The Hoka Mafate X is engineered for fast, long-distance trail racing, blending plush cushioning with responsive propulsion for technical terrain. Its dual-density midsole combines a PEBA core with a super-critically foamed EVA carrier, creating a lightweight yet highly durable platform built for extended efforts.
A forked carbon fibre plate provides a propulsive toe-off while maintaining stability on uneven ground. The ultralight woven upper promotes airflow and drainage, with a patent-pending dynamic vamp that adapts comfortably to different foot shapes and volumes.
Underfoot, the Vibram® Megagrip outsole with 3.5mm lugs and pod-like cutouts delivers confident grip and a smooth ride across mixed surfaces. Additional features include a protective toe cap, moulded TPU heel counter, reflective detailing, and Hoka’s signature MetaRocker™ for smooth, efficient transitions.
