The Men's Hoka Mafate X is a trailblazing shoe engineered for ultramarathon distances and rugged terrains. It represents a significant evolution in Hoka's trail running lineup, combining maximal cushioning with responsive propulsion.
At the heart of the Mafate X is a dual-density midsole featuring a PEBA core—known for its lightweight and high energy return—encased in a supercritical EVA foam carrier. This combination delivers a plush yet responsive ride, ideal for long-distance trail running. Enhancing forward propulsion is a forked carbon fiber plate embedded within the midsole, which aids in reducing fatigue over extended runs.
The shoe's upper is constructed from an ultralight woven textile that offers excellent breathability and quick drainage, crucial for wet and variable trail conditions. A patent-pending dynamic vamp adapts to foot movements, providing a secure and comfortable fit. Additional features include a gusseted tongue to prevent debris intrusion, a protective toe cap, and a molded TPU heel counter for added stability.
Underfoot, the Mafate X is equipped with a Vibram® Megagrip outsole, renowned for its exceptional traction on diverse terrains. The outsole incorporates pod-like cutouts, contributing to a smoother ride over uneven surfaces. With a stack height of 49mm at the heel and 41mm at the forefoot, the shoe maintains an 8mm drop, promoting a balanced and efficient stride.
Weighing in at approximately 12.1 ounces (344 grams) for a men's size 10, the Mafate X manages to offer substantial cushioning without compromising on weight. Reflective details enhance visibility in low-light conditions, making it a versatile choice for various trail running scenarios.
The Men's Hoka Mafate X stands out as a high-performance trail running shoe that seamlessly blends comfort, support, and propulsion. Its advanced features cater to the demands of ultrarunners and trail enthusiasts seeking a reliable and responsive shoe for challenging terrains.
