Hoka Mafate 5 Women's Trail Running Shoes Ambient Blue/Rosemary

The women's Hoka Mafate 5 is a premium ultra-distance trail running shoe designed and crafted to deliver long-lasting comfort and reliable protection for extended hours over rugged terrain. The Mafate 5 features a dual-density midsole that pairs soft supercritical foam in the heel and top layer of the forefoot with a firmer compression-moulded EVA base. Built with an ideal structure and composition for long efforts where efficiency matters, this midsole foam combination enables soft landings, stable transitions and a propulsive toe-off. A forefoot TPU plate provides additional stability with a responsive feel, while the shoe's rocker geometry keeps you moving smoothly with noticeably less effort.

Reinforced with an anti-fray treatment, the lightweight Warp Knit upper is durable through undergrowth and over rocky trails. The targeted tongue padding and a lace loop to prevent shifting which helps keep you free of distractions. The accommodating fit now has more room in the toe box, allowing for more natural toe splaying, and an extra eyelet for a heel-lock lacing option. The structure of the midsole means the foot sits inside it rather than on it, which adds stability to the fit, making the Mafate 5 a secure and confidence-inspiring choice for challenging trail conditions.

On the outsole, the Vibram Megagrip with 5mm lugs deliver excellent traction on multi-terrain conditions - wet, dry, soft and hard-packed trails. Even though the Mafate 5 has a high level of cushioning, it remains relatively lightweight—286g for women’s—and feels efficient in motion.

An ideal choice for high-mileage trail runs, ultra-distance racing and mountain adventures, this shoe will help preserve your legs during long runs and back-to-back training days. So if you're an ultra runner looking for maximum protection and a smooth, stable ride, this could be the shoe for you.
