Women's HOKA Mafate 5

Soft Cushioning Meets Rugged Toughness in This Trail Cruiser

When your off-road runs include going the extra mile, you need a rugged yet comfortable shoe that can handle all your technical trail miles. Fortunately, the Mafate 5 from HOKA is up for this task. With a high, dual-layer midsole platform, aggressive outsole, and impact-absorbing design, you can feel confident that this durable trail running shoe is in it for the long haul.

The midsole is composed of two foams: a soft, bouncy super critical foam for maximum comfort underfoot, and a dependable, impact-absorbing foam closer to the ground. This dual-layer construction blends comfort and protection to help you stay on your feet for longer. The curved Rocker Integrity Technology in the midsole also helps guide you forward on trails, all while allowing you to maintain stability and control.

Underneath, enjoy more control with a Vibram Megagrip outsole with Traction Lug technology. The 5 mm lugs bite into the ground, providing sure and secure footing, even on technical, uneven terrain.

When you’re running through rocky, debris-heavy surfaces, you need maximum durability in every element of the shoe. This is where the warp knit upper comes into play. The anti-fray treatment maximizes durability, and the TPU cage keeps your feet stable and locked in place as you move. There are even gaiter attachment points for even more customizable protection.
