVA midsole, providing maximal shock absorption and a responsive, stable ride mile after mile. The updated midsole geometry maximizes comfort without sacrificing ground feel, making this shoe an ideal choice for ultra-marathons and back-to-back long trail days.

Engineered for the Trail:
The new Vibram® Megagrip outsole with 5mm multi-directional lugs delivers aggressive traction and sticky grip on both wet and dry surfaces, excelling on rugged, rocky, or muddy trails. Breathable and durable, the upper features reinforced overlays in high-wear areas, while a gusseted, dual-layer mesh tongue helps keep debris out and enhances lockdown.

Secure, Adaptive Fit:
An updated Active Foot Frame™ cradles your foot for inherent stability. The customizable lacing system adapts to unique foot shapes, and the padded collar and heel tab provide comfort for long days on your feet.
