Mafate 5 W Skyward Blue/Black

The Mafate 5 Skyward Blue/Black is a women's trail running shoe from the brand Hoka.

An 5 innovative take on a model Mafate already well-established in the world of ultra-trail running, this shoe—which has always prioritised comfort and long-lasting stability—has been given a fresh new look incorporating the latest trends, whilst retaining its key features and even enhancing them further.

It features a wraparound mesh upper with anti-fraying treatment for enhanced durability and a dynamic stretch upper. The foot is effectively breathable whilst remaining protected, particularly as certain sensitive areas receive slight reinforcement. The sole has also been redesigned to incorporate technology Rocker Integrity designed to enhance the rebound and control.

Its thick midsole provides exceptional cushioning on varied terrain, and its external sole Vibram Megagrip ensures optimal grip on all surfaces, whether technical or slippery.

As you can Hoka see, this shoe is in top shape for high-performance long-distance runners, offering no compromise on comfort by combining cushioning and responsiveness with a thick, springy foam.

You’ll no doubt see her leading the race very soon – unless you’re wearing them yourself!
