Hoka Mafate Hike Men's Hiking Shoes

Go higher, faster and longer with less in the new Mafate Hike. This hiker adds all the long-haul upgrades you need and none you don't.

Matryx Mesh Upper

Showcasing a highly resistant upper, the Hoka Mafate Hike ensures protection from a variety of elements to make sure you reach your destination still swathed in dry comfort. The upper utilises Matryx, which is a high performance textile that is highly durable against possible bumps and snags while on unpredictable trails. Made with tight-knitted mesh, dirt is prevented from entering the shoe without sacrificing air flow, with perforations within the upper allowing for air to circulate effectively around the foot. Helping heat to escape and in turn allowing cool freshness to enter, reducing fatigue and boosting motivation to push onwards. The boots feature Hoka's stretchy, patent-pending dynamic vamp which allows you to move with better comfortability and flex without sacrificing the durability within the boot, providing a running shoe-like flex. A TPU Heel Clip has been implemented into the design, providing crucial stability when covering uneven terrain by locking the heel into place for less unwanted shift within the boot, while an ARIAPRENE collar has been utilised to prevent unwanted debris and dirt from entering and causing discomfort. Finally, a quick lace system has been added for quick and easy midfoot lockdown that keeps your foot secure without worry of laces coming undone.

Dual-Density EVA Midsole

Providing targeted support and plush cushioning underfoot, the midsole of the Mafate Hike offers soft comfort without compromising the structural integrity. The midsole keeps you swaddled in a plush comfort underfoot. Ensuring outstanding energy return, experience propulsive boosts to every step while your feet stay feeling soft and fresh, provide you with a soft landing. When striking down on unforgiving surfaces, shock is absorbed into the foam, dissipating direct impact and protecting your joints and feet from injury. While the stability component within the midsole ensures you stay confident in your step while trapsing over uneven ground.

Vibram Megagrip Outsole

Offering highly sticky grip and traction, the Mafate Hike features a single, full length rubber outsole of Vibram Megagrip. This adds durability to the sole of the boot for longevity in wear and shields you from sharp sticks and stones for a distraction-less hike. This high performance rubber compound offers unparalleled grip properties on both dry and wet terrains and is up to any challenge on every kind of terrain. It give you confidence and control, while maintaining an optimal balance between stability and flexibility for ground adaptation. Traction lugs have been added along the full length of the outsole, helping you grip easily when climbing, cornering and descending as they help you bite down into soft and slippy surfaces.
